Discussion on Smriti Irani’s article on West stepping back and India showing the way in Indian Express Article
And what is interesting is also that despite India becoming a hub for surrogacy, where poor women would opt for would be bioavailable, right, their bodies are available for surrogacy to people from the west. And the government has more or less put a sort of territorium on this through the Surrogacy Regulation Act 2021, wherein the government has replaced commercial surrogacy with ethical altruistic surrogacy. So this would also prohibit these vulnerable women from becoming victims of this kind of a commercialization of motherhood

She doesn't need the mental health care. I'm so p***** off. I think you can probably guess that. But yeah, I don't think the west or the east are winning this at all because nobody is talking about the real issues here. The real issue here is why are we letting the west benefit off of our country so much with every single thing? Look at those tiny little kids that go into those Mica mines in Japan and all of these mining states

Dear Vinity, thank you for this remarkable response. It's just I know you are angry, and rightfully so. And we share the angst, sister. We do

Birth control, literacy, education, these are all things that I know have come about in India because politicians took it up. So there is a case to be made that maybe women's rights also will only come about when politicians seriously take it up. You do have a case for it
