The ritual of baraat should not be male-dominated. It should be normal for a woman to reach the marriage venue with dancing crowds while the groom can be the one waiting to receive and respect the bride and the bride’s family.
The right to alimony in our society is not known to women as their right but as a trait of a shameless woman who wants to rob her husband and in-laws. So it is about time we encourage women to unlearn stereotypes and exercise their rights without any fear.
Not their marital status, but women’s free will gets to decide what they wear, where they go and what they do. Stop making marriage women’s sole source of freedom.
Daughters should not be dependent on the hope of getting a good husband to pursue their education and dreams. Education is their basic right and neither parents nor in-laws have the right to alienate them.
If a woman doesn’t trust her husband, she should not be with him. Rather than confining herself to the idea that men are always right or men’s support is important for her security and safety, women should step out and value themselves.
Why are women constantly told that marriage is the last option? If you fail in life, how can a marriage fix it? I chose to live beneath my means, rather than being married
Do we understand the consequence of coercing the idea of control in relationships? They will become battlegrounds of asserting domination, with no space for love and understanding.
But dear parents, it is high time you understand that education and employment are the powerful tools using which women can resist any sort of injustice in their lives. More than marriage, women need the companionship of degrees and salary to live happily.
You define what feminism is. At the very core of it, is the value of choice and personal freedoms – your own and that of other women.
Subtle sexism is slow poison. It kills softly but in a manner far more deadly than blatant, boorish sexism that many women are learning to call out today.
