Unmarried women in Chennai are routinely denied pap smears and hormonal IUCDs. 😳😳
It's like a new chapter in dystopia everyday in India these days.
And this is Chennai. City of the never married Jayalalitha!
How injust is this?😡. A woman is considered the property of a man, to be handed over by a father to a husband to a son. Doesn't she hv agency over her body?
Cervical Cancer is a great Public Health Threat to India, & at Pap Smear is an important simple test to fight it. A woman can be in a live-in relationship, extramarital life, premarital sexual life, promiscuous. All these r acceptable, & no one hs the business to question these. Her life. Her choices.
Denying Pap Smear to a lady, is one of the most cruel acts u can perform in your life. Don't be a villain.
