Disclaimer

I was brainstorming with my friends for a promo video for my startup.  We were discussing many concepts and me being the fighter that Iam,  wanted to incorporate some issue also into the video.  They too liked it,  but they also gave a very valid point.  They said we could do a series of videos,  and one of those could talk about some issue,  so viewers do not label me as someone who will only talk about issues.  Ironically,  the issue I wanted to use in our concept was labelling.
 
I've had many message me,  after reading my blogs and most of them seem to think I'm lamenting about my woes or I'm only talking of issues women face.  And many also construe me to be a man hater. 

People while  reading my article against labelling, label me! 

So to avoid any further confusion I want to make certain things clear.

1. Feminism doesn't mean man hating
2. I definitely don't hate men.  Trust me on this!
3. I use my experiences to make people aware of the atrocities happening  and to tell women,  these shouldn't stop us.  So please do not think I'm just lamenting.  Not my intent.
4. Women issues are not the only topics I write about.  I've also written about objectivism,  freedom,  hypocritism, etc.
5. And yeah,  I should tell this,  the fellow women I'm referring to are not just school kids.  Don't please assume so, since I'm sharing my experiences during school.  I really wish I didn't have to say this.
6. When I say women have to fight,  I don't mean fighting against men or to kill them in their sleep.  Women just have to fight against anyone, men and other women alike, who stop them from doing what they want to do.  As simple as that.

  1. Read through all the archives and as a person against labeling and also as a person personally labeled by the same fellow mates of the prestigious institution that you've passed out.... heart felt wishes to all your future endeavors.
