However, gender stereotypes are not uncommon.<br /><br />Lekhni- I agree. But gender stereotypes are sometimes deep rooted in the mind.<br /><br />Pavi- I get your point. But like I said before, gender stereotypes are usually easy to think of- dad going to office and mom cooking, and unless you think a little out of the box, this happens. Nothing wrong with it though according to me, it is just the way it is.<br /><br />Sapi- :)sunshinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592553581294142760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14545899.post-51722230143936484862010-01-14T22:21:25.803-08:002010-01-14T22:21:25.803-08:00Hey that was a beautiful comparison.

Are we just talking abt the physical aspect? ‘coz that wasn’t the 1st thing I thot of..i was thinking mentally strong…n my mom came to my mind. Even Busy n powerful reminds me of many women I know. ‘coz im accustomed to seeing women..wake up in the morning..juggle work n cooking at home n then rush off to work. Powerful agn reminds me of women ‘coz I’ve seen how even if the small decisions in a home is made by the men..teh women are very important contributors to the big decisions.<br /> Beautiful, bright and shining..reminds me of chidren..not of women; not of men.<br /><br />n then about the city. No, even the description of the city doesn’t seem correct to me. I am reminded of several cities that never sleep…Blr,Vegas, Mumbai,Delhi… Night is when I see the hustle bustle of Blr traffic thru which I use to struggle to get home. It leaves me wondering IF a city ever becomes calm. Mabbe li’l towns do. But cities..never..not in my mind.<br /><br />I like the thots this post triggered in my mind.

It's got the features of an old lady, strong and confident, but someone who has the frailities of old age seeping through as well... and sometimes, it's interesting how obvious that becomes, as you're walking down one of your favourite lanes...Iddy Albatrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10533605127970355370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14545899.post-45502138936872620202010-01-13T23:37:47.317-08:002010-01-13T23:37:47.317-08:00wow, never really thot of it that way to be honest...wow, never really thot of it that way to be honest...what abt powerful, dominating, strong women?Reehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03846599815034251907noreply@blogger.com
