In Decoding MITHYA, Dr Smita Kamat Ghosh invites readers into a world where myths about womanhood linger like shadows, shaping lives in unseen ways. Through the gentle yet probing voice of Sakhi, the book's guide, Ghosh navigates the landscape of societal expectations. The myths of "Girls love pink" and "A woman's place is in the kitchen" are not just relics of the past; they are living narratives that quietly dictate how women perceive themselves and their potential. Each stereotype weighs heavily, cloaked in the guise of truth, fostering a silence that suffocates individuality.
