A couple guys who were trespassing on a woman’s-only carriage of the New Delhi metro system were fined and then forced to perform sit-ups.
Every subway train in India has a special railway car dedicated solely to women. Though unusual, this policy was initiated to help protect females from inappropriate behavior, such as sexual harassment.
Unfortunately, Indian men sometimes like to break the rules. Lately, in fact, many men have been sneaking onto the female-only carriages because they’re unable to find a seat anywhere else.
The ladies have been putting up with it because they felt like they couldn’t stop it. But everything changed on Saturday, November 27, when police officers from Gurgaon, a large city 30 km south of New Delhi, raided the train in response to complaints from women.
Egged on by the police, the ladies on the train acquired the confidence to finally put the men in their place. Not only did they slap them around like Moe slapped Curly, but they even forced them to perform sit-ups.
“We found many male passengers in the women’s coach,” said police commission S. Deswal. “The moment the women saw us, they got the courage to teach the men a lesson.”
According to Indian newspapers, the men were very embarrassed. In India, women typically serve their men. So for women to stand up and put men in their place is quite unusual. Plus, the fact that these men, who were likely fat and out-of-shape, had to perform sit-ups in public… that’s just icing on the cake!
Congratulations to the women of India! But next time, don’t wait for the police to show up. You don’t need their help, because as every man wells knows, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!
