It must be among the most regressive, abominable and anti-women pieces of writing ever published in a leading mainstream Indian newspaper. An editorial titled ‘Me Too Mahaamari’ (Me Too Epidemic) published in leading Odia daily Samaj last Sunday (October 21) termed the women who have come out in the open to recount their tales of sexual exploitation at the hands of their bosses or seniors at the workplace as part of the #MeToo campaign in India as baaraanganaa (prostitutes) who used their bodies to move up the career ladder. As if that was not enough, it asks the women why they don’t send their younger female relatives to extract their pound of flesh since their old bodies don’t hold any charm for men anymore!
