Masculinity & Gender Biasness

A woman accusing an entire family for dowry harassment has become normal. But, accusing a 2-month-old in the said case had to sound ignominy and bailing Zoya had to make stirring news for being the youngest person being bailed. [1] This said instance may be odd, peculiar, unacceptable, and irrational but still noticeable with a legal and moral remedy. But, when it comes to offering a legal remedy to men, things are far away from reality, whereas moral remedies stay out of the picture.

You also failed to mention pineapples, bananas, and grapefruits. Educate yourself. I’m literally shaking. And I felt that.

We, human beings by birth are fighting animals. We must accept the fact that we all are different as persons, in thoughts and perspectives. There are billions of humans on earth and you can spend your whole day reading negative views over social media.
