Journal of the Indian institute of architects :(JIIA)Summary: It has always been intriguing (and disappointing) to see a
gendered claim of certain spaces in the city. This photo essay
is a basket of such observations collected over time from the
places I have lived in or travelled to. As I look through the lens
of gender, I remember a remark by a gender studies researcher-
--women are always in transit mode. They are not seen idling on
streets and nukkads like men. They do not take afternoon naps
on benches in parks. In fact, they are seldom seen 'enjoying' the
city as much as their male counterparts.
