This month we are discussing Feminism! But before we move on we’d like to share an image that was hugely popular on our Facebook page!

This post for obvious reasons had 39 shares, 16 likes and 3 comments! It was interesting to note what one of our male readers, Ajay Goel, had to say:

Men and women are equal forall porposes except for the natural endowment in the difference of their reproductive roles. It is the past history of mankind of the control and employment of resources by the men that the women was discriminated and was also in the process idealized and idolized by men to hide and justify his sheer physical and mental exploitation and slavery of women. Feminism of today is stuggle of economically liberated modern women to ask for her natural and inalineable rights back from a male dominated society, psychology and culture so that she stands on a equal platform with man for all purposes.. It has started happening in the last one century, but the struggle is harder and long. A great begining has been made. Men should support the women in this cause to eliminate the aberration in nature he had created long time back.

All of this month, we’ll be talking about feminism and how we can unravel the complex hierarchies set in place by patriarchal norms! Tomorrow we’ll begin the discussion with Dr. Dalvie’s column, Word Of The Month. No points for guessing what the word is.
