What Happened To Women Empowerment?

Whenever I see the local news, I am afraid to admit that it is quite inevitable now to encounter news about Pinays being raped in the Middle East. The worse thing about this is they are videotaped and some evil arabos send the videos to their peers and sell it or even sell the poor Pinay.

Sigh.

Good thing Pinays now are more brave and smart. They report these cases to the embassy. I just hope their cases would be noticed and be regarded as highly urgent.

Naisip ko lang, bakit hindi kasi ang mga husbands nila ang makipagsapalaran sa ibang bansa? Why do they let their wives leave and live with horny strangers? How come they let their wives??? Why not them instead?

Yun lang.

mayroon tayong tinatawag na feminization of labor. mas marami nang kababaihan ang sumasalang sa work force dahil mas mura ang pasweldo sa kanila at ang mga trabaho na napapasukan nila ay yung extension ng kanilang trabaho sa bahay (ex. karamihan ay domestic workers at factory workers na repretitive at monotonous ang gawain).

sa paglipas ng panahon, parami na rin ng parami ang mga pinay na nangingibang bansa pati mga propesyunal katulad ng nurses at guro. ito naman ang tinatawag na feminization of migration. kakabit pa rin yan ng feminization of labor kung saan ang mga malalaking korporasyon ay nagpapasweldo ng kakarampot upang mas lumaki ang kanilang tubo.

ang ofws ang nag-aakyat ng pinakamalaking kita sa gobyerno. dapat ay stop-gap measure lamang ang pagtatrabaho sa ibang bansa at mas pagtuunan ng pansin ang pagpapalago ng lokal na ekonomiya. ngunit mukhang permanente na itong kalakaran base na rin sa pandaigdigang kalakaran ng paggawa na pagkamal ng maraming tubo at the expense of workers especially from third world countries. hindi rin naman natin masisisi ang ating mga kababayan na nangingibang bansa dahil gusto lamang nilang guminhawa ang kanilang pamumuhay.

bakit hindi na lang ang mga lalaking asawa ang mag-abroad? marami din namang lalake ang nagtatrabaho bilang construction workers, drivers atbp. sa dubai nga ay mas malaki na ang bilang ng mga migrante kesa lokal na residente. mapa-babae, mapalalake, pareho silang nag-aasam na mag-abroad at maiahon ang kanilang pamilya. yun nga lang at sa lipunan natin, mas may pressure na magtrabaho ang lalake dahil sila ang tinuturing na breadwinners o main providers. ang kababaihan ay dapat nasa bahay lang at nag-aalaga ng anak. yan din ang dahilan kung bakit sila ay tinuturing na secondary earners at tumatanggap ng mas mababang sweldo kesa kalalakihan. syempre iba pa yung kaso ng power women na nasa mataas na antas ng lipunan. dangkasi lang ay mas mayorya ang nasa naghihirap na uri na me mababang skills at antas ng pinag-aralan kaya mas bulnerable sila sa pang-aabuso at eksploytasyon.

at dahil nga marami nang naga-abroad na kababaihan, marami ring naiiwan na kalalakihan. yung iba ay may trabaho, yung iba ay nagiging househusbands. dahil mas mataas na ang kita ni misis, nagkakaroon ng shift sa relasyon nila at sa pamilya. mas may say na rin si misis sa pagdedesisyon, hindi lang sa paghawak ng pera kundi sa pagpapatakbo ng kabahayan. dito nagkakaroon ng conflict dahil nasanay si mister na sya ang haligi ng pamilya.
