Information misconception

Women Empowerment, Women Freedom of speech and expression, freedom of choice, and so on, keep feminism apart consider the humanity. All those rights are fundamental rights for every citizen in the country. But conditions apply; your freedom shouldn't disturb, shouldn't cause disturbance to the society and other fellows around you. Freedom comes with responsibility; otherwise, one should have to face the consequences.

But yes, when it comes to fundamental rights from the constitution of India, Women are suppressed by the society of their own and another gender. There are new laws and new amendments to the constitution allowing women to grow personally, socially, and economically. But the other side of the coin is misusing the laws, rights, and freedom (not only women but everyone).

Sexual education is vital to suppress gender inequality and crime against women. But there are different levels in sexual education. There shouldn't be information overload because it leads to misconceptions, which in turn, causes a dangerous effect on teenagers and younger minds. Getting sexual education is essential, but when, how, what, and from whom is important.

A girl or boy at the age of 15 or 16 (teenage) should know their other gender body and biological body, good touch, bad touch, social etiquettes, etc. But not about sexual violence, virginity breaking, public romance. Even if one wants to know about them, they should get this information from their mother, father, or brother. But not from social media. Social media is toxic most of the time because there's no control over the information available or shared. So there are more chances of getting misinformation or misconception. 

We can not control the information in social media, but we can control our kids, brother, or sister.
