Although I'm 35 and not dependent on my parents for money, even today, when I'm with my retired father, and need some change for auto etc., He gives me 5 times more. I keep insisting I don't want, but he says rakhlo. Kaam ayega. Dads I tell you ❤️❤️❤️

Every day my belief gets stronger. There's nothing for women in marriage in India. Men stand to gain more. I will tell every unmarried woman - don't bother. Adopt if you want kids. You'll be happier trust me.

I'm half Jain. I'm a vegetarian. And an atheist. But I find this silly. What's this "saving" on Bakr Eid? Yes goats are slaughtered on this day but they're eaten, not killed in vain. It's no different from goats being slaughtered on any other day for food all over the country.

Dear OTT platforms. Please do something about the sound levels. Too low to hear dialogues and too loud when music plays! I'm sick of constantly changing the volume! @NetflixIndia @PrimeVideoIN

I remember in 12th grade we went on a school trip for a few days. Each night, teachers used to lock up the girls' rooms from the outside, to be opened in the morning. No such thing was done for boys. As a society we've got it all wrong. We lock up victims instead of perpetrators.

My daughter struggles to make friends. She feels she's rejected for her looks, or as a person. No matter what I say, she gets affected by others. It breaks my heart to see her confidence shatter. An 8 year old struggling with self image issues. What a ruthless world we live in!😓

My heart just skipped a beat. 6 year old asks - Ma, what is porn? I didn't bat an eyelid. Casually asked the spelling. Apparently, and thankfully, she meant pawn, not porn. Pawn as in pawn shop, and i was glad to explain it to her. But.. bakre ki ma kabtak khair manayegi?

I've seen many a couple grow old and bitter. Once the nest is empty, they don't have anything in common left, and spend the rest of their life in anger and resentment. It's more important to invest in your marriage than your children. Children go away. Spouse is forever.

1st: sexual urge isn't unique to men. 2nd: if being single & unemployed leads to sexual crimes, why aren't women doing it? 3rd: rape is never about sex, it's always about power. 4th: all the employment/money in the world won't reduce rapes until we smash patriarchy/privilege!

There's a couple (married i assume) in a neighbouring building, who sit in their balcony every morning and evening having tea, sometimes chatting and laughing, sometimes sitting silently reading. I don't know them but i love their comfortable companionship. Wish I had that!❤️

I don't agree with most religious rituals and beliefs. Esp those related to widowhood, which are skewed negatively towards women. My mom will never be inauspicious for us. She'll continue to live her life as before, like wearing her red bindi, bangles etc. To hell with tradition.

So watching porn or ogling at cleavage is ok. But breastfeeding in public is vulgar. As long as breasts are sexual playthings, they're great. As soon as they perform the actual function they were made for, it's disgusting. Yes? No?

An American, when travelling to India, needs to apply for visa online, and pay 10 dollars. And indian travelling to USA has to get one million documents and get rejected harshly more often than accepted in the interview, and pay $160 every time. What nonsense is this? 😡😡

My family has always been unorthodox. We even get criticized, but we don't care. Yesterday I not only went to the cremation ground, but also performed the last rites with my brother. I'm glad no one objected. Daughters deserve to bid goodbye to parents as much as sons do!

I'm diabetic. Not by birth, got it at 25. Once, a colleague said - 'oh, you became diabetic before marriage? then you must've had a love marriage.' she thought it's difficult for people with chronic conditions to get married. Do you think marrying someone like that is a favour?

I don't believe in universality of marriage and kids. Want children? Marriage not compulsory. Eg Sushmita Sen Want marriage? Kids not compulsory. Eg Jennifer Anniston Want to live life? Marriage and kids not compulsory. Eg APJ Kalam. Marriage and parenthood should be a choice.

I have limited clothes, shoes, accessories, jewellery. I have 500 books instead. I'm tired of insults about how I dress - because I repeat. But I still spend on what I like: food, books, family experiences and memories. I don't care if you think I'm poor or unfashionable. I❤️me!

Funny how we are so polite with strangers, acquaintances, colleagues, neighbours etc. But take out all our anger and frustration on our loved ones, our family. Whether we are good to others or not, surely our families deserve the most love, respect, and kindness no?

As I complete 14 years of my relationship and 11 years of marriage next week, all I can say is... Shaadi karke koi kuch nahi ukhad leta hai. It's also imbalanced for women always. Also remember, (as my mom always says), when marriage walks in the door, love goes out the window.

Today on the Chautha, my brother was given the Pagri, Symbol of becoming responsible for the family. After the ritual was over I walked up to him, put half of the shawl on my shoulders, and told him I'm equally responsible for us, as I should be, irrespective of marital status.

Would you judge someone if they didn't cry on the death of their parent/sibling/spouse/child? Not because they're enjoying it out don't care. But maybe cuz they're unable to, or unwilling to in public? They're private, or unable to process grief properly?
