Women has endured a lot…but road blocks are not to be cleared for us but to be cleared by ourselves. You must believe that you are a woman who is capable to achieve anything and nothing is impossible for you…clear the blocks using your own little ways!

I meant invisible road blocks. Sorry for the typo.

Insible road blocks, here are examples:-

1. If a girl drinks – “Why do you want to imitate Western Culture?”, “Loose
morals”
If a guy drinks – “Not good for health, try to control”, “May be it is
ok occasionally”, “Attending retreat at Potta may be a good idea!”, “Gem
of a man except for occasional drinking!”

2. Guys congregate in Indian Coffee House – “Need to relax after work”
Girls congregate in Indian Coffee House – “What the hell?”

3. Finally the mentality embodied by the age old saying from Malayalam that
goes like this- “If the leaf falls on the thorn or the thorn falls on the
leaf, it is the leaf that is hurt at the end”

Indeed there are privileges the women have that are denied to men (reserved seats in buses to start with!). But still the scales are tilted heavily against the women.
