Question Description
Directions: Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. A word has been highlighted for your attention.In the current world, there are strong stances that women are taking to support causes, such as the #MeToo movement that started in the U.S. and took down power-players like Harvey Weinstein and Roy Price and is now a force to reckon within India.The abuse of power by men in high offices has been an open secret. Many women across industries have been subject to lewd remarks, suggestive behavior, and assault — and have often been penalized for rejecting such advances.Many women have been empowered by the #MeToo platform to be able to take on powerful bullies. A big boon for feminism, #MeToo has also given women a tool against oppressors in influential positions. As sexual harassment is considered a serious offense when proven beyond a reasonable doubt, the men stand to lose their sources of income as well as public reputation. Social media has, thus, been a huge platform in helping women to be able to express their ordeal as well as find solidarity and support.A corollary to the same is the apparent misuse of these tools by some for personal agendas. Many women are choosing to lash out at ex-lovers and blame them for harassment. Consent is imperative in every relationship; however, a mutual relationship (irrespective of the state of it) cannot be comparable to the exploitation of women employees at workplaces by men in senior positions.A lot of women anonymously share stories about their harassers but refuse to take further legal or police action. This raises questions on the ingenuity of their claims.Such actions not only allow the men in question to go scot-free but also cast a shadow on theveracityof the victims’ claims. If an untoward incident did occur, the sufferer must be willing to follow the proper channel to lodge a complaint and seek support for the same. It takes immense courage for a survivor to come out in public and relive her ordeal, and she must be believed and supported.In such an atmosphere, false claims by a few women cast a net of suspicion on all allegations. Using social media to name and shame an alleged perpetrator just to settle a personal score under the garb of #MeToo is a disservice to women who genuinely need the aid of the movement.To achieve a balance, it is important to fairly assess each situation while taking a neutral approach in dealing with both the parties involved — the man and women.This article does not attempt to undermine the need for women to assert themselves. Neither does it aim to question the legitimacy of all the complainants rallying behind the #MeToo movement. It only aims to argue that as we propose to create a more equal society, we must not let the oppressed assume the role of the oppressors. While there are great tools at our disposal, they also come with great responsibility.Q. How has social media proved to be beneficial for women?a)It helps women to share their miseryb)It helps women to gather support from other peoplec)Both 1 and 2d)None of the aboveCorrect answer is option 'C'.
