Mirror Now’s anchor Faye DSouza shuts down troll who tries to trash talk over an important campaign of making sanitary napkins tax free. Read here!
Prime Time TV anchor and ‘pressitute’ Faye DSouza, who is famous for not letting people bully her on her own prime time show on Mirror Now, effectively shut down a troll who tried to use his bhakt logic to take away the limelight from the matter of importance.
DSouza recently tweeted about how the GST rates had been lowered on beauty products and not on sanitary napkins, in a bid of supporting the campaign that wants to make sanitary napkins tax free in India.
So naturally, trolls attacked like it is their job and started singing the same old song about how the ‘previous’ (read: Congress) taxes were more than they are currently and how she should go “do some journalism instead of Pressitutegiri”.
Dear PresstituteWhat was the earlier rate of tax on Sanitary Napkins??? Do some journalism instead of Presstitutegiri — Abhishek Singh (@IAbhi_s) November 10, 2017

To which she replied in another tweet, and savagely shut down his irrelevant bullshit.
Dear Mr. Singh, The earlier rate was 4%. Although it differed from state to state. Also, you may adresss me as Faye or Ms DSouza or Ma'am. https://t.co/21se3hZpcD — Faye DSouza (@fayedsouza) November 11, 2017

She later tweeted with what every woman wants to practically yell out at this point in time.
The campaign is to make Sanitary Napkins tax FREE, it is a basic necessity. The previous tax is irrelevant, please watch the debate . https://t.co/ZrCoy62zsT — Faye DSouza (@fayedsouza) November 11, 2017

The dense politics that is woven by such specimens around anything important that is trying to take place in our country is what is hampering these issues from seeing the light of the day. If only they could climb out of their dingy holes and see what the more important things in life are!

People say that women are the greatest enemies of women. I vehemently disagree. It is the patriarchal mindset that makes women believe in the wrong ideology.
The entire world celebrates International Women’s Day on March 8, 2024. It should be a joyful day, but unfortunately, not all women are entitled to this privilege, as violence against women is at its peak. The experience of oppression pushes many women to choose freedom. As far as patriotism is concerned, feminism is not a cup of tea in this society.
What happens when a woman decides to stand up for herself? Does this world easily accept the decisions of women in this society? What inspires them to be free of the clutches of the oppression that women have faced for ages? Most of the time, women do not get the chance to decide for themselves. Their lives are always at the mercy of someone, which can be their parents, siblings, husband, or children.
In some cases, women do not feel the need to make any decisions. They are taught to obey the patriarchal system, which makes them believe that they are right. In my family, I was never taught to make decisions on my own. It was always my parents who bought dresses and all that I needed.
It is shameful that in today's world too, women are abused and even killed for giving birth to a girl, and the infant's life is also of no value.
Trigger Warning: This deals with domestic violence, suicide, and violence against women, and may be triggering to survivors.
I am so glad that the esteemed courts are now giving the much-required verdicts regarding certain ideologies that were not at all entertained earlier. I mean we all have studied this much biology at our school level and it is our duty (our generation) to educate our elders about it.
Why someone have to lose a life to bring such awareness to the society. Delhi High Court gave this judgement concerning a case that filed by the deceased daughter’s parents against her in-laws. She committed suicide as she was harassed and tortured for dowry and giving birth to two daughters.
