Janhvi Kapoor on male insensitivity . Janhvi Kapoor is known for her beauty blast and impactful performances. She is now starring in NTR's Devara Part 2 and Ram Cahran's Peddi.
Now speaking to scribes, she shared her thoughts on male insensitivity. She said “Is it that time of the month?” are used to undermine women’s opinions and emotions. She said, “Agar main jhagda karne ki koshish kar rahi hu ya meri point ko saamne rakhne ki koshish kar rahi hu aur aap bolte ho, ‘Is it that time of the month?’ then, like, take a hike. But agar aap sach mein humdardi dikha rahe ho, ki, ‘Do you need a minute, is it that time of the month?’ (If I am trying to argue or put my point across, and you say, ‘Is it that time of the month?’ then, like, take a hike. But if you are genuinely showing empathy, like, ‘Do you need a minute? Is it that time of the month?’ then that’s different). Then yeah, more often than not, you do need a minute, because the way our hormones are off the charts, the pain we go through, that genuine consideration is always welcome.”
She added, “But that condescending gaze and tone is… because I assure you, men won’t be able to bear this pain and mood swings for even a minute. Pata nahi kaunsa nuclear war ho jaata agar mardon ko period’s hote (Who knows what kind of nuclear war would break out if men had periods).”
