The woman is the more oppressed of the two. Once the revolution begins, obviously man too will be liberated. But just as woman gives birth to the man, woman will also need to give birth to the freedom of man. Man will not be able to give birth to his own freedom. Freedom, too, will be born out of woman.
But that does not seem to be happening. Woman remains terribly body-identified. And that which you call as modernity, or liberation, or even feminism, is unfortunately even more body-centric. It’s just that now the body-centricity is a little hidden.
There is only one way to go beyond the body, and that is the way of Truth, the way of spirituality.
