The weather is not as predictable as we would believe it to be. Take yesterday as an example. The whole day the sun was bright and it was a normal warm day. Even the weather predictions on that I looked up on the internet showed sunny with slight clouds. Then out of nowhere the sky turned slate gray and the wind picked up.

Homosexuality is a topic smothered in discomfort in our nation. Be it in our college, community, household, and even social gatherings, people still treat it as a disease and pass judgments. Not only are these people narrow-minded, they are very opinionated about something that doesn’t concern them.

Bura naa maano Holi hai (don’t mind, it’s Holi) is a popular slogan, allowing people to smother you with colors, soak you with water, and come in any contact. Sure, it’s meant to be taken in festive way, but I personally wouldn’t want random men to touch me.

The recent bill for amending anti rape laws had created a whirlwind of confusion and differences among the policy makers. While the government continued to battle over various clauses like stalking and other issues related to the criminal law ordinance; one of the amendments regarding “age of consent” caught my attention.
