Swara open response to all those open letter written in response to her open letter:

"Everybody has right to express opinion. I kept my views in a very polite manner and had no wrong intentions. I put forward a few legitimate questions. I didn't expect so much chaos just because I used a word which starts with 'V'."

She added, "If people don't agree with me, it's alright as it is democratic country. I had no idea that this would create such a mayhem and that people who are not connected to the film at all will get upset."

Points I liked from their response. Bold made me laugh.

Many Rajputs surrendered to Moghals. But people like Rana Pratap chose to die, rather than surrendering. Well, he had a penis and he chose death over surrendering. Can we question him? That was his choice. So is Padmavati's. Why bring penis and vaginas to their choices?

People like Swara or Twinkle do not realise, feminism fight should be about basic human rights for the women. It is about their needs (like toilets). Not about their choices. Why women does Karwa Chaut? Why man does Ganesh Puja? These kind of arguments lead nowhere. (Nobody bothers, if in their house, husband does Karwa Chaut and wife does Ganesh Visarjan. It is their choice). Don't start preaching what is regressive, what is not. Trupti Desai broke the rule of men only temple and dargah. After that, what happened? Did women start going there? Fact is, it was never their need.

Most stupid argument is imposing current moralities to centuries back. Most of our great grandparents had a dozen children. We don't. Can we call them regressive? They just had not realised the problems of overpopulation. Tomorrow if a person makes a film on Gandhi, is he not supposed to state that Gandhi was a ninth child, because it is regressive?

They might not be exercising their right to go to those places but if anyone wants, they can. At least there are no restrictions. I think that is important.

Other than that I totally agree with your post.

I don't agree with her view point but she has the to express what she feels. The amount of trolling she has got for this has been ridiculous. More people have come out against her, the very same people who kept their trap shut when Karni Sena was threatening to behead someone. SUCH A DAMN SHAME

Why is the open letter response to Swara's letter addressed to "All Vaginas"?

Is it assumed that all who concur with Swara's assessment are vaginas - including the men who agreed with her?

Is it assumed that all vaginas agreed with Swara - including the ones who cussed at her?

Does it mean that all who disagree with Swara are pricks? Or are the ones with balls? 😆

Where does that put people like me who see both sides - vagiballs?

Just read the article and died at this: Since we cant appreciate art, lets violate it. With karni sena on one side and the vaginas on the other. Lets demand jauhar from the makers and feel victorious with sensationalising it with our judgements and parameters. LMAO. 🤣

@return_to_hades

The letter was intended for all like Swara that were reduced to vaginas after watching Padmavaat!

Women =/= Vagina. Just like Man =/= Penis.

They are just body parts. 😆
