Body shaming can shred a woman's self-esteem and scar her for life. There is nothing more liberating than loving yourself as you are. Love your 'imperfect selves'.
Body shaming can shred a woman’s self-esteem and scar her for life. There is nothing more liberating than loving yourself as you are. Love your ‘imperfect selves’.
Living in the world of people who love me, Delusional I live with perfect glee… Love that has always been around in ample. A life so perfect it’s almost a scandal.
Let me now start from the beginning, For most, it wouldn’t mean a thing, Let us have a look at the childhood, I had everything that a child would,
And oh-so-affectionate a family, Always treated me well and gently… When I’d say, “Oh, thank you for the pretty dress”, She’d say, “My lovely, had you been a size less, it wouldn’t be so much of a mess”
“Oh but lovely you are, my dove” And I’d smile with all my love. I’d hear them say, “Oh what a great dancer, you are” “Just a little fat but amazing you are”
They’d praise, “Oh you’ve got a heart of gold” A flabby body but persona humble yet bold. With passing childhood came the teens, Growing up like any child it may seem,
I grew up and learnt to be wise, Wisdom didn’t quiet matter with my clothes doubling in size. I’d hear family and friends say, Should I say if I may?
You’ve grown up to have a lovely face, You should exercise to lose that weight, Staring at the mirror came the youth, Now let’s just look at the truth,
Lined up on my shelf came the awards I won, It’s great but you still are fat all said and done. So you can sing, dance, and paint and ride. You can throw a ball, and make it slide,
But, there are the eyes of people that never lie Reminding you of the truth that never dies, So what If you’ve got a good job, So what if you’re friends adore you a lot, No matter how hard you fight to be the perfect child, the perfect bride, Little did I know it will never be right.
You’ve got the moves, you’ve the face, But it’s always your plus size ass that sets the pace, The colors perfect, you’ve got this right, But isn’t the outfit a little too tight..
Oh don’t you pity me over this, Love isn’t something that I miss, I’ve loved and I’ve failed, For this I’ve never wailed.
Here I am, with a crime I never did, Life’s a bitch like the clothes that never fit. Oh now let’s get this straight, It’s no more just about the weight.
This is me, my imperfect self, A fun loving silly elf, Living in a world of people who love me, Delusional I live with perfect glee

While marriage brings with it its own set of responsibilities for both partners, it is often the woman who needs to so all the adjustments.
For a 25-year-old women — who tied the knot in March-2014 — the love come arranged marriage brought with it a new city, and also the “responsibility of managing household chores“.
Prior to her marriage, she learned to cook after marriage as her husband “doesn’t cook”.
“I struggled and my husband used to tell me that it would turn out better the next time. Now, I am much a better cook,” said the mother to a three-and-a-half-month-old, who chose to work from home after marriage.
Jaane Jaan is a great standalone flick, but a lot of it could have been handled better, and from the POV of the main character.
Jaane Jaan is a thriller streaming on Netflix and is adapted from Keigo Higashino’s book, ‘The Devotion of Suspect X’. I found the film to be riveting, with a nail-biting build-up. However, in my personal opinion, the climax and the treatment of the female lead was a letdown.
Disclaimer: I haven’t read the book yet, and I am not sure how true the adaptation has stayed to the source material.
(SPOILERS AHEAD. Please read after you watch the movie if you are planning to)
