Stayfree day & night..


Those few nights won't be the same,
crying and curtailing down to pain,
discorded and frustrated alone in the house,
and isolated to stray away in misery,
Will someday these downpours of Orthodox surcease,
and our mother's be granted peace..

Menstruation marks the birth of womanhood in a girl and is called for some abrupt social and physical changes. The characteristics being devastating and  full of pain. The ancient Orthodox Indian culture made these few days of pain even more tiresome by isolating the lady to a corner in the house and with some superstitious belief that she turns to a untouchable withing this period. Today our society may laugh at such rubbish thought's but perhaps this was the phase our grand-mother's had to pass through. 

On a hand we are expecting the feminine society to stand at the same zenith with the masculine society in every sphere and on the other there is still an orthodox society that belief's in such thoughts.

Stayfree now builds this platform to let every woman stand on the same height as that of man. Stayfree let's every girl compete with the rest of the world. And why not? We belong to a land of brave women like Rani Laxmi Bai, Sarojini Naidu and Durga Bhabi. Don't we see that same Sarojini Naidu inside ever girl born in this era? Yes we do.

Even during those day's of discomfort there's Stayfree that allows her to sleep in peace and wake up to stand brave in the rat race. Why should a girl postpone her success because of her menstrual cycle? 


Today she know,
that she won't be alone,
sad and stabbed to solitary,
and no mood offs or any tear,
when today she has a Stayfree,
to keep her forever happy..

I feel that there must be no restriction on expressing my view on this topic, just because I belong to the opposite gender. If I can desire for a woman to understand me, I can also step ahead and understand a woman.

I express my gratitude to every fellow blogger who did stand up for such a noble cause. Happy Blogging Mates!!

    1. Yes Sarthak, Rani Laxmi Bai is the greatest example. She was perhaps the most determined woman in Indian history. Have I cited something wrong?
