Check out 16 Return-To-Work Programs In India For Ambitious Women Like You!
Let's welcome those men who follow their wives and walk alongside, or take charge of many other things while she is scaling heights.
Madhuri Dixit Nene.
I have always admired her as a person dedicated to her work. Though not always a big fan of her movies, I admire her art, and her decision to get back to her career and continue doing well.
I was surprised when I saw educated men and women making comments on her return to India like –
“Greedy for fame and adulation.” “Uprooted her children.” “Made her husband follow her, poor man.” “Could have opened a dance academy there.” “He is not doing well in the US or what?”
Really? And then you talk of respect for women’s choices?
Should these choices match with your pre-conceived rules or flourish within “allowed” territory?!
Stop judging women who have been able to do what probably many could not, and secretly dreamt of.
Let’s welcome those men who follow their wives and walk alongside, or take charge of many other things while she is scaling heights.
We have appreciated women in such roles so far, right? Then why not men?
Stop judging men and women who walk an unconventional and progressive path.
Don’t just talk of ‘change’, if you’re not evolved enough to admire and appreciate it!

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.
