Workplace woes are never ending for women. They are told to settle with salaries that they don’t deserve, salaries that feel mildly significant.

Short dresses and mini skirts are not labels of promiscuous women, the thoughts of labeling a woman with a tag is only the end result of an unrefined mind. Why are women advised to wear only saris and salwars? If the inches between the blouse and sari are not provocative, how could a few inches on your leg directly jump to the conclusion of rape? YOU GO GIRL!

No Means No
