Gender Identity: reflections on East vs West

Blog posts
Over the years, I have been involved in various conversations around feminism, technology, and meaning of life, in general. College has been, by far, the most mentally stimulating environment in my life, and during college, the cadence and scope of my conversations have enhanced significantly. Whether igniting a conversation on the chemical composition of eggshells over breakfast, or engaging in a morally loaded topic in class, it has all been about sharing and learning in college.
As I plunged into adult life after graduation, my Broca area – the part of the brain responsible for speech and articulation – entered a state of vegetation, where stimulating conversations are in acute deficit. I deeply yearn for sharing ideas and learning new things about the topics that interest me the most in this world: technology and innovation, life and existence, identity and feminism.
In this blog, I want to both share my learnings about the world, as broad and spurious as they might get, but also compartmentalize my thoughts and ideas in one place. Too often, I feel that ideas (mine, my friends’ or the world’s) are too precious to be ephemeral, and that time is too expensive to be wasted into intermittent thoughts that remain untraced.

Adulthood: first (hot) takes

Note: I wrote this piece in a spur of a moment while I was waiting for a friend at the Columbus Circle Mall, New York. I might sound entitled and judgemental, but I decided to not appease its scolding demeanor and leave these thoughts in their raw honest form. Re-reading them, reminds me just how much my views have changed over time.
