Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
A poem which vehemently talks about the prevalent nepotism. Read on!
A favour here, a favour there,
A scene of shit, I just can’t bear.
Sat for the exam, scored so good,
But why didn’t I catch that hook?
The interviewer asked five plus five,
I answered ten, but still got jived.
Tell me what’s wrong, the system or me?
Answer fast, I have a deadline to hurry.
Oh look! That jovial girl got the job,
The one who won’t add a drop.
The river has become dirty,
Full of favours and friendly mercies.
I must find a jack for myself too,
To fuck the system, of who’s who.
Here, I sit with all my degrees,
Could someone tell me the worth, please?

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
