The above displays of “manhood” by our male political leaders, and others, is really shameful, but who is talking and who is listening?!
Regardless, as far as I am concerned, what our male political leaders, and those wielding considerable political and other powers, are involved in is a “display” of cojones to determine who has the bigger ones!
Women, of course, as far as they are concerned, don’t have them! So obviously, they can’t participate!
And it’s for that reason and many others that Nepal needs a revolution…of the mind!
