Domestic abuse is a crime. But marital rape? Not yet, because "sanctity of marriage". But it is the most common gender based violence. Abuse with consent.

so deep is our love I’m your strength in awe at your kindness, I am let’s put away anything together to create
powerful a bond inseparable and genuine not even a joke is a day away as committed we are
no terms or conditions our love is unconditional
revered I am, a goddess domestic or salaried profits or debts plans and funds let’s trust and share
for a lifetime is the investment deposit and save in the name of love to weather all storms and forever yours, I am
unsinkable this ship is infallible and isolated in a bottomless expanse gullible I stand uprooted from home my compasses left behind
too intense the intimacy disarming but intimidating vulnerable I’ve become wrenched with regret bewildered at the impenitence so flawless and self-righteous
be shamed with blame in anguish, I stand on the deck so distressed with no where to flee
so abstract this relationship behind the open doors sharing and caring at your boundless mercy I let myself abused with consent
too unhinged to notice what was in plain sight How did I not see I loved you a bit too much
not disoriented anymore I see. You had your T&Cs.

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.
