Can we stop the vilification of Bengali women? - Page 3

Same thing??!!!! Okay, so finding one person guilty is the ISSAAMMME as branding an entire community of women as 'witches'.

You OK honey?

Let me explain with an analogy.

Doing one murder or 100 murders still makes you a murderer.

And there are no good murderers. They are all bad.

Let me explain with another anology.

A person blames Islamic terrorists for a terror attack

Another person blames the entire Muslim community for it.

Are both these things same ponymo?

What has happened to you? Did Rhea hire you for her PR?😆

Umm, no. Kids learn everything of their mother's customs. Even the ones living in their dad's city, adopt more things from their mom's side than dad's. Exception, the family living in a city/country that's totally alien to the man's as well as the woman's culture... then they pick the local language/customs more than the parents'. Even there, they are 70% of their mom, language/customwise.

If they live in a joint family with dad's parents they learn dad's side customs.. If its with mom's parents then mom side customs..

In a nuclear family its more about which parent is more involved in daily happenings at home Or at least talks more on day to day basis..mostly its mom so kids learn mother's language n customs.

More so when they stay away from both's native. Nowadays language mostly spoken in mixed houses is English though

Oh I miss seeing the Beautiful Aishwarya in ur DP.

And u mean one murderer doing 100 murders Or a group of murderers doing 100 murders?

U know its not the same thing.. In first only one person is guilty And in second the whole group is.

And either a person Or a group kills one or hundred.. They r guilty.

what even 😵

Stfu please...amar matha kharap hoye jacche reading these bulllshit

There are comments that Bihari families are toxic and gawar being made as well.

Since we are talking about fleeting generalised comments.... dont Ghotis make weird remarks about Bangal women? I have personally been subjected to that... older Ghoti women tend to call Bangal women ' quarrelsome ' and 'troublemaker' . Are the pseudo Bengali feminist verified handle wale ready to call out their own ???

This is not anything new. Kerala and Bengal are hot targets for RWers. And the reasons are obvious.

Anyways, I dont think this bothers me much. It feels priviledged to be hated for being smart and cunning and outspoken and a woman more liberated than many. 😆 Abusers can cry in their own little den, but I dont think Bengalis truly care for what 'Koopomonduks' think. 🤪

I'm a Bengali girl myself and fighting for Sushant's justice. I find Rhea's activities extremely suspicious and totally against her, the thing is that every Bengali girl is not the same. If a certain person is criminal, then that doesn't mean that his/her entire community would be the same. Our characteristics define who we are, not our communities.

No offence but why exactly do some sections of Bengalis and biharis hate each other? Some historical issue or geographical proximity? If someone has a controversial answer then please PM me.. This is a genuine question...something I observed in a few cases

Sexism + all those "Bangali baba"s.

Bengali, apart from Malayalee, are the only 2 Indian matriarchal societies in my knowledge. That paints them already as a target for sexist forces.

It doesn't help that "Bangali Baba" posters and graffiti can be found from anywhere in Mumbai to a remote village in India. This aids in creating a stereotype.

Apart from all this, I'm surprised as to why they always target women for sorcery. In the west, a witch sounds worse than a wizard. Likewise in India, a daayan sounds much worse than an ojha or a baba. Also, alleged male practicioners are almost never targetted by mobs. They're always out to lynch witches or daayans.
