Renowned actress and theatre artist Sania Saeed’s recent appearance on the Podcast by Adnan Faisal has left viewers and readers quite impressed by her perspective on what true feminism is.
In contradiction to the popular understanding of what feminism represents, Sania Saeed shares how this ideology is relevant for both men and women and infact highly essential for men.
She further explains how feminism is not just limited to women, infact it plays a pivotal role for many men out there and is not a war between both the genders. She shares that this concept has been severely distorted and accustomed to the mainstream ideologies whereas that is not the case. The entire purpose is to create a safe society where our mothers, sisters and daughters can enjoy their freedom without any fear. Infact when she leaves the house, she should be considered the daughter of not just the neighbourhood, but the entire country.
The actress stated “it is not a war! It includes the man who cannot sleep at night because his daughter is out in an extremely unsafe environment’.
Audiences have shared massive appreciation for this progressive thought process and insights shared by the senior artist on how this society needs to work on changing the typical norms and offer behavioural therapy for those men that are actively posing to be problematic and infact require help. She states “It is also about the driver who keeps adjusting his rearview mirror to stare at women. You think he is a normal person? This is the behavior of a disturbed individual! We need to work for him too”.
