Times are changing and so women ought to fight for their emancipation and break away from the shackles of fear and self-doubt.
Women have been carrying invisible scars over ages. They face adverse circumstances all through their lives. Woman beholds thousands of untold stories and anxiety beneath her sparkling dark eyes, which hides all the information that would eventually wound her with unfathomable misery and despair.The pressure to grow up, to sit properly talk sweetly, the so called Fit Into A Girl’s Shoe thing has left a long lasting impact on the women community. Women tend to say YES to so many stuffs that they don’t even like doing and its not even owing to patriarchy. Its the hidden fear within and the inclination of women to ‘fit in’ and have that equilibrium and everything at peace that provokes a woman to ‘Shut Her Mouth Up’ and cater to the needs of the society.
Its not that women don’t raise questions over the issues its just that it is simply raised by the wrong kind of FEMINISTS .The so called hypocrite feminists of today’s generation- living in sixteen mansion building, roaming in Ferrari’s- talk about the struggles of a woman who is even not privileged enough to use a sanitary pad and even if you offer them one they will throw it away. As a woman we have to say yes to those red heads who are ready to use us as a Kaanta and Kamala Bai’s.
The world is changing at a rapid pace so are women. But somewhere deep within it is in the zehen of a woman that they have to adjust even if it is for a house or for a restroom. Words of optimism rise when I read Maya Angelou’s poem ‘Phenomenal women’ .
‘I am a woman
Phenomally Phenomenal Woman’.

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.
