The Indian society deems it necessary to not speak of the evil that happens in your domestic life. Probably this is the breeding ground for all the violence and abuse women face.
The unwritten covenant makes you brush all the dirt under your already dirty carpet.
And dare you be the one that lifts up that carpet, waking the sleeping giants from their stupor…who will go on to blame you for stirring dissent in their peaceful oasis.
There is a strong demand effect to suffer in silence, to let the illusion of marriage, family, reproductive success all play out.

[Edgar Ekhon Thepla @poeticlieshensh]

I cannot stress enough now much this country needs some kind of revolution centred around women, especially educated working women, simply refusing to get married. I hope it leads to a full fledged movement demanding more social securities and financial checks etc for such women

I came across a theory that AI is starting to make more mistakes because the internet is increasingly polluted with AI slop. The idea of AI cannibalising itself into obscurity is one of my favourite things ever. I hope it is true and I hope it becomes impossible to fix.

Feminists, what radicalized you?

[goma @soigomaa]

Don't call yourself a "baddie" if you're not questioning patriarchy, religion, racism, and the systems that hold all women back baddie is not just making a fashion statement or putting on bold makeup.

[ً @wynrosei]

Patriarchy is so deeply rooted in people's minds that women giving birth is seen as normal, but a man doing chores is considered something worthy of praise.

I was 40 yrs old when our divorce seemed inevitable.

Ours was a love marriage

Just like I had informed, my now late mother, of my decision to marry in 2002, I informed her of our decision to divorce.

Amma, did not know details of how we decided to marry, so I did not ever bother her about details why we decided to divorce. And there were many. But its not her burden.

But amma responded in an unexpected manner. She said ' i will die by suicide if you ever do this'.

My amma. The first lady in her bloodline to raise 6 siblings. To ride a Bajaj Chetak in Hyd. To wear sleeveless blouse and chiffon sarees and to wear a lipstick, ever. To be financial independent, amass houses and raise me like that.

And dealt with an alcoholic and irresponsible husband of 40 yrs.

She raised me to be me. So I was confused and angry.

I told her in a very cold manner, 'if you have to go by suicide, I am an excuse amma. Thats your destiny. I will not suffer or make him suffer'.

And i hung up the phone.

For almost the next 7 months she was unhappy, until she came around.

Why am I sharing this? The strongest of women have conditioning. They fear. And that can be your own role models, my mom is mine.

Stand your ground. Be firm. Be financially independent.

For those who know me here, know i have been my moms only primary care giver till she passed.

But stand for yourself.

I don't think you understand how mad the scenes in London will be this weekend. Bank holiday, 30 degree weather and Arsenal winning the league. A movie.

There is healing in fiction that no self help book can replicate. Because sometimes you don't need advice. You just need to feel less alone in the experience.

[pankh🌷 @TannahaTitli]

Being rebellious and a "bitch" Will genuinely make your life better, I beg women to stop being good daughters and live thier lifes. Because you also only get 70years to live, pls don't die with a heavy heart full of regrets.

[jezz @JezziiB]

Women: "If men disappeared for one week, we could walk alone at 3 AM, wear anything at all, leave our drinks unattended, travel anywhere and actually feel free."

Men: "But who would protect you?"
Women: "Protect us...from who?"

[6 @s6lima]

males are so notorious for leaving their terminally sick wives that its baked into chemo prep for women. & you don’t believe marriage is about entitlement to your body & labour as a woman? stay there.
