‘Many of them are educated’: Shweta Tiwari calls out abusive language against women online
Actress Shweta Tiwari has recently spoken out against the normalization of abusive language directed at women on social media. In a series of Instagram Stories, the contestant on The Traitors Season 2 questioned why people feel entitled to demean women they do not even know. Tiwari pointed out that such behavior cannot be attributed solely to a lack of education or awareness, as many of the offenders are educated individuals from respectable families.
She also shared personal experiences of receiving inappropriate comments about her children. In another post, she questioned whether the behavior truly represents Marathi culture, given her upbringing in Maharashtra and her belief in the respect women receive in that culture.
