omg!!!i am so sorry. i hope you are fine now and person responsible for the assault is punished . they have no place in society.
you are actually bringing up lot of issues today for us to discuss. your experience reminds of the importance of sexual education from childhood. how important it is for us to teach our children of good touch and bad touch so that they can come to us when exploited.
Thank you! And I’m fine now.. unfortunately I remembered very late though by the grace of god they never touched me inappropriately but yes did show me a lot things that a child shouldn’t be showed... it didn’t stop there as I grew older and especially in Delhi had more of these unfortunate incidents including school premises...
As you said the issues stem from the taboo of sex education and the the inability for us to provide children with that education or explain to them what is right and wrong.... it’s not limited to women only even men suffer through this kind of harassment...
This stems from the views is a patriarchal society where we differentiate based in gender.. when a man is with mang girls he is called a player but when a girl is with many men she is called a sl*t... we say grow some balls to show strength and call someone a p**sy to show they are weak whereas the balls are actually the most sensitive in a mans body and the vag**a the strongest in a woman’s.....
the societal norms are the ones that need to be changed and the shackles broken... that is why it hard for some people to accept a character like Sai who doesn’t fall into the category of a woman who is meek..
