I was 18 when I discovered feminism, though I had always been some confused version of a feminist in my mind without knowing that I was one. In fact, since I used to read women’s magazines a lot as a teenager, my impression about feminists was that they were women who burnt bras and were, in general, quite unpleasant people to be around.
And yet, I resented being told to do housework while it was never a compulsion for my brother. I hated the fact that my parents were buying gold jewelry every year for my future wedding. I was angry that I wasn’t allowed to wear jeans. All the million mutinies in my brain found validation when I studied feminism as part of my BA English course. Suddenly, everything made sense. Here, at last, was acknowledgement that much of my rage was justified – and what’s more, many other women, all over the world, had the same feelings. And it wasn’t just a bunch of emotions, it translated to their politics.
