For years, people have tried to dominate the lives of women in one way or another. It’s the year 2020, and some of us continue to be bombarded with unsolicited advice on how to live our lives. It’s bizarre that people have so much to say about a woman’s life. How to dress, how to talk, how to eat, when to get married, what to do at your job, when to have kids.. the list could go on. Speaking from an Indian girl’s perspective, comments about most of these issues are delivered with so much mindlessness, it makes me wonder if people ever really pause for a second and think before talking. For most of us, tuning out such comments has been the ultimate saviour. But its also an absolutely normal emotion to experience wanting to pull your hair out when people talk smack to you!
Ahead, we give you a list of common comments women are tired of hearing and if you’re someone who’s guilty of making them, you know what to do!
25 women list down the most annoying comments they just cannot put up with:
1. Alisha Fernandes
OMG, your arms and legs are so hairy. Time to get waxed!
2. Natasha Patel
I think your upper lip would give any man a run for his money.
3. Pooja Maheshwary
Your bra strap is showing.
4. Saania Hava
Why are you being such a feminist?
5. Akansha Harmalkar
You’re a girl, sit properly!

What do you mean you don’t ever want to get married? Are you crazy? You’ll go to waste!

You can do whatever you want once you get married and your husband allows.
