TW: Suicide
Hello all, I am a two time suicide survivor. At the time of my attempts I was studying in one of the best universities in this country. My grades were good. The usual reasons for justifying suicide, I did not have them. Not even my roommate knew about it.1/n

I went for a hike a couple of months back with a friend. Wore a sports bra and shorts, walked around in literal woods, without once panicking about getting raped. It took me 29 years to experience something so simple.
She is able to walk freely in a country which is not her home.
This person and the replies will explain why.
I am glad she could leave.
Honestly I really wish all our women could just go off somewhere safer.

Secularism and Socialism is being peddled as unconstitutional by the Indian government itself. Right after the temple has been inaugurated.
The Indian govt page is sharing a pre-amendment version of our Constitution, in which the words ‘socialist’ & ‘secular’ are missing.
They’ve seamlessly transitioned their nation-destroying propaganda from party channels to official channels.

Glorifying self immolation of women because a certain group of *warrior* men wouldn't stop losing wars.
Padmavati is a fictional character.
Glorifying Sati/Jauhar is literally saying that women's bodies are more important than their lives.
Honour doesn't live in women's bodies.

Hindus always bring the goat home from the market before sacrificing during Durga and Kalipuja.I refuse to believe Sanjukta doesn't know how this works. This is deliberate. No Hindu would be penalized for celebrating their rituals even if it included animal slaughter.
Not supporting mob violence but why bring the bakra home? Oddest thing I have ever come across. Who brings home a bakra? Isn't slaughtering done at designated spots? Seems like a scripted Hindu-Muslim drama.

Housing societies regularly hold Jagratas, Dandiya Nights, Holi, Diwali. No one bats an eyelid.
The butchering was supposed to be done elsewhere, the goat was just to be kept.
I am a non-vegetarian. I eat everything, even tried Kangaroo meat. I believe in inclusivity, letting people practice their own religion and practices. But butchering animals in housing societies which have a population that doesn’t believe is your religion is just not done.

This is so common amongst young women. The year I was finishing my Master's, 2017, I really wanted to apply for a PhD. As someone with no academic network of their own, I chose to trust people in the network I had built, through social media connections. This well known history+

No wonder these men worship characters that abandon their wives, in religious mythology, in politics, and now in sports.

Today, Bumrah left immediately in the middle of the Asia Cup for the birth of his child.
