The Girl who Loved too much.
Once there was a girl who loved a guy,
She gave him everything, and she didn’t ask why,
She did things for him that were out of her league,
And tried to change herself to match his intrigue.
She saw him as her future husband, even before the wedding day,
And she hoped that he would love her, in every single way,
She needed affection, frequent meets, and pampering too,
And she hoped that he would make her feel lovable and true.
She wanted him to care for her, just like her father did,
And she hoped that he would forgive her, for the silly things she did,
She wanted a lovable relationship, built on trust and respect,
And she hoped that he would always be there, to protect her.
So, she loved him with all her heart, and gave him her all,
She hoped that he would catch her, whenever she’d fall,
And as they walked through life, hand in hand,
She knew that they’d make it, with love as their brand.

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.
