It is mere humbug , this Internatuional women’s day and all.We are given such bits of carrots to pull on!!! How long we can hoodwink ourselves???? We have to come out of the cocoons. But I warn you, it is not safe to travel alone, let alone try to enjoy a vacation single. In our place if u do so u will either be in a rescue home or in a sex racket.

I second every single thing you said there! But… the thing is…i really do have double standards, i kind of like guy’s opening doors, pulling out chairs, offering seats on public transport – though nowadays i’m sure i get that more out of sympathy as they see me trying to restrain an active toddler than any chivalry, but hey – i’ll take it

Well written…I strongly feel the same …leabve me alone becoz im a woman …let me do what i wnat to do …feel like screaming to this mad world why cant they just let me do what I want to do ….its not about being feminist but even our constitution creates this bias by allocating woman’s qouta ….why they feel we wre incapable of competing or are they scared?????
