I have grown wary of people on NLU campuses talking about things relating to social justice. What they talk about rarely translates to their actual life. And if one does walk their talk, it comes at a heavy personal price. Better to just befriend everyone and stay shut about politics unless it's on social media to score points or something.

Which is a perfectly legitimate concern. If your concerns about reading apply to you also, and not just to women, maybe you want to read Oxford philosopher Amia Srinivasan on the subject. Of course she is a feminist woman so maybe you'll feel the need to call her also pseudo but the world takes her pretty seriously.

Lol. Then I'd say you're a brainwashed fellow. I can understand the WhatsApp uncles, since they weren't exposed to such literature before and therefore get swayed away by misinformation. But if you, an educated young person studying in one of the best law schools of this country stand for something that you've not even read about and can't even explain to a layman, what difference does it make between the WhatsApp uncles and you, a future lawyer?

If you want to fight for a cause whether feminism, israel-palestine or anything that's in the trend, go ahead, be my guest. But don't embarrass yourself by throwing in the excuse to "believe" in something without the hardwork. Tomorrow when you appear before the court or your partner, they'd want to see the actual hardwork that you did and not the belief that you did the hardwork.

& yes I've researched about the patriarchy when I condemned it in my last article. Get a life kid !

Ask them about the origins of feminism or to name female freedom fighters in India and watch them crumble right before you. All of this a "trend" without hardwork. None of them have read or researched anything worthwhile. They think fluent english and "it's her choice" to every answer makes them holier than thou. F them and the new age pseudo liberals.

In my uni, one such feminist in her final year became a member of Student Council, and first thing she did was to send an email asking people not to use 'Sir/Ma'am' because "this practice perpetuates a binary perception of gender, implying that individuals must conform to either "ma'am" or "sir" based solely on their gender identity."

In all law schools we see a feminist group that agitates against what they view as patriarchal policies and practices. For example, the lack of gender focus in the syllabus, comments by professors which reinforce stereotypes etc. Fair enough. But I wonder sometimes if this activism is really genuine? Some of these students make mean comments about other girls in college, they indulge in politics when it comes to dating and couples, etc. Also, many end up joining law firms which enable the patriarchy!
