I'm a self-absorbed Bengali-Torontonian; Fish comes to me raw, wrappend in seaweed, not cooked in curry; I love watching thunderstorms and rain; Sad endings make more sense to me than happy ones; I hate empty walls.

Read an article on the Metro recently about a latest addition to Girl Power. Apparently there is a big demand for T-shirts with labels such as 'Boys are Stupid-poke their eye out', for tweens/teens (girls).
Is this what 'Woman's Rights Movement' has brought about? Humour in abusing boys/men? Will it have been equally funny if the T-shirts read 'Girls are dumb-kick them'? Nope, there would be an outcry!
Have the tides of power turned around so much that we have began to misuse it in the same way that men did decades ago?
Can we not reach equality on our own without subjugating the men? Army Pfc Lynndie England (Iraq), Karla Homolka (Canada)- why are they treated/viewed differently from their men partners?- 'England wouldn't even harm a dog',says her family; 'I was forced to help him', says Homolka. When will the world see them as they are- hardened criminals.
I have began to detest the word 'Feminist'.I can only think of my brother watching a girl wearing this T-shirt, and faces of millions of babies whose killing have been upheld by women using the excuse of 'rights'.
