oppressed and liberated


Both groups can be liberated and oppressed at the same time in different ways. Banning burqa as a way to liberate muslim women is simplify the problem without offering any solution. The same thing as banning bikini and regulate women to wear headscarf. The most important thing is consciousness, whether women conscious with their fashion choice or not. Here is the way if you want to liberate women: give us access to education the same way as man, minimise salary gap between both gender, and end any kind of misogyny. That will bring better result rather than banning bikini or burqa because we are more than just a shell.

Teman Perempuan

Saya tumbuh besar tanpa punya teman dekat karena domisili selalu berpindah-pindah setiap 5 tahun. Saya tidak pernah punya teman yang, misalnya, sudah 20 tahun berteman baik. Yah, paling-paling saya cuma punya satu teman yang saya kenal sejak TK kecil, itu pun tak terlalu dekat, dan teman yang saya kenal sejak kelas 6 SD.

Katanya, dia kecewa kami tak melakukan upacara pernikahan, karena dia ingin sekali berpidato di pernikahan Giles. Lalu saya pikir, siapa yang kira-kira akan saya pilih untuk berpidato kalau kami memutuskan untuk mengadakan acara pernikahan? Ketika saya bilang saya tak memikirkan urusan pertemanan, bukan berarti saya pikir teman itu tidak penting. Sebelumnya, saya hanya tak pandai saja menjaga hubungan pertemanan ja

who do you think you are?

So, why you suddenly want to meet? Nothing, just want to catch up. We haven't talk forever! I know, I don't want to talk to, need sometimes to figure it out. I told you that. How's life? Good, travel a lot, bunch of meeting, bunch of holiday. How's work? Not really good, haven't made a deal ever since. Do you feel happy? Do I feel happy? Generally of course I feel happy. What do you mean? You know, after the break up, are you ok? Are you happy? What? Who do you think you are so I should feel unhappy? I mean of course I was sad, and sometimes can't help myself but reminiscing those happy moments. But that's the way it is, that's relationship. Sometimes some knuckle head took your heart and lost it, then you feel sad, then life goes on. But it's not a reason to feel unhappy. Come on, who do you think you are? You know... I don't know... I just concern... But yeah, glad you're ok.
