We are fighting for a lot of things in today’s world. Gender Equality is one of them. But how can you achieve equality, with the twisted mindset that our society is stuck in?

1. Being a House-husband is a taboo in our country while being a housewife is considered the default profession of a married woman

Ever met a house-husband in India?

 

2. Here’s one thing that garners equal reaction for both parties – PRE-MARITAL SEX

*Heart Attacks* & *Get Married NOWs!* galore…

 

3. If a boy is into crafting & cooking, he is looked down upon and told to leave all these “Ladkiyon waale kaam”

 

While a girl pursuing Mechanical Engineering will be harassed by words like

“Future mein problem ho jayegi”,
“Shaadi ke baad kaise manage hoga?”
“Yeh to ladkon waala kaam hai, tum kyun kar rahi ho?”

 

4. In a country where the sex ratio is way off, every man wants a “BEAUTIFUL EDUCATED BRIDE” and in some regions, some even pay for a bride

 

While the actual “BEAUTIFUL EDUCATED BRIDE” has difficulty finding a decent groom due to societal pressure on her to marry quickly

 

5. If the kids in a household are mixed or sons only, the primary sexist dialogue is “Ladki ko to apne ghar chale hi jaana hai”

 

If the household consists of only daughters, you have probably heard “Ek ladka to kar hi lo”
