Oakridge International School, Varthur Road - Students speak against gender inequality through street play

BENGALURU : Students of Oakridge International School, Bengaluru, hit the streets to challenge societal pressures and gender inequality on the occasion of Republic Day.


Class 10 students of the school staged street plays on Churc Street and at Cubbon Park on Saturday, highlighting issues revolving around gender stereotypes shackling boys and girls. They sought to question body shaming and societal pressures. One of the plays mocked fairy tales wher princesses are expected to be fair, slim and  long-haired, while the prince charming is forced to be macho with a six-pack abs to “be a man” and not allowed to be sensitive or emotional by crying.
