Seeta to Afghan Men - Listen Up! I am Human Too!

clipped from www.awwproject.org

Dear Men

Just one time, look. I am also human.
You are not Allah’s only creation.
Look, I can work and study.
Look, I am not for sale
Look, I am not in the world to be under your direction
I am not an object made to bend to your will.
I am human, and I breathe as you do
I want to marry by my choice, not yours.
I know you never want to see a woman in a higher position than you
But you should remember that
Women can support their country and people
They can be prosecutors, they can be police
They can fight against crimes.
Instead, because of men, women are the main victims of crime.
Why can’t you accept us?
