Slut walk.. Earth hour.. The shenanigans of Urban Yuppies

It was a proud day for me today... Yesterday my fellow urban yuppies in Delhi taking a cue from the urban yuppies in west (the real trend setters) did a SLUT WALK YO! (And making a V sign with my fingers right now)....

Here is an excerpt from the interview with one of the participants....

Reporter: So how are you feeling doing this today madam

Slutwalker:I cant believe how hot it is... I don’t know how people can walk in this weather....

Reporter: Umm Ok ...What do you have to say for the rights of women in India...

Slutwalker: Oh yeah ... these poor people and villagers get drunk and treat women badly....I think that is very bad....

Slutwalker: Are you taking pictures as well.... Coz you know I bought this PRADA skirt esp for slutwalk... And thank god the sun is out ... My D&G shades go well with my PRADA skirt...

Reporter: Moving on... How about we organise a trip to UP where a number of women have been raped.. We should all do a protest march there to raise awareness....

Slutwalker: Gives a blank look... Are you serious...I can’t go to UP ... Ok hang on.... Are there any good hotels there... I think we can make it a weekend trip...

Reporter as he is about to move on... Is interrupted by the Slut walker... You know what else I have done for charity /social cause... I switched off lights in my house for the earth hour... We bought scented candles for the whole house and lit them while the lights were out.... It was LIKE so cool and it was LIKE so pretty.... we had so much fun... But dad did feel a bit nauseated by all the fragrance in the air and tommy my dog was sick for a week.... But we saved the earth from global warming that day...

My dear slutwalker... Following what everyone is doing is called herd mentality... Why couldn’t you have done a no makeup week.. Where all ladies go without any makeup.. .. Trust me this would trouble men more.. Slutwalk is just more fodder to the already slutty image of women... ..Rest assured this will never happen in the west... As boob job... push up bra... plastic surgery.. botox were not invented in the east... Women have one role there... Look good at every age and in every role be it a mom or teacher..... You really want to follow them to improve image of women?

Ladies of India Mamta banerjee is one leader you can follow... Simple, outspoken, brave, kind hearted a true role mode... (but I guess not glamorous enough) Still have to find a similar icon in the west... Kate.. Michelle, Carla are just style icons ....Only job is to look good and be involved in shenanigans such as slut walk..
