HUMANISM OR FEMINISM?

If Feminism stands for equal rights for both men and women, then why is it called ‘Feminism’ and not ‘Humanism’? Most of the men start hating women based on the context that they might be feminists. But let me take you straight to the point and clear this misunderstanding that ‘Feminism is all about striving equal rights for men and women! It does not include degrading or ignoring men’. Even a man can be a feminist!  People who believe in gender equality are basically feminists. Believing that men and women must have equal rights is the apt definition of Feminism. According to Beyoncé, “If you’re a man who believes your daughter should have the same opportunities and rights as your son, then you’re a feminist.” Though Feminism focuses on human rights, yet it is called Feminism and not Humanism because in the patriarchal society males already had the all the privileges in the society due to which the name evolved as it was believed empowering women and considering them equal to men ...

Have you ever been Stalked??

If yes, then you should know that it is one of the dreaded crimes!! Stalking is not only physical, it is electronic too and you can be stalked easily via emails, phone calls other digital networks. Stalking is not always on a personal level, it can be Professional too!! One thing that I have learned about stalking is that it is not always out of the physical attraction, but can be due to your profession as well. Instead of making robust policies about stalking, Some organizations will do the opposite. BEWARE! Repeated phone calls, e-mails, using the internet to follow you, and too much-unwanted contact, are the signs of Stalking, I've experienced. Whenever you join any organization, make sure that they have a 'Workplace Stalking Policy' to safeguard your interests. Have you ever face anything like Stalking?? If yes, please do share and give out your suggestions on the same. P.S-  Stalkers will try to break your wings, but they forget that you have claws too!!

There’s one best thing that I completely adore about you i.e. ‘Your conversion from zero to hero’!! You made me realize that ‘The struggle was REAL’!!

I am grateful for all the life le...
