"This Court hortatively commends the official policymakers and influencers in the field of education - from its inception level - to bestow attention to this; to facilitate which", said the Court.
“Boys, even from a very young age, often grow up with certain sexist stereotypes - reinforced by peer and other social influences. Showing a girl/woman respect and honour is not old-fashioned; on the contrary, it is a virtue for all times. Sexism is not acceptable or “cool”.
One exhibits strength when he respects a girl/woman.
Respectfulness is an imperative that needs to be inculcated very young. How one treats a woman gives an insight into his upbringing and personality”.
Justice Devan Ramachandran observed that the concepts of masculinity have changed, but it needs to change more.
The Court added that our educational system seldom focuses on Character building and solely focuses on academic results and employability and it is time to shift attention to value education – so that our children grow up to be well-adjusted adults.
