View point versus reality

In a recent controversy, a renowned actress was targeted by a media company over the visibility of her cleavage in one of her public appearances. There were lot of questions raised related women respect, news coverage quality, media responsibility, objectification of women in india, so on and so forth. There was like a war going on twitter. Inside of all this the actress expressed herself through her writing and then she shared with the public. In a way, she raised her voice against the treatment given to a female in India. I read that article over and over again where she is expressing her point of view. And then there are her followers and admirers who are supporting her. More than 1.5lac people liked her article. So let's look at what is a point of view and what is real here. As a human being she has a body of a female. A female body has breasts. For all human beings, I would like to remind you that breasts are not only a sex symbol, it's a nature gift to feed a new born. The reporter who has made this headline, was also once fed (maybe). The actress has a breast that creates a cleavage on centre of her upper body. So?  In reality it means nothing. Nothing absolutely nothing. Now from here, what meaning you want to add or create is upto you. So let me add a meaning here that there is nothing on this earth that can give disrespect to such a thing even if it is zoomed with best of the camera lenses on this earth. The visible cleavage or for that matter a nude body does not have a meaning attached to it called disrespect. One needs to clearly think and see the difference between what's real and what is the meaning you are attaching with it. It is your responsibility for the meaning that you create; everywhere and all the time. Yes, the actress pointed out one more this - context. Context of an entertainment section of a media coverage for having a lose talk and encouraging gossip is surely justified. After all that gives great readership. The intention of the media is fulfilled here. But who has given this meaning that the famous people should face the brunt of it. They are into a profession which gets lot of money and attention. So you create a viewpoint that any crap would create a headline? Gossip is a disease. One tries to peek into other people lives just to check if their lives are worse than us. Believe me you are already living in hell if you are gossiping. You need to clean your thoughts. It's time to introspect.
