Should Motherhood Be A Choice?
Is that even a question? Of course! Motherhood should be a choice, in fact, it must be a choice. In a society like the one we live in, almost nothing is in the favor of women. A large number of women become mothers due to forced intercourse, or rape. Here, it’s obvious how they do not have a choice, because rapists d…[Read more] -

Why are Indian women expected to be ‘homely’?
In India, a considerably large part of the population lies below the poverty line. Due to minimal exposure, advancement and development, people are still into old-school thoughts- the thoughts that gave criteria for a woman to be judged on whether she is ‘ideal’ or not. It is merely a very sexist…[Read more] -

Should women be paid for household work?
In today’s date, we call women homemakers, no matter they work or not. It clearly means women are the ones taking a part of the load of the household.

Do women play a role in upholding patriarchy?
Patriarchy has been prevalent in our society since centuries together. It clearly declares the male gender as the superior gender. In such circumstances, women cannot get hold of their rights and cannot exercise them either. In my opinion, women are somewhat involved in the same. Women do play a role…[Read more] -
