A daughter is expected to never let down her parents... even if it means choosing marriage over a fulfilling career.
She well read all the rhymes
She well by hearted all the phonetics
But her heart glared those playing kids in slush
While carving those numbers and pronoun
She didn’t let them down!!
She kept scores good
To make their eyes and head gloomed
She barely friended anyone
As she has to learn all there in curriculum
Her pillow witnessed that emotional drown
But she didn’t let them down!!
That red rose perked her
That first love letter gave her goose bumps
Crush she had in her alma mater had said
“I thought you never chatter”
She was on tenth sky when he propounded liaison
Her soul was bartered
In the name of marriage
“How blessed you are to have this family”, said Paa lordly
She wept and screamed in that golden cage
Her hard earned degree questioned
What about that Scholar’s badge? All in Vain??
Maa proudly brag how fortunate their daughter is
Those envied eyes reveal the pomp she is cherishing
But every second she die, she plead, she shouts
She is in forage of happiness, away from this materialism
But alas! She didn’t!! No..She can’t let them down!!

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.
