Being part of the dominating gender in our society I may not be able to understand how does it feel to be treated as some inferior being. And its not just my society I am talking about here, its the same case everywhere. And its unfortunate.

Its been a real lesson for me. The biggest let down from someone whom I started looking upto as a mentor and as a senior.
