The image below is about portrait of Aceh women during the conflict.
No Woman No Cry
Today I will do my first post in Tag Feminism. Talking about feminism means talking about women. I remembered the old song titled: No Woman No Cry. What is a woman? I think women do not have male genitals and men do not have female genitals. Often the position of women in the social fabric of society is misunderstood by most people.
It was a time when people began to move on to a technological system that was more sophisticated and efficient, but still to be paid handsomely by workers who managed to create the age of modernization. Almost all the work can be done by the machine, and the manufacture of the machine was inseparable from the workers' labor.
The description of the exploitation gradually moves women's hearts to get compensation for some of the missing rights, such as lower wages of male workers, rationed meals that are only prepared in moderation compared to those received by male workers.
This inequality caused a very sharp divide between the two genders because they felt abused, in the end, there was a movement that embraced the cry of the women workers and those who shared the fate of exploitation of themselves and their people.
The industrial revolution is not merely symbolized by the status of a nation that has innovated in technology, but more than is presumed that the industrial revolution also provides the way and also the opportunity for the bourgeoisie to treat female workers like a slave.
I once discussed this with one of the theologians of Islam. He said that actually ironing clothes, cooking, washing clothes are not women's work in Islam.
A husband must use the services of people when to do this because this is not the work of women. But most women do not understand this, so their position is only in the kitchen. In the Western world, this becomes even more complicated because religious doctrine has shaped God as the man who certifies that men are more important than women. Worse still in the ancient Greek myth, women are considered as unlucky carriers. These dark myths have placed women as less important creatures.
Let's look back a moment how the position of women in Indonesia, especially in Aceh, the land of my birth. One thing is for sure, women have power, past reality at least proves how Cut Nyak Dhien, and other Acehnese women lead the war against the Dutch. The heroic attitude of Acehnese women is still attached to the present day, Aceh women today are not less great. Acehnese women, the beauty is sure, soft not to be asked, but the most amazing they can smile between conflict and war.
They really understand the function of their presence in this world, as an example. Their love for a loved one (child and husband) is not only heroic but visionary. The widows of conflict almost no one complains when Aceh is peaceful, they prefer to make their children better than before.
Acehnese women, who are teenagers and college-age how? Generally educated people will love to teach, sell cookies, or other economic activities to help their parents finance college. So reasonable when friends outside looking for a potential wife from Aceh.
Generally, Aceh women have cooking skills, it means that for kitchen business do not be asked satisfaction when having the woman from Aceh. This is not a promotion but the fact is, some Acehnese women are smart to dance.
Acehnese women who are in college, filling the holiday, not with fun. For those who have fields and fields, they do not hesitate to help both parents in the fields and fields. There are also those working in coffee shops, and other positive activities.
But one thing that makes men in Aceh often disappointed is, it is very difficult to make Acehnese women fall in love. Pearls are not objects arbitrarily, getting them is indeed a happiness. The effort to win the hearts of Acehnese women needs extra effort.
