I'M A WOMAN

 
I'm a Woman,
And I don't need DISTRACTION,
My own identity is the reason
to get out of this prison.

I can put my lipstick on,
I don't need a reason why I should not.
It makes me feel confident,
Makes me more Competent,
And hereby I kick society's Judgement.

I'm a Woman,
And I don't need COMPARISON,
My own identity is the reason
to get out of this prison.

I can pull weights and I can play sports,
I am not competing with the males,
I do it because I find myself in the race,
I want to leave my success trace marks
And hereby I put the idea of comparison apart.

I'm a Woman,
And I want to be an EXAMPLE,
My own identity is the reason
to abandon this prison.

I want to be known for being ME,
I am not a runner up of the team,
I want a celebration for me being a woman.
It makes me the strongest,
And hereby I say
I want to be known for being ME,
I want to create my own identity.

Because,
I am a woman,
And I don't need Comparison or Distraction.

Assam barely receives attention both from the centre and mainland media when it comes to addressing their concerns. If a similar situation or disaster in this scale took place in any other state, the government and the media would have generally not wasted this much time to declare it as an emergency situation. What is happening right now in Assam? Assam floods, now more than ever, need our attention. Due to COVID-19, the burden on Assam is doubled. At present, 3,376 villages are underwater and 1,27,647.25 hectares of crop areas have been damaged across Assam, according to ASDMA. But why are we not talking about this on a nation

The Sex and Gender Debate

The two terms, sex and gender, are often conflated together by people and are even used interchangeably which has generated misconceptions around the term. People don't realize the difference between sex and gender. So what causes this confusion? For generations, it has been assumed that sex and gender mean the same thing. It was passed on that being born either a male or a female and possessing either masculine or feminine traits went hand in hand and were equally biological. They believed that there is a pre-packed set of characteristics that belong to men and women. For example, men are expected to strong, assertive, dominant with rough and chiseled features- which is considered “masculine”, while women are expected to be docile, submissive, soft-spoken, and give greater care to appearance; explain physical standards allocated to women. If you look closely, it is also coherent with stereotypes such as blue is for boys and pink is for girls. There was little intersection betw
