My breasts, my vagina, my thighs,
my hips and my lips
drive sexual attention,
Whether I am draped in saree or kurta
or shorts or burkha
or even the diaper to mention.

I vividly remember how I was discriminated against as a boy. This prestigious school wouldn't grant me admittance simply because I was a guy!
It was an 'All girls convent.'

कब सीखोगे तुम,स्त्री के, ना को ना समझना,
सब समझती हैं हम, नादान ना समझना।
अपनी इच्छाओं को तुम, हम पे थोप देते हो,
सँभलते नहीं बीज तुमसे,तो हम में रोप देते हो,
हम भी तो इंसान हैं, है जीने का हक़ हमें,
खुद को तुम हमारा, भगवान ना समझना।
जिस कोख से जन्मे, उसी से विश्वासघात किया,
सहा धरती सा हमने, तो हम पे वज्रपात किया,
जब चाहे तुम गरजे, जब चाहे तुम बरसे,
इन गुणों से खुद को, आसमान ना समझना।
स्त्री को जीत कर क्या, तुम पुरुष बन जाओगे
हमें रुला कर तुम क्या, महापुरुष कहलाओगे
अब न सहेंगी हम, तुम्हारे अत्याचारों को,
शैतान हो तुम, खुद को, इंसान ना समझना ।
पा न सकोगे कभी भी, हमारे हृदय की थाह तुम,
दी नहीं सजा हमने, तो करते रहे गुनाह तुम,
है हिम्मत अगर तो, स्त्री बनकर दिखलाओ,
स्त्री बनना पुरुष सा, आसान न समझना ।
कब सीखोगे तुम,स्त्री के, ना को ना समझना,
सब समझती हैं हम, नादान ना समझना।-
Sexism in Science
-----------------------
If you hear Hershey & you could recall Chase then you might be familiar with the famous Hershey-Chase experiment which proved that DNA is the genetic material, not protein.
This scientific breakthrough earned Hershey a Nobel prize but not for Chase. Why?
It was Alfred Hershey & Martha Chase.
Just like how Watson, Crick & Wilkins recieved Nobel prizes but not Rosalind Franklin.-
I know geometry never interested you much, Chico. Or most of Mathematics, for that matter. But I do wish to talk to you about congruence and similarity tonight.

You know what is sexism?
You call a weak man "a pussy".
But...
You don't call a strong woman "a dick"!
-
If you were to shut down a sexist family member whom you love immensely, how would you do it?
-
I find it extremely intriguing and disturbing that there are men who are raised to be so entitled that they actually believe that women only exist for their pleasure or carry their babies and more often than not, they aren't the same women.

● One of the most harmful parts of girlhood is how we learn to use our bodies as currency!!
