May Allah bless my parents, they taught my brother how to cook, do his own laundry, clean his room, do his share of house chores. They taught him to respect women, treat them as an equal and never disregard their opinion. All of this and he’s 13 years old ma shaa Allah, they raised him like the rest of us and didn’t treat him special just because he’s the only boy with four sisters in the family. They did not shy away from teaching him what periods are, why it’s okay to see women eat during Ramadan and pregnancy. My mother and father both sat him down to talk about them like they did with my sister and I because believe it or not kids his age already have an idea but no one to discuss with. They got all of us comfortable to ask questions about human sexuality instead of learning false information that we pick up from surrounding. Sometimes when we’re too young to discuss a topic they’ll give a brief summary and discuss it further as we age. I thank them for that because my sister and I grew up very well educated and aware, I’m glad they’re doing the same with my brother no exceptions. Education is key, do not be ashamed, don’t follow cultural norms that develop gender superiority and ignorance.
