Mothers must stop treating
their sons like they're
precious gifts from God:
Sonam Kapoor
Sonam Kapoor has penned a forthright

sexually harassing, exploiting or violating
others.

Now she'll get bashed for saying that and will be called a feminazi for her comments. 😵

In this context, I liked what Chetan Bhagat had to say and he is so right...

I was just wondering why Indian parents hate their sons so much. These poor guys are not taught to make even a cup of tea for themselves, forget cooking an entire meal. They have absolutely no idea about housecleaning or laundry or how to look after themselves.
They forever have to live on the mercies of others. This is so sad. I know of grown men who will never be able to go on a trip, be it for work or pleasure, if their wives do not pack their suitcase for them.
There is an entire generation of Indian men who would literally starve to death if left on their own.
I always thought parents loved all their children equally. But that is clearly not the case. They raise daughters who can take care of themselves and will survive under any conditions...but they raise sons to be helpless and without any life skills.
I think we should start a petition for equal rights for men at home.

Don't laugh...think about it...while Indian women are all set to conquer Mars, our poor boys will die a slow death because nobody showed them how to turn on the cooking gas!

True. I have seen so many grownass men coddled by their mothers. Its not cute lol. The problem is people raise their sons and daughters so differently in India to the point that it becomes almost second nature for the girl to feel inferior.

Having said that if people like Sonam talk of #MeToo it just dilutes the movement because on one hand she's saying all this while in the same breath she supports someone like Salman whose tales of abuse of power is well documented. Thats hypocrisy at its finest. Let actual survivors and social workers or someone with an actual spine talk.

I am the pampered only child and my husband studied abroad and lived on his own so he knows how to cook and I don't. The other day he was making a special omelette and my MIL was telling him he should teach it to me so I can cook for him. 🤢🤢🤢 Mentality is the same everywhere.

But wait! Her AIB friends were outed in #MeToo, werent they? Where was all her preaching and virtue signalling then? She disappeared that time, didnt she..
All words, no deeds always? Does she have even an ounce of integrity that she comes with her moral lectures every few months? What about the sweatshops run by her husband? No words or action where it counts?

Just out to spew some more hatred and social engineering as usual when it suits the priggish talentless hack...

How about love your kids , teach them to be upright human beings who have integrity, strength and honour as their creed and are outstanding members of the human society instead of setting one sex against the other and injecting hatred??

Sons should be raised in a way that they would not need anyone in their life

I hope she has told this to her own mother as well, for bringing up Harshbardhan as an entitled brat
