Change of time
In Ramayana - Surpanakha proposes Ram, who send her to Lakshman which in turn cut her nose, ears and breasts (in south indian ramayana).
In Mahabharata - Hadimba proposes Bheem and Bheem marry Hadimba and had a child from her.
Such a contrast in both mythological sagas.
Reason for bringing out these characters is that i love how women takes initiative and profess their love to the other person, even though they belong to different sects.
It's funny how men have made women feel that they are inferior or they "depend" on men for their needs (be it emotional, physical or financial). So it's not accidental that women feel terrible about their bodies and doubt themselves.
Now a days across the globe, the demand to treat them equally has grown, which is SUPERB. People have started realizing that women are not their possessions, they are humans and need to be treated equally.
