"I'm beginning to feel like a sexy sadhvi," I laughed to an acquaintance the other day. Suddenly, last week, a range of organisations and individuals wanted me to come do conversations, talks and workshops on consent, sexual interaction, and general gender gyaan - the things I've worked on for much of my life which they suddenly found 'so important'.
It reminded me of what a feminist activist in the middle-American town of Duluth, Minnesota told me about their domestic violence initiative years ago, "The only time the system or even the world actually deals with domestic violence, is when it becomes a murder case, when it results in the death of a woman. Before that we keep treating it like a minor personal issue."
