Singer Chinmayi who is pretty much active in calling out the misogynist, regressive, backward opinions of individuals that are being made against women, shared a video of an acclaimed Carnatic music vocalist Vishaka Hari comparing girls with gold and said that women repeating misogynistic/patriarchal ideas is something not new. She also reminded about a famous quote of world famous boxer Muhammad Ali to state that no matter who is making the opinion, if a statement is misogynistic, it should be called out.
In the video, Vishaka Hari could be seen saying that women are not getting as equal rights as men because they are like gold. She compared men with stainless steel which is widely used unlike Gold which will be preserved in a safest place.
“You will always lock up gold in your bero. you don’t do that to stainless steel. That’s why, generally, when women ask that they have not been given equal rights as men, I will tell them, “you are gold. That’s why you have less rights, they have more rights” Whatever you respect more, you lock it up” the singer said with people around lauding her.
“You will carefully preserve it. So, there’s no question of being ill treated at all. The more you respect a person, the right comes down” she said. The video was shared in an Instagram page named “Glitchophobia” with a caption “Stainless steel ah nanu?”
