“Men Would Enjoy Your Figure”, Kolkata Prof Who Compared Virginity To Sealed Bottle Allegedly Said

Jadavpur University professor, Kanak Sarkar’s scandalous remark of equalling a virgin girl to a sealed cold drink bottle sparked massive outrage on social media platforms. Following the criticism, the Kolkata based teacher, who believes that a virgin girl is no less than an angel, penned down a long explanation for his controversial post.

In a bid to justify himself, Sarkar mentioned that his comments were a part of ‘social research’. Strengthening his argument, he went on to add that he was practicing his ‘right to express on social media’.

However, it turns out that Kanak Sarkar has a long history of sexist remarks. At least, a recent post from a student of the prestigious university, says it loud and clear.

Taking to Facebook, a female student narrated an absolutely shameful episode involving the man. The incident roots back to a time when she was giving a presentation in a class of 52 students and Sarkar was one of the professors in attendance. And then, she was suddenly interrupted by Mr. Kanak. While the girl thought that her HOD had some question to ask, Sarkar had a ‘compliment’ to make.

“I was giving a presentation in class one day and this man [Kanak Sarkar] interrupted me in the middle, and I thought it was to ask me a question.”

Much to her horror, Sarkar asked her if she aspires to be a model as he found her figure, perfect for the industry. Adding to his immoral remarks, he mentioned that the girl had a figure that ‘men would enjoy’. Needless to say, the student was disgraced in front of a jam-packed class.

“However, to my absolute dismay, he asked me if I want to grow up and become a model, since my figure is very model like. He also asked me if I have a lot of male friends, because according to him, I’m what men would enjoy.”

Mr. Kanak Sarkar, you don’t deserve to educate students when you yourself are far away from basic morals. We sincerely hope that the University has the right treatment in store for him.
