Why is it so difficult to write about something that seems so obvious and urgent? Can it have something to do with that very obviousness itself? What if we were to switch codes for a second and change the title to Creating a safer Bangladesh for men. How absurd does that sound? Almost everyone I presented this alternate title to either smiled or scoffed, regardless of their gender. Yet Creating a safer Bangladesh for women seems entirely apt; with an endless barrage of stories of violence in the media, it almost feels as if now is the worst time ever to be a woman. As much as I clearly appreciate such concerns, however, this underlying saviour-complex bothers me to no end. Are women an endangered species that need to be kept safe in a sanctuary? It is great that we are now having a conversation around women s safety, but how about we make it a conversation about equality instead?

Bangladesh Mahila Parishad has expressed grave concern and resentment over the torture of a housewife after an attempt to rape her in Noakhali's Hatiya upazila and circulation of the footage of the incident on social media. The organisation released a statement regarding this yesterday after many dailies published news about the incident.
