That's what harassed husbands claimed when feminist author Eve Ensler refused to meet them after a long wait of 5 hours
I Am An Emotional Creature, the latest play by American playwright Eve Ensler, of Vagina Monologues fame may have touched a chord with the city's women but the city's harassed husbands are angry at the way it portrays men.
They waited for five hours on Sunday at Kyra Theatre and Restaurant in Indiranagar where the play was being performed so they could meet Ensler and air their grievances, but it was in vain as Ensler refused to meet them.
Undaunted, activists of the Save Indian Family Foundation (SIFF) distributed pamphlets explaining how women misuse Sec. 498 (A) (cruelty to women by husband and his relatives) and commit atrocities against men.

"We were there to let her know about the situation in India, which is very different from that described in her play. Things shown here are far from reality and men are portrayed wrongly," said Mithun Kumar, another SIFF member.
The pamphlets distributed by the harassed husbands gave figures on how women commit atrocities against men and their women family members by misusing Section 498 (A).
Ensler's manager accepted the pamphlets. However, the men have not given up. "Ensler is said to be in Mumbai now and our team members in that city will take up the cause," said Kumar.
