Ms.Matchsticks and the man of no return


“Let someone love you just the way you are – as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.” — Marc Hack


Ah, the follies of literature Ms. Matchsticks thought while she read this quote. Clearly, Marc Hack never met brown men. Someone should take them and introduce them to the average Indian male smothered by their mother and trained to believe in the flawless slate of a woman's brain.


She was doing all of those thinking while he was telling her how small of a brain she had for not keeping up with his broken promises. After all, why wouldn't he? It's the right bestowed by him, from his mother to make sure the rest of the women in the world would be lucky to have.


Run baby run! Ms. Matchsticks thought to herself while she rolled her eyes at his blatant incapability to understand most what is already a child's play. Like, anxiety, depression and mostly, female emancipation.


So, Ms. Matchsticks decided maybe, just maybe she will pretend her way through his fables of right and wrong to see if he made of the metal he says he is. That was surely a waste of time. because, everybody knows that a woman's first blood hardly comes from between her legs, but biting her tongue since a child seeing the brotherhood of man.


So, why not nurture the so-called insanity described by him. it is the balance of the world. What's love if he just is not man enough, but a boy who thinks he is. Packing his bags at the sight of hardship because its a kind of hardship even he does not know how to spell.


So, ladies! Ms.Matchstick has decided to see through this fake manhood and reveal the metal he was actually made of. He was made of stale promises, a troubled view of right and wrong and mostly, an unemphatic man who thinks he can.


The man of no return and yet Ms. Matchstick swirls her teaspoon in her coffee cup, smiling through his incapability to be empathetic and human and exercising his betrothed brotherhood.


As he spits 'Bitch' and screams 'Witch', Ms. Matchstick whispers to her brain inside, ' I could be both, you know! '

Ms. Matchsticks and Soma Chakraborty Who Manufactures Rapists

Image
Ms. Matchsticks wastes time on social media because it is fun. But, sometimes she stumbles upon something that makes her stomach curl in disgust. It's mostly when she sees a woman excusing 'rape' of other women. In 2019, this woman is not a product of patriarchy. She is the definition of how men become rapists. Men are not born rapists, they are manufactured along the way, by mothers like these. So, Ms. Matchsticks wrote this! Her name, Soma Chakraborty ! A lady who is apparently a music teacher and also is a rapist manufacturer by day and night as we see. You will see in the live video below on what exactly she had to say to endorse 'rape' on women based on their clothing. Shivani Gupta - The victim of a horrible and gross abuse still stands tall in the video below exposing how women endorse rape in our daily life. How women who are mothers, wives and are educated pushes for the rape of women based on clothing. Must power and love to her! India is w...

Ms. Matchsticks and the curious case of Brotherhood

So, here is something fun today. Apparently, the world runs on some kind of brotherhood. For whatever that ever meant, thought Ms.Matchsticks. As if it's a cult upbringing between men to be told of the ties they share all through their human lives. It would be a good thing, had we been asked to join this manly club 33 too you know, Ms. Matchsticks almost said out loud. I mean, there has to be a limit to how many rooms she has to sneak out of, to avoid further collaboration with the extraterrestrial ideologies of brotherhood. Because, God forbid, what if she started to see the light in such cult ideas. Can happen. But, wait time to shove the panties in her purse and quietly eject herself from this room, she had to spend the night in. it is absolutely funny to see the force of brotherhood that settles the tug of war between sexes. Is it ever worth all of this? Isn't it easier to just nod along, Ms. Matcsticks wondered while she kissed his dog and tiptoed out. After all, ...

Ms. Matchsticks and The Surf Excel Holi Ad

Image
Like most unwarranted and hard lined outrages, the Surf Excel Holi Ad outrage is absolutely misplaced. ms. matchsticks have been seeing way too many hard liners turning anything and everything in to a narrative that fits their religiously devised politics. What about this ad that really bothered people. Some hard liners say that the Muslim boy needed rescuing. Some say that it represented a media stereotype of Hindu festivals. Some had a problem with the word 'daag'. That apparently is insulting, even though all these hard liners will be giving their white kurtas for wash after Holi. Because, let's be honest! Stain means daag. After Holi, the colors are stains on your clothes. And, stains are good here. Stains often remind us of the most beloved times of our lives. it reminds us that we breathed life in to our mundane chronicles. So, yes 'daag' is good. So, what is actually wrong with this Surf Excel ad? Because, the hard liners have their outraged back...
