Happy Woman's Day

Yes so you feel proud, a day dedicated to celebrating who you are! A woman!! 

Its funny though because you still objectify her in simplest of things. To elaborate I shall never know how a bikini clad woman can sell a/c's. You sexually abuse her everyday, you look at her with utter lust in your eyes, you torture her, you burn her, you rape her, kill her. Its always facinated me that in a country like India, where you devote yourself to goddess's, you do not even spare a two or a three year old. 

Yes I am lucky enough to be born into a family with modern thinking, given a chance to study and become friends with like minded people. Given a chance to prove myself, to truly empower myself. Blessed to work with some pretty powerful women but still there is so little u can do to change the mindset of certain people. 

When you look for a soul mate there are people who still think and want a docile, coy and/or a person they can dominate. Sometimes it shocks me that this is a demand of educated so called metrosexual men who claim to be intouch with their sensitive side. 

A day dedicated to ladies will not change those lecherous looks,unwanted physical contact,kissing faces or dirty comments. What we need is to raise men, who respect women and give them the respect they deserve. 

So for now, ill accept this hope. Have a great woman's day coz u know we rock!!
