“In order to justify your nonsense, you continue to fight battles won long ago. You rage against threats that exist only in your mind....You focus on the colour of schoolbags, sexist pronouns, pink toys in Kinder Surprises and the sharing of dish-washing duties in relationships. All the while completely ignoring what it is that really threatens the freedom of women....Your aversion towards the patriarchy, manifested in the form of straight white males, has led you you to become bedfellows of all the other minorities who share that aversion.”
Marion Le Pen

Suranya Sengupta
“All the while, fighting for the self-respect and independence of her tribe, she was unaware of the chains of Patriarchy that bound her too. She had no place of her own. She was a nobody without the identity of a man, first her father and now her husband. She was as insignificant as the women she wanted to fight for. Life was a loop within the boundaries society drew around women.”
Suranya Sengupta, Rishta Tera Mera
