Day 212 (The self-analysis..!!)

A few days ago, my would-be-life-partner told me that I might not know but "I hate men"! I was shocked to hear that. I didn't believe at first and also thought of snapping out at him. But somewhere I had a doubt...do I actually hate men? :-P

I then started analyzing myself next day onwards-

  • I was coming out very strong on feminine issues. 
  • I was sharing all "MARD (Men against Rape and Discrimination)" photos on facebook. I even bought one of those t-shirts too! 
  • I murmured "pervert" to every itchy guy I see on the bus.
  • I was raising my voice and coming out strong for all wrong-doings done by the men in my office too!!
  • I pity on every pregnant woman I see while commuting and imagine that why her useless husband is not picking and dropping her in this condition?


So maybe without realising, or without intending, I had actually started hating men!! But this is not good ..! To support a side, you don't have to oppose the other and we can't generalise things as well and put it on the head of all the men in the world!

So then .. I re-analysed..!! :-P

Well...

  • I am supporting this propaganda of MARD ...initiated my a man (Farhan Akhtar). 
  • The feminine issues on which I was speaking up on my blogs or social-networking status, even my would-be-life-partner and my dad are raising voices on those issues. 
  • I call those itchy guys in the bus as perverts but I get up from my seat to help an elderly gentleman to relax too. 
  • Then there is a guy in my office who is not a chauvinist and I felt really angry when I got to know that a female colleague complaint about him for none of his fault..!! 
  • And I see and know many non-pregnant women too whose husband take care of them without any physical dependency of their wives on them! 


So no Mr. would-be !! I don't hate men. I hate a category of them. And I hate that category quite strongly. Which is fair I guess... :-)

    Glad to know that you don't have a biased opinion about all men...they are not alike and it is important to put things in proper perspective,although you are well justified in raising feminist issues...

DAY 321 (Bring the change!)

 If you are a mother and if you keep cribbing about societal issues and the way kids have been brought up in our generation, keep reading. Well, every generation have their own issues and we all progress in a way or another. But even after generations of changes there is one common issue which is discussed in all forums (professional and personal/ formal and informal/ planned and unplanned) is patriarchy.  I am not one of those feminist who advocate for the world to turn into a matriarch to take revenge on the oppression generations of women have been facing. I honestly vote for equality. And I think most of us do. However, what do we actually do to bring that change?  Apart from discussing and being profound at the takeaways, I don’t think there is any progressive step that we actually take. I do feel that to take the step it does not have to be groundbreaking. Everything starts at home and so this solution starts at home too.  Most of the time, we start discussing ...

DAY 91 (Yukkkk..!!!)

Another GODFATHER for guys is out now....and yes I am talking about LSD (Love Sex and Dhoka) ! Standing ovation for Miss Ekta Kapoor who chose to leap from the head to toe covered Saas and bahus to directly all nude perverts...!!  I have seen guys being so curious for this movie probably because its been a long time after DEV D for them to watch something "meaningful" like this. I find you tube links of the promos and the special songs of the movie in their social networking site's status and they are just so proud of that. I am ...and I am sure every girl is amazed with the criteria of their meaningfulness! Either everything yukkkyyyy is just their type or they have not been keen to explore any other thing in the world than this! I am sick and tired of the caller tunes which I get to hear now whenever I call up any one of them and then I just do not want to talk any further after that. I believe learning Biology compulsorily till class 10th atleast has given only t...

DAY 105 (When life is awesome...!!)

As I was about to join a job...people told me..that you are gonna lose all your independence and happiness now....cutting off the social network by default...and then you'll realize...what a mess it is and what golden days those 10 "doing-nothing" months were! I used to just shrug it off...because I do not like to predict like everyone else. And now...most of them have got the answers. I have never been happier than this. I do all I missed to do ever...all I loved to do ever...with my grey cells working in parallel as well which is like a perk! Playing table tennis,an urge to learn guitar or atleast try to do so was like few of the things I could never carry on with...due to zillions of factors. But where there is a will...there is a way! I got all I desired packed up in the most beautiful and satisfactory environment ever. What else could I ask for? I have met like some of the most interesting and loveliest people ever (I know...that in professional life...everyon...
