You don't need to worry if you're wearing shorts or skirts. However small the difference may be, it indeed feels liberating. Just the thought of coming back to India makes me worry about 'losing' my freedom. Indian women are not REALLY SAFE.<br />Yet another thought provoking post. I hope Indian men will improve a little and stop discriminating against women.

We should not forget that we have a culture where we worship Durga n Saraswati. Yet people forget and commit these ghastly acts. The teaching and sensitizing should start at home.

The topic of 'sex' is way to over rated to be discussed in public. And to think of it, even judiciary is not doing its bit to relive women of the wrath of penetration. My blood boils no end!!! Rape is something which I feel deeply for and have blogged about it time and again!!!<br />http://shwetashirodaria.wordpress.com/<br /><br />The country needs to wake up to women's plight where even woman in metros, young children and tourists are not safe!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-82255260033360361712013-08-25T15:09:09.247+05:302013-08-25T15:09:09.247+05:30I so agree ,i must say nw its high time mothers st...I so agree ,i must say nw its high time mothers start teaching their sons to behave n stop treating dem like vip's of d family.This hugely leads to a swollen pseudo male ego which leads to subconcious superiority complex.To satisfy such ego or to release dese frustrations they commit such crimes.<br />If we are looking forward for a change,that will start at family level where brothers and sisters are treated equal( real)Suhavnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10106168206975786722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-19104056300945182382013-08-25T13:28:06.819+05:302013-08-25T13:28:06.819+05:30We are talking about gender discrimination krishna...We are talking about gender discrimination krishnakanth--not about mugging which happens everywhere. Do you mean to say that in US, UK and UAE--everywhere women are targeted--so its okay?!!<br /><br />Of course there is deep-rooted misogyny in India. And I am not saying be nice to someone *because she is a woman* !! All I am asking is to *not treat someone in a particular way* because she is a woman. Telling an adult woman what she can wear and cannot wear *is* discrimination. Making comments about a woman's appearance *is discrimination*<br /><br />I am not 'Hitting back*. I am making an appeal.Preeti Shenoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01626823872300694608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36418670.post-48758506492905834552013-08-25T13:27:40.577+05:302013-08-25T13:27:40.577+05:30I agree Heta.

Comparison with other countries is just non-sense!! UK, US, UAE everywhere women are targeted. <br /><br />I have friend (Male) who was beaten up by unknowns while returning back home from his work (Night shift). Now, are male too harassed?? <br /><br />Then again, Preeti hit back strongly in the last two points.<br />//If you are a man who thinks about 'saving for my daughter's marriage', you are definitely discriminating.///<br /> The other one, the vocabulary.. True to the point!!!<br /><br />PS: Don't be nice only to women. Be good to everyone around you, the living n non-living things. Think above sex!!!krishnakanthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08607596233475655115noreply@blogger.com
