Does anyone know how much the cutoff of MA sociology is? I know paper was much easier than the last 2 yrs ...so I just want to know how much it can raise this year ?

So Apparently ,this Easter weekend, hosting a church speaker at our home has revealed something uncomfortable which I personally noticed as a Sociology student . What is called “hospitality” quickly turns into unpaid, gendered labor ...for example like -women cooking three meals a day for 10–15 people, for days.

Respecting a guest is one thing, but turning it into a hierarchy is another. The speaker is treated with exaggerated reverence, while women quietly absorb the workload. Even at the dining table, when seats fall short, it is women who are also the church elders who are expected to adjust, to sit aside, to eat later. Why is their dignity always the most flexible part?

What’s worse is the double burden placed on them. A sister from church, after performing a special number in the service, came straight to our house—not to rest, but to cook. Participation followed by obligation...

Even the pastor’s own daughter who also happened to be youth secretary ,missed church services because she was in the kitchen.....these are the small but hidden gendered division of labor

This isn’t about tradition—it’s about inequality dressed up as service. If service is a virtue, it should be shared. Otherwise, it’s just exploitation made respectable.

Another pattern I couldn’t ignore: if you are economically less privileged or don’t fit conventional beauty standards, there seems to be an unspoken expectation that you take on more undesirable. tasks..like cleaning or handling things others avoid ( murgi ka peth safa karna). It may sound minor, but these subtle hierarchies are very real.

This isn’t about tradition,it’s about inequality disguised as service. If service is truly a virtue, it should be shared. Otherwise, it risks becoming normalized exploitation.

I’ve previously studied and written about the double burden faced by female medical staff, which might be why I notice these patterns more closely now.

So the question is.....should we continue to ignore these everyday inequalities, or start examining them more critically for meaningful change?

Open to opinions, it will help me to understand things more. Thank you

and please don't mind my grammatical errors.
