Siya: Is the sensitive portrayal of rape enough to change the mentality of the people?
FirstpostThough our movies have come a long way from the glorification of sexual misdemeanours in movies like ‘Insaaf Ka Taraju’ or ‘Madhumati’, to sensitive portrayals in recent films like ‘Siya’ or ‘Pink’, is it enough? Why the most teachable moment of the Chandigarh University debacle is to subvert gender-reductive phrases like ‘boys will be boys’. Begin by subverting the meaning of gender-reductive phrases like ‘boys will be boys’ and ‘girls will be girls’. Let the boys in ‘boys will be boys’ be boys who believe that men and women are different, but would not take advantage of that difference.
