Who are these people with their mobile phones crowding around celebs - making a public spectacle of their grief and their most vulnerable moments? Shouldn't there be a law to stop this intrusion 24/7 not just in their lives but also on our timelines? Everything CANNOT be

Pink metro carriages, pink autos, pink bus tickets, pink parks, pink toilets, separate queues - segregation doesn't make public spaces any safer or more comfortable-it only exoticises women & reinforces the idea that the public sphere belongs to men. theguardian.com/global-develop…

Segregation for #Indian #women doesn’t let them enjoy public spaces in a country where #culture and #patriarchy deep-roots the public sphere as belonging to men. 'Socialise #boys to be comfortable around women– as equals, not anomalies,' sez Nilanjana Bhowmick theguardian.com/global-develop…

Women in India don’t want ‘safe zones’ – they want to enjoy public spaces as equals. “What’s truly needed is to socialise boys and men to be more comfortable around women – as equals, not anomalies” ⁦Nilanjana Bhowmick⁩ on women in public spaces in India. theguardian.com/global-develop…

#AapJaisaKoi: - messy time line -stereotypical (and cringy) portrayal of Kolkata and Bengali women. (Also - negotiating college street wearing stilettos? I dunno maybe it happens😁) + Madhavan serving his usual good boy vibes (ever since Banegi Apni Baat)

Pink zones. Women-only queues. “Safe” corners. This isn’t safety—it’s restriction. It isolates women instead of tackling violence at its roots. 📝 @NilanjanaB | 📰 The Guardian 🔗 theguardian.com/global-develop…
