Here's to all my friends! To all my friends that were once my go-to but now are no longer than a birthday reminder on my phone. To the one's who have held me when I couldn't stand up, to the ones who bear with me and hold me tight when I cry. To the ones that let me fall -some on purpose and others to just see me grow tall. Here's to all the friends who remember small details about me, to the ones who share me wholesome memes, to the ones who hold me even behind my back.

Here's to all the friends who I have had for years and to the ones who just walked out as quickly as they walk...

And sorry to tell you my dear friend, expectations from unknown are the root cause of disappointments and these disappo...
Intersectionality is the ideology which caught very much attention in the last few years. It is a concept which says that all sorts of categorizations such as cast, creed, race, gender and class are interrelated, operate together and lead to discrimination. It highlights the fact that we generally talk about inequality based on sexuality or class or race, but the reality is that all of these parameters equally contribute in creating the melding experiences of discrimination. Feminism is in the light for promoting the social, political and personal equality of sexes and without the intersectional lens the efforts to tackle injustice against women, all go in vain as it has happened in the past. Feminism makes this movement inclusive, so that the voices of women of all races, religions, and castes are heard. Various scenarios are recorded in history where women have become a target of concurrent sources of oppression and are still suffering. We all know that women face se...
