First you get outraged. Fuming with anger you
debate how can such people be so much a ‘slice of life’ of the patriarchal
curse that we are talking about. Then you get sad and pity the state you are
in. Then: YOU FORGET.
Let that not happen here!!
Crime Patrol has postponed airing the Delhi Gang
Rape case. Reasons ? You guessed it!
Every now and then you try so hard to believe,
they try to crush your thoughts and run a bulldozer over it. Two utmost
disgusting lawyers took the case. I am not naming them. They don’t deserve to
be named. Debates that taking the case would bring them suddenly to limelight
from being a nobody to somebody or taking the opposite stance of defending the
rapists in a GD by a B-School student, puts the stark reality of a sad new India.
People are ready to do anything to get what they want. Values have disappeared.
(To those who again tell me, it’s happening everywhere,
I know.I am not being country specific, but as it is my country, I guess even
addressing the 2 billion plus population isn’t less).The
positive side of it, are the protestors who are selflessly proving on the
street, again ‘in your face’ that humanity is NOT COMPLETELY DEAD. There are
people who respect women and are here to support them, to show the power of
numbers. Let’s hope that the pressure really falls on the government.
Let’s face it. We get used to it. ALWAYS.
We find great many excuses for it. We get along with our normal life like
nothing happened. The humanity today is more insensitive than ever before.
Another speaker showed us the grameen bank video, and the way things could
change with a little effort of one man being the guranteer was impressive. What
was even common in a story of Crime Patrol that I saw today was that people who
work in affluent middle class or upper middle class families increasingly get
exposure to a life they can never afford. They planned a high class kidnapping
and executed it, got caught and had a miserable end.
Update: I'd written this ages ago. The irony is that- NOTHING has changed. Talk of class and talk of pilots, engineers, MBAs, all the highly educated men. Only yesterday says a man, Oh, look at her. They look so hot and they want us to control ourselves. I told him the standard line-Even if she walks naked you are supposed to control. She never said yes. Somehow the men feel not doing anything is not being a man. Glad that he later agreed that HE is a man who would not do anything without a consent.

But we won’t stop. People have finally woken up
and it’s no time to fall back to sleep again!
Let’s not talk about the negativity here. It’s
time we fought with our deepest desire to brood on the negatives, the
non-happenings, the sad (read ‘pathetic’) condition of the country’s mentality.
It's been a while-we feel angry-people (read ‘potential
rapists’)
have commented such disgusting and repulsive statements that one needs to
divert the mind to eventually digest it. But, I am not going to talk about them
here. Free ka footage kyun de!(Those
misogynists are speaking to gain footage, still in the stone age thinking any
publicity is good publicity…..somebody tell them it destroys their brand
reputation beyond repair!)

One
reality has dawned on me, that we are living in a world of so-called humans
which is increasingly filled with two parallel worlds,……humans and the likes of
Asaram Bapu who could stoop so low that humanity would curse him and God must
be shamed to the core, to have someone so low in morality call himself a
spiritual guru. Guru? I thought it was a joke! But no, he has followers who
STILL support him. A guru creates the likes of him.The President’s son thinks women have no right
to put on a lipstick. Pity him. Laugh at the poster that said ‘Don’t stare at
my lipstick listen to what I am saying. Sad ; in your face; gruesome reality.
Stop the masses from following the misogynists!!! No wonder a woman gets raped every 8 minutes in India! the have nots not create
the likes of them.(Have nots in terms of sensibilities, a heart, and definitely
a SOUL).
Only yesterday I heard some lines that daggered
me in the heart. Because they are so sadly ; true!
A speaker was saying, ‘What shocked me, when I
stepped in Mumbai was the extreme poverty all around staring at your face….!
And how people were taking no notice of it……and what shocked me even more was
that; how even I got so used to it in just 2 weeks
that even I started behaving as if they are invisible….as if they don’t exist..I
walked past them without seeing them like everyone else.’
Let’s face it. We get used to it. ALWAYS.
We find great many excuses for it. We get along with our normal life like
nothing happened. The humanity today is more insensitive than ever before.

exposure to a life they can never afford. They planned a high class kidnapping
and executed it, got caught and had a miserable end.
We are
living in an extreme world filled with a never before divide within the urban
India itself.

I know we love lazying around, forgetting everything. We should get Nobel and Oscars for ignoring everything and being aloof. But if you encounter a mentality as this, do try to change your own encoutners and ask them to change 3 mentalities, maybe. Who knows Jai Ho could work.

Just bought this after lockdown. Super comfortable for daily wear.
This ring has survived for years! Cabin crew literally gasped, "Where did you get it from, Ma'am!"
Safe nail paints are very important when you're pregnant or cooking, for example, making a dough. We Indians love to eat with our hands too. Let's avoid some chemicals while we are at it.
