Gold, Money and Daughters: The Properties we Keep in Lockers
My father once shared a saying by a saint with me “If we plant a sapling in the shade of a big tree, it will never grow to the heights it is supposed to. Move that sapling away from the tree’s shade and it will grow up into a bigger tree. These saplings are like children, you have to give them some space and freedom to make them strong, independent and successful.” These lines were something he actually preached because the amount of freedom I got from my parents is unimaginable. In my small life of 28 years, not even once I was told that I can’t do anything because I am a female.
Why we women are always rude at the start?

You may be offended
But truth is truth!
So, no apology extended
As a man, have you ever felt that when you first met an unknown woman and started a conversation, she was unreasonably rude? Short answers, blank expressions, and mild aggression even when you were as nice as possible? The reason you felt this way is because you are absolutely correct, we women are rude and no we are not regretful about it.
Sorry Mumma
Dear Mumma,
I am sorry, I failed you. Believe me, I tried. I tried everything that you and papa said, everything that he and his family said. But it was not enough. It was never enough.
Rape Culture – Where are we Lacking?
Nirbhaya case, Kathua case or the Unnao one, these are just drops in the sea. It’s a painful reality that rapes happen every day, everywhere and many of them go unreported. Obviously, we need stricter laws to tackle the situation but these alone won’t be enough. As a society, we are making this rape culture grow within us. Here are some of my personal opinions regarding this issue.
