Please keep adding to this list if you can think of any.
Like I just thought of one now.
Mata Saraswati would really feel bad when someone gets made fun of their voice or of their speech impairments.
I have been thinking about this and realised that we don't actually have a deva or devi for beauty. People think it is Mata Lakshmi but it's not true. None of her Ashtalakshmi forms also have her represent beauty. Mata
The sibling pairs have different skin colours — Vishnu-Parvati are dark skinned, Shiv-Saraswati are fair skinned, Brahma-Lakshmi are golden skinned — and all of them are called beautiful.
So where does this concept of beauty even come from? That fair is beautiful and dark skinned is not? Does it come from the west? From goddesses like Aphrodite, Venus or Freya? Or were they also made to represent beauty in the modern world to suit white people's beauty standards?
Like I said they'd use "misinformation manufactured narratives and manipulation". And just look at how dedicated they are to this.
I'm glad some of us are doing the right thing by fighting this with truth. Because in the end truth triumphs.
They've called all families in our society who are from UP and everyone's singing bhajans and kirtans in bhojpuri and awadhi. By everyone, I mean, it's all the women. My mother's also there. And hearing it all feels so good. It is because it's quite rare that this kind of event happens. And yeah connecting to the language is an added benefit here.
Does anyone know what a "Shiv charcha" is though?
What's more interesting is that the Tridev took rebirth as sons of Anusuya and Atri. And it was Brahma who was born as Chandra.
And according to some texts, Brahma and Lakshmi are siblings (just like Shiv and Saraswati, and Vishnu and Gauri are siblings). So, yeah he again became Lakshmi's brother when they emerged from the sagar manthan.
So no one ever told me about Ram ji roasting the moon and listing it faults because it's just not as beautiful as Maa Sita after looking at her once in the gardens? No one?
And then he just returned to his Guru like nothing happened? As if he didn't just talk to the moon and insult it?
I generally prefer Valmiki Ramayan but the Balkand in Ramcharitmanas is pure gold.

Rukmini Devi, the Queen Consort of Krishna is the Swarupa-shakti (mulaprakriti), and she is the Queen / Mother of the Divine World (jagatkatri), Dwaraka/Vaikunthah.
You are Jaanki, you are Lakshmi, the one who resides on Lord Vishnu's chest. You are the empress of Vaikuntha! You always shower blessings on your Devotees.
-Rukmini Ashtakam

O daughter of ruler of Vidarbha & the beloved of Kṛṣṇa! We bow down to you. O Goddess & giver of all wishes! please accept our offerings of worship and we pay our obeisance to you
Oh the one who sparkles by the beauty of all limbs! By all these I know that you the most beautiful, the daughter of the Bhoja king (Rukmini), are the second soul of Krishna
Krishna bring whipped 🤭:
"My mind is always fixed on Rukmini, just like hers is on me. I can’t even sleep at night."
Oh god. This is disturbing.
Rapists are not some alien species. They live amongst us. They grow in silence, in group chats and communities online. Getting away with all their tiny little acts of perversion. Until they get the confidence (backed by others like them) to commit such heinous condemnable acts.
The legal/ justice system will have to bring justice to this, we gotta keep pushing. They should be forced into taking a decision. Wish we just had enough international presence to put India's legal system in focus, so that they'd do something to save face
everyone who supports a rapist or is a rapist himself is a threat to women. these ppl are sick in the head. you won't believe me when i say this but they don't even respect our goddesses and create their own communities on reddit where they masterbate to their images or abuse many girls....this is their way of showing how much they disrespect us...the way guys talk about women is traumatizing
this just makes me more sick. abhi bhi ghamand hai apne gender pe??? im asking all the men here who are still quiet

श्रीराम राम रघुनन्दन राम राम । श्रीराम राम भरताग्रज राम राम । श्रीराम राम रणकर्कश राम राम । श्रीराम राम शरणं भव राम राम ॥
Rama who is the delight of the Raghus । Rama who is elder brother of Bharata । Rama who is tormentor of his enemies । I come under refuge of God Rama.
श्रीरामचन्द्रचरणौ मनसा स्मरामि । श्रीरामचन्द्रचरणौ वचसा गृणामि । श्रीरामचन्द्रचरणौ शिरसा नमामि । श्रीरामचन्द्रचरणौ शरणं प्रपद्ये ॥
I remember the feet of Sri Ramachandra in my mind । I praise the feet of Sri Ramachandra by my speech । I salut the feet of Sri Ramachandra by bowing down my head । I take refuge on the feet of Sri Ramachandra by bowing myself down.

Newsflash, Hindus have a divine feminine, and no she's not just pretty pretty as Lakshmi, or pure and simple as Saraswati, she's also rage and destruction like Kali and Durga. If you don't believe in this, you're a misogynist, because why will you see only a masculine figure as God?
And what about transwomen? To feel more close to womanhood, they wear churi, payal, and bindi too. Are you telling me that's wrong?
Hindu traditions and festivals just enslave women and reinforce patriarchal practices, karwa chauth for example, a festival where a married woman has to fast and stay famished for whole 24 hours, NO water and food and some of them don’t even swallow their own saliva and why? for the long life and well being of her husband. Husbands are placed on a pedestal in hinduism, he is more revered than god sometimes while reducing women to obedient and self sacrificing caretakers . It reinforces the idea that a woman’s purpose revolves around a man’s needs, his health, his happiness, his survival while her own identity and agency is considered as irrelevant. In this religion women’s existence will always be tied to men and are expected to embrace such misogynistic ideals or else she’ll be labelled as a “too westernised housewife” or other names they love calling when you go against the system
As a man, who's spent enough time in men's spaces to know how they think and why they act the way they act, I can say it's all because it is reinforced and backed by the men in that group. I think it's called peer influence.
One man alone will never act on his perverse thoughts, but once he comes across other men who think the same way, it becomes a daily conversation. They egg each other on. They encourage each other. Give each other that confidence.
( This applies to everything. Men interested in stock markets, men interested in global politics, men interested in sports. They bond over this shared/common interest. That's how a community works I mean )
We have so many examples of this, France's Gisele Pelicot case or the Bois locker room incident from Delhi or that group chat of some thousands of men.
No amount of shaming, no amount of education, no amount of legal action will change them, will fix them. Because there's always a bunch of men supporting them and blaming the victims. Because if you're not like them, you're not a man enough. You're weak, soft, omega, or simp, and what not.
