As I think about the today's theme - it reminds me of Thomas Edison, the man who invented the electric bulb. He had made a famous statement "Things are 99% perspiration, 1% inspiration"
Same applies to men's rights movement as well. It is a matter of constant awareness campaign and hitting at our opponents and proponents of male abuse. Contrary to popular belief, it is 3 times easier to abuse a male than a female because males have no support structure and male abuse is accepted by the society as social service.
A shift in this attitude is the key to success of the men's rights movement be it anywhere in the world. The attitude shift is a major shift and it needs a lot of efforts to put in merely because the worms of male hatred are too many and are loitering around in the society in large nos.
A massive awareness campaign, especially targeted to the police, lawyers, judiciary and media is needed. And this massive awareness campaign needs perspiration and not inspiration. Because inspiration happens once in life when the man faces the abuse and then decides to fight for his rights.
But it is extremely important to continue the momentum in form of various activities be it activism opposing gender biased policies by the Government, or listening to men with problems, or counseling them through personal empowerment, etc. All of this need a lot of perspiration and without that perspiration the inspiration is useless and ineffective.
In fact it is line with Edison's statement that it is 99% Perspiration and 1 % Inspiration.
