Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
My brain asked me what was in the name? What’s in the nomenclature game? Labels after more labels! What’s in the bloody name!
My brain asked me what was in the name? What’s in the nomenclature game? Labels after more labels, Why can’t a star be called a moon, and a cop be called a goon, A tiger can just be a leopard, stripes or spots, it’s all the same to a shepherd.
A mountain can be called a river, And a table can be a chair, But what about the gods? Maybe I shouldn’t go there It’s better that we skip and move on let the ones in white pull that con.
Now that I think a bit about it There’s not much to deconstruct We are all, after all, inter-changeable Hush, hush, and hold on, to the ego that’s nothing but trouble
Me & You, We & Them, Women & Men Binaries are how we got hell & heaven Pride in two words that you take, Ask your shadow- Even that’ll tell you to give it a break.
Thinking aloud and allegorically speaking, Identifiers converting with marital status, Nuptial bliss must be happily shrieking Huh! I am already tired of all of this These boxes are slippery with grease, No wonder it’s hard to get out of ‘em So once again, humor me What’s in the bloody name!

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.
