[Long post] Things we should talk on Women's Day, and you'll agree to them
1. In depth Medical study of female body.
It is shocking how doctors treat women issues with a contraceptive pill (and it is just not in India). Not their fault, we don't have much data to refer to.
2. Shift focus on Male Contraception.
It makes more sense to remove bullets than move out people.
3. Inflation, poor life standards, lack of choices and pseudo feminists pushed women to earn a living.
While I 100% support financial independence, no one asked for support in household chores. Those are 24X7 jobs, and equally energy draining.
Yes, things are changing. Our generations' couples are well beyond but still needs fixing.
4. Make marriage & kids a choice and not norm or "next in plan" theory.
You want them? Cool!
You don't want them? Cool!
5. Talk about feminine health more.
Do not just write ass long LinkedIn posts dissing period leaves because you have fairly light ones. Also, periods are just one part. There are more steps and goes beyond reproductive age. Specific reasons why are mothers have suddenly been so cranky
6. Schooling needs recentering.
You put kids in all-boys/girls schools to prevent "young distraction" and when they embrace non-binary relationships, you are upset over not following "culture".
7. Men & women CAN be friends.
Yes, there are higher chances of the relations going beyond or less, but not all opposite genders experience sexual tensions. This is why we aren't animals (most of us aren’t)

1. We do need to popularise women's health. Most of us dudes don't really understand that y'all are walking concoctions of hormones about to blow up.
We men wake up exactly the same everyday so we really don't understand all the pain or blood you all lose on a monthly basis.
2. I ain't taking no male contraceptives. We know how it messes up your hormonal balance and we don't want any part of it

I was talking in terms of vasectomy though.
Was reading up on it, out of body procedure, reversible, just cuts off sperm flow - which exactly solves the whole scare.

Pills are dangerous for either gender.
Those girls are also at fault who take pills under pressure or willingly.
Contraceptive pills for women, when taken correctly, can effectively prevent pregnancy by suppressing ovulation, thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm from reaching the egg, and thinning the uterine lining to reduce the likelihood of implantation. However, they can also have side effects, such as changes in menstrual bleeding patterns, mood swings, nausea, and breast tenderness. Additionally, there are potential health risks associated with long-term use, including an increased risk of blood clots, heart attack, and stroke, especially in women who smoke or have other risk factors. It's important for women to discuss the potential benefits and risks of contraceptive pills with their healthcare provider to determine the best option for them.

Totally agree to the 1st Point. Been there done that. I put them in the dustbin secretly hiding from my mother who herself doesn't care to know about the side effects of those birth control pills .
We need more n more women in the gym , how come I wonder, the gym has few female participation. I want to personally educate women so that the gym becomes an active part of their life.
You ask me why do I put emphasis on it - suffered 2 years of missed menstruation bcoz of this shitty contra pills and then joined gym on the pressure of my male best friend that it turned out to be one of the most important pieces of advice that I ever received.

I have understood the need for physical fitness, but just too lazy to work on it.
Really need a big motivation to jump in.

Agreed. The fact that menopause is still taken lightly, heart attacks in women are still understudied, how female reproductive health is focused more on childbirth in medical industry instead of the women's health, lack of study and research on PMDD and PMS, detection of autism and ADHD in women. Misdiagnosing other mental health issues to bipolar disorder. Oh, I have a long list but you got the gist.

I have the gist. It is crazy how one gender got completely ignored and then want it to be empowered
