10 Ridiculous Situations Indian Women Faced in 2016!

Taking women back to the medieval era!

Rape survivor killed herself post wedding with the rapist

Yes, if you’re raped, you should marry your ‘beloved’ rapist, NOT! A 19-year-old rape survivor killed herself when she was forced to marry her rapist in Haryana. The girl was married for seven months and took her life after the physical and mental torture she went through. Guess who got them married instead of prosecuting the rapist? The Panchayat! We still don’t understand how the Panchayat has the authority over law!

 

2016 – A year of Body Shamers

What is body shaming? It doesn’t need to be yelled out in loud words! A simple comment from a family member or a friend like,”Oh you look fat in this dress, may be you should lose some weight,” is body shaming too. Many women on a daily basis are ridiculed for being on the so called ‘healthier side’. Looking at an overweight woman and saying,”Oh you are so pretty, it would have so cool if you were a few kilos lighter.” This should be declared a crime. No, we don’t say we should promote unhealthy weight or obesity, but let women decide what and how they choose to conduct their body weight. The same goes for skinny and thinner women! Can we stop it already?

 

Actresses can’t work post wedding

This trend we thought was changing in the recent years as Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai and many other married stars are back on the silver screen. However, South cinema’s sweetheart Samantha admitted that she has been shown the cold shoulder by many filmmakers post the announcement of her wedding with Naga Chaitanya. We hope the married actresses take a stand and fight against this disgusting shift in opinions about them post marital bliss.
