Happy Women's Day

I had never celebrated Women's day. I was not much of a feminist. May be because I never felt the inequality myself (thanks to all the family, friends and colleagues) and read quite a few articles which claims to be feminist but were more stereotyped.

But, as I grow old, I start seeing those inequalities (which you have mostly read about just in news). For example, watching the maid discriminating between her girl and boy child or being discriminated by her family etc. Watching educated people making ridiculous comments just to get what they wanted.

And I turn into a feminist. A feminist who would like to promote equality, equality which gives both men and women equal opportunities, equal freedom and equal respect. Not a men bashing feminist, as I feel that percentage of men and women believes in inequality is similar. 

And I started feeling good about the day. A day which reminds everyone to contribute to the cause.


A Happy Women's day to all
