Pakistani and Indian misogynists are fighting over cultural accuracy of Heeramandi; while thousands of girls and women are being kidnapped, trafficked, forced and coerced into these brothels in Pakistan and other regions in South Asia, where m3n from all backgrounds rape them.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali, a m@n makes a mockery out of women's oppression in prostitution and people validate him by mass glorifying a whole misogynist institution involved in the commodification of the female body for thousands of years.
Prostitution seems like a fun game to both right and liberal left, where girls and women are cosplaying because they like being raped by stranger m3n. The m3n; who are fathers, brothers, sons, government officials, religious scholars, politicians, labourers even the disable ones - each one of them gets free access to abuse the female body.
"But the women consent to it, they find it empowering."
Performing coerced sexual acts which the m@les want you to do, so that you can earn money to feed yourself and survive financially is not free consent.
Being abused as a piece of flesh with no soul for the m@le pleasure is not empowering.
It is not a regular job like working at a retail shop. Risking your health and life by getting raped by m3n because there are no other means of earning and that your pimps can k!ll you if you try to escape is patriarchal oppression.
And if prostitution was actually empowering, we would see mass trafficking of m@les into the same institution. There is a reason why its only females and why prostitution has never benefitted any woman but m@les.

Just finished watching the first episode of heeramandi (you either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain) and this is my review WITH VAGUE SPOILERS
Alamzeb either has a mirror related kink or is just narcissistic
Everyone but Mallika has a crush on Cartwright and Cartwright cannot digest that
Mallika and Alamzeb are both rude and think it's superior and cute to be rude, respectively.
Everyone has a crush on Tajdar, including Mallika. (I think it's the hot translucent kurta with cute heart embroidery at the shoulder)
Alamzeb sucks at being quiet but that's not a huge issue, currently.
Consequently, Alamzeb's bestie/servant and Mallika's driver are fucking (in a haystack)(why)
Bibbojaan is the local eldest daughter who has too many responsibilities but is still loved by everyone around her because she developed a facade of being cute and bubbly.
The writers sat to plot down characters and searched up the things that booktok girlies find hot and wrote such scenes for Tajdar. (Him caging Alamzeb against a wall THRICE in the span of two meetings. Wow. Be less subtle, why don't you?) (kuch aur bhi baki ho toh make him say that he wishes he could worship her for their lives. Or make him caress her neck seductively)
Usse yaad aaya, Cartwright resorted to seducing Ustaad ji for info on Mallika??? DUDE. Seduction is an art. Answering your door in a towel isn't a part of that art. You're just asking him to jump your bones. All that naked chest and for what??? Hickeys.
Waheedan is smart. Absolutely love her stealing techniques. And she imagined a make out session with Cartwright within 3 minutes of meeting him. Fellow delulu girlie.
Lajjo has an alcoholism issue but she's got no issues on speaking facts. Alamzeb cannot be a shayra brother she needs to hone her skills
The casual child trafficking in this show is something that i don't have words for and hence I saved it for the last. It's honestly jarring how easily SLB mentions it. But as a writer, I get that he's trying to show how small of a thing it used to be at the time. Perhaps the trauma could have been explored more
I think we're seeing the show mainly from Alamzeb's pov and hence it's a little more rose tinted. Idk. Will find out
I really need to play more tennis
