Promises and compliments might mean something completely different to men and women. It is always the woman who suffers. A poem.
Love, marriages or even life is built on commitments and promises, isn’t it? Here are some poems which would define ‘her’ tragedies which she never deserved but was always ‘promised’.
‘She’ over here is you, me or any woman who has been through any of this. To all those women who have ever been cheated on pretext of promises or manipulations, taken advantage of their softer side or betrayed – No matter what, you are strong and beautiful!
I love you for your inner beauty – he said
He was right.
He cried “You don’t love me!” until she undressed.
I would never hit you – he said
He threatened her so fiercely, she never confronted him back.
I will not touch you if you say no – he said
He drugged her before taking her to his bedroom.
I would even kill for you – he said.
He aborted her child to deliver a boy from her womb next time.
Your looks kill me – he said.
He threw acid over her face.
I love your simplicity – he said.
Her only adornment – to his mistress he gave away.

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
