Women are expected to be what society deems proper for a woman – here is a call out to accept a woman as she is!
With my flaws and with all the faults, With my eccentricities and with all the messy ways, With my unusual dreams and with endless figments of imaginations, With my nonchalance and unruffled attitude towards who try to judge,
Accept me with all this and so much more..
I would rather show you my vices and leave the virtues to unfold, No one minds the goodness, imperfections bother the world, Smudgy lines discomfort the society and gets talked about on every street, As I look at it, blemishes are just as much part of me,
Don’t walk into my life as a prince charming, Be real, be human and be the individual you are, And accept the same from me, Not all that you are charms me, not all that I am will please you,
Accept me for who I am, accept me with all good, bad and ugly.. Accept me with all this and so much more…

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.
