Girls apply rose’s petals; my preference is rose’s thorns, They make my skin bleed, Hence I glow, Then what should I fear?
The volcanic eruptions give ways to beautiful craters, What should I fear? Bold, brave and black beauty one day will walk on the serene barren beach like a nude soul, Ask! What should I fear? My bruised knuckles still crush the rosemary sprigs, It becomes better to savour me as a better person, I unveil my veiled sorrows, I unveil my silent cries, I unveil my failed tries, I unveil my worries of tomorrow, My mistakes are lightning serenade in a continuous moving picture, I ain’t a perfect creature, I don’t forget to chuckle a little, I allow the dark despair’s tempest to calm down and rest, Before the bold, dark dried black body turns into the nude soul, and care none just glare at the horizon, I stumbled upon the words, I stumbled upon the deeds, My wrongs only guide me, I shed my body time to time and call it ageing, Girls apply rose’s petals; my preference is rose’s thorns, They make my skin bleed, Hence I glow, Then what should I fear? What should I fear?

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.
