Nah, just vanilla points for me. 😏

It wast a thing in education, but they made it mandatory in 2007

So even educational institution, including third party, are segregated

People worked hard to get rid of segregation in America, and now people want it back.

Look

Segregation can help in rabid places in India

But in western societies

If you want equal opportunity, you need to stop segregation, atleast in public

Though god bless Indian govt for keeping ladies section in public transport

I mean, technically ladies can still go stand wherever they want

People have been asking for "spaces for <x> demographic," and it definitely sounds like segregation.

But guys are not allowed to enter ladies only section, except for that one senior citizens seat towards the door

Why though?

I mean, to prevent sexual harrassment, women only spaces make sense

They don't like white people.

Who?

Also brb

I mean, yeah. Obviously some segregated spaces are needed, like bathrooms.

:)

Duh

Again, to prevent sexual harrassment, even though if you care about the nitty gritty, same sex sexual harrassment is a thing

But then opposite sex sexual harrassment is more commonly known

So people need to Ake measures for that

Again, culture matters

In South Asian societies at least, girls have more consequences to their actions than boys

Well, that's fucked up.

We're aiming to change that, but with more and more people sticking to traditions here, were a lost cause

So obviously we need some incentives for women here to stay safe

Though, it's believed that the legal system here is the opposite of that.

As in?

Harsher sentences for men who commit the same crimes.

Like, the segregated public transport is a reaction law to the rape cases being publicised believe it or not

True

No, legally women have less consequences too

I'm talking about traditionally

Are people really doing those bad things on *public transit*?!

Yes, unfortunately I'm kind of a witness

Idk whether it was on purpose, but once a man rubbed his crotch on my shoulder as I was sitting

From that time, I decided to go into less crowdy buses even if it meant waiting

Plus people stare

Like all genders
