We asked our readers, “Different women like different colours. Which colour defines you & why?” Here is what you have said.
“Colours, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.” – Pablo Picasso
Colours play a vital role in the world we live in. Every colour resonates differently with different individuals. It is a powerful communication tool that can be used to signal action, influence mood, and cause physiological reactions.
Researches have proved that colours affect our way of thinking, change actions, and even affect stress levels. Colours have an unique ability of triggering emotions and memories, connect us to nature, inspire us, and sometimes they even seem to have that magical ability of slowing down time. Certain colors have also been associated with increased blood pressure, increased metabolism, and eyestrain.

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.
