I hate MCPs

It was International Nurses day 2 days back….a day to remember the angels who perform miracles in our lives!!!! They are the first ones to carry us, bathe us before placing us into our mother’s arms!!!! Most often these nurses are ill-treated and less paid!!!! I have heard people (mostly Keralites) saying they marry a nurse so as to settle abroad!!!! A nurse is their key to a foreign country where mostly these so-called husbands never do any job at all….and when asked…they just say….”Job??...why the hell???...my wife is a nurse!!!!”
In Kerala, girls specially from the middle class families end up taking a General nursing or a B.Sc nursing course to get into a hospital which could pay them salary to repay their family’s debt!!!! They somehow manage to pay the fees for all the semesters and finally end up in a bond with a hospital!!! Many aspire to move out of the country so as to bring their family out off financial constraints!!! They search ads which recruit nurses abroad, attend IELTS classes, forward applications for their visas…..but how many of them succeed in getting into their final destination???? Cheating comes to the forefront again….. agents cheat these girls….in the form of gulping the entire money they invested into the visa application or landing them up in places of forced prostitution!!!! Now this post can be related to the Malayalam movie “22 Female Kottayam” !!! I wanted to write on this subject and the film really inspired me to write this post!!!! I don’t know if everyone in that character’s situation can do such a revenge…. But what she did was apt!!!! She was cheated and raped twice!!!! And she managed to settle old scores with the villains!!!! Now that was in a film!!!! When a woman is trapped in such a way,is it possible for her to regain strength and strike back….what if she was forced into prostitution…locked up in a room…..what if she was molested……what if she was abused physically and mentally?????? I really don’t know how to end this post…but I deeply wish…that the women out there…anywhere in any corner of the world…who is in a similar position…May God give them the strength to fight back for what people did to them….for what they lost!!!! Im feminist…not a hardcore though…… and I hate Male chauvinist pigs!!!!
