If you want to be respected equally and live fearlessly, with dignity, respect and freedom you must do the following: 1. Give up your claims on any sort of reservation because where there is reservation there is no fairness 2. Abolish any scheme that gives any advantage to girl students like free schooling, free bicycles etc. Why should a boy walk 5 kms to school and pay 1000 rupees a month when you whizz past him on free bicycles to free classes. 3. Scrap the women’s reservation bill. Fight elections without any additional advantage and win. We can have a rule that says 50% of the candidates should be females. 4. Scrap the need for separate coaches for women on Metro/Local Trains. At least the rush will be distributed equally. Also scrap the reserved seats on busses. Let it be purely on a first come first served basis 5. Remove the system of having separate Queues for women. 6. Stand up and tell your dad after finishing school “Dad I would like to work, earn and maintain myself and I will support you if needed”. 7. Stop dreaming about Rich handsome guys as husbands who will ensure that u cruise through life with a lifestyle that u dreamt off. 8. Stop that “crying-whenever u don’t get what u want” business and learn to deal with disappointments. I know the above points sound harsh in India, but we must realise that where there is preferential treatment there can never be anyequality. There will always be a “giver-and –Receiver&

Thats not fair at all. That will be a fair assesment when 70% of Indian women are liberated and empowered and lead independent lives. Which is surely not the case!

Another 11. Stop thinking that just because you are a woman, you can be rude, arrogant and demeaning but others should always be polite with you.

Gaurav - you are missing the point. Special provisions to women are given only because they are mistreated - emotionally, physically, financially, socially and psychologically - by men for centuries. Women should not read, write, speak in public, wear the pants for family, press the gas pedal etc etc, Now when do they get a chance to come out the woods?
Your objections all point out to the fact that you are concerned that women may get powerful compared to men. So even before they can carve an indepedent identity for them in society, average indian men would want to stamp out everything by posting counter arguments.
First give them space then ask them to relinquish favours.
