You shouldn't expect a reward for something that is expected of you.
Just like when you're a parent, you are expected to support your kid, give them a good upbringing. You shouldn't expect rewards in return. The same goes for feminism. If you think your feminist views deserve a clap or a pat on the back, choose a better reason.
men lose their masculinity (the social reward for correctly performed manhood) through advocating for, sympathizing with, or doing labor that is allocated to women.
(and I'm not talking about some innate, spiritual, or psychological masculinity. I mean social masculinity--being regarded by higher ranking men as masculine.)
you genuinely do lose your current standing if you meaningfully and consistently object to the economic, legal, and interpersonal status of women, especially in ways that implicate men around you.
many men believe that if they are willing to do this, occasionally, then they are owed a recuperation of their masculinity through some other means.
if they are sacrificing masculinity through advocating for women politically, then they expect to bolster their masculinity through receiving expressions of gratitude and adoration by women ("feminist men are so hot" "consent is sexy" "pro-choice men get laid more" etc.) or they expect to bolster their masculinity through emasculating other men by asserting the standards of masculinity they adhere to are the "real" masculinity ("real men support women" "sexists are immature boys, I'm a man" "I'm secure in my masculinity and they're insecure" etc.)
to dismantle patriarchy, you need to be able to advocate for women even when it means losing gendered status. other men mostly will not respect you, and many misogynist women will not respect you either. it might not get you laid or praised or validated. in fact, it will probably subject you to increased scrutiny and criticism (because feminized subjects are always subject to such, and if you lose social masculinity, you too will experience this to some degree).
will you still advocate for women even if there is no social benefit and only social cost? do you have principles, or do you just want the fantasy of being a benevolent ruler?

भारत, our homeland is named after her name, भारती
Our land has been the land of wisdom and knowledge. Be it astronomy, science, and maths or art, cuisine, and medicine.
It seems like our mother has abandoned us when we stopped listening to her voice. We stopped respecting and listening to our elders and their teachings, we lost faith in our traditions and our culture, we let our rituals and routines be influenced and turned into something we can't even recognise. Without our mother, our guide, we stumbled from the path of धर्म. Now we're left vulnerable from the attacks of अधर्म.
And how are we to fight our battle against अधर्म without knowledge? How are we to stand up for what's right when we don't even know the truth? We can't even recognise it even when it's looking right at us.
Our enemies don't just hold g*ns and swords. They have made misinformation, manipulation and manufactured narratives their first choice of weapon. The battlefield is also virtual now.
To fight against them, we need knowledge and strategy and clarity. There's a need to reconnect with our culture and the teachings of our religion.
Their source is a random x/twitter post. The xenophobia is so evident here.
Indian lies exposed by a plethora of international audiences, all singing praises of PAF and the befitting response it gave to the bleak Indian cunts.
India has now broken their ceasefire after begging U.S. for one (source: https://x.com/sumonkais/status/1921255188800958668?t=dq3PuFCIOmcqcLbNduigZQ&s=19) and attacked further airbases. Pussies. Asked for the CF and then stabbed again.
Thought this was a recent post. But this is from a year ago.
Because the question still stands true.
Ones again they are all silent. Not even a single word. They hate BJP but why don't they talk about victims who are hindu?
What kind of rivalry they had with Kanhaiyalal?
What kind of rivalry they had with Sakshi?
What kind of rivalry they had with Shradha?
What kind of rivalry they had with Ayush and Aahan (literal kids)?
What kind of rivalry they had with those Hindus on Mira road that day?
Why this "secularism" is one sided? And why I am a "fascists" to call this bullshit out? Why can't they just freaking stop being this heartless!?
Can I join whatever this conversation is. I'm a devotee of Maa Saraswati. I'd like to learn more about her
What if Kanya-Saraswatism Tantra had it's own set of Mahavidyas, said to be forms of Saraswati?
Bhadrakali, Neela Saraswati, Kameshwari, ,,, Vac devi, Matangi, Kamale Kamini
OMG YEAHHHH
Wait does that means Brahmani or Ugra Kaushiki would also be considered Mahavidyas or are they separate???
Also how many Mahavidyas exactly???
Also Gayatri and Savitri??? Or are they different in this???

From an astrology perspective, there are many planetary combinations and aspects that can lead to disability.
The one that I can remember right now says that, if you have Saturn(or an aspect from Saturn) in the 5th house, which represents your children, means you'd have a child with disability. So, it doesn't have to be your past life karma, it could be your parents'.
I have a question for hindublr!!! :>
How common actually is the belief that disabled people are disabled for sins in past lives?
I read it in an "intro to hinduism" type book I picked up, but as a disabled person it really doesn't sit right with me and I kind of doubt it's that common of an belief?
Ty for your perspectives :3
We took a train from New Delhi to Jammu Tawi, and from there a smart city e-bus till Katra.
This was our view of the sky and the sun from the bus.
The setting sun from the place we rented at Katra before our climb. We decided to begin at night after a good dinner.
This must be at around 11 PM.
Didn't click any pictures around the Bhawan because we were too tired from the climb. Plus we had submitted our phones. We got to attend the morning aarti at 6 AM and we were in there for a good 2 hours of duration. After that we collected our belongings and headed for the ticket counters for the ropeway.
Took the ropeway for Bhairo temple.
And that is the Bhawan from the viewpoint from the Bhairo temple.
We took a train from here back to New Delhi.
