I’m a woman. I think. I hate. I lie. I cheat. I’m not a virgin. I’m not a whore. Because, you know, women aren’t either virgins or whores – they are a complex mix of both. We have vices and virtues. We are not White or Black, we are fifty thousand shades of grey. We are complex. We are human. We have urges, as natural as yours. 
Sometimes, we don’t have them too. You cannot police us. We do not owe anything to you. You do not own us. We are beautiful, we are ugly. We are saints, we are murderers. We are everything; we can be everything, a complex mix of everything.
Accept it; deal with it, live with it.
This note is for those who resort to the popular (at least in India) tactic of silencing and policing women through “Women Are Goddesses, Therefore”*
* This phrase is used to deny women liberty and choice and they are made to fit into an “ideal woman” mould. For example – Give him another chance, be forgiving, women are the embodiment of goddesses after all (at the same time reducing men to grown up boy-children who Refuse To Mature And Must Be Mollycoddled By Women).

Love it!!!
& i completely agree. The whole women are goddesses notion is a very cheap way of tackling women & their issues especially in my country, India. Hope for a better tomorrow for all my women!!

This is so true & powerful. Thank you. I’m definitely going to share this.
Yes, lets break the norm of over judging the women!
I’m tired of that “we are goddesses” bullshit, Just another way to project a sort of perfection on us so everyone else can justify their interference.!
