Well it's my first day of blogging and ferrying around in the Delhi Metro’s much hyped "Ladies compartment” as well.
My first reaction to the Pinky fancied "Only women" banner was something like that of a newly launched sanitary napkin brand...arrghh....why does it have to be pink....?????
Ok going back to the compartment, I suddenly felt as though I got admitted to a girls' high school....(read perplexed and disillusioned).....there wasn't much motivation to start the day on a high note....sans the presence of study guys,while a bunch of them peeped from the adjacent bogey as to wha was so special about this "women only (guys anyways can't resist this label) " thingy.
A few college girls detested the separation from their beloved guys, poor pammi aunty types separated from there shammi uncles, I was wondering who the idea is benefitting to.
A few brave men did try to board the pinky but were out rightly shown the door, poor they couldn't even ogle to fill an eye candy.
On a serious note why are we discriminating? We said we were equals, or perhaps it is the educated - illiterate India not rising up to human sensibilities to have being snapped this way.
Are we a cult that requires to be demarcated on either side of pink or are we sensible enough to get up and offer to be responsible and offer the valued silver possession to a more needful fella?
But yeah the Pinky is helpful.Kudos to Delhi metro guys...rest assured..no ...err..posterior rest assured.....
