That missing bit, ignored again and again, leads to a vacuum that nothing can or will fill. Draupadi, a woman who was denied childhood, sought love in the valor of the world's best archer, and the bit in her was crushed time and again—when she had to share her love, when she had to welcome another woman, and the culmination was when her mighty husbands became mute spectators to her public disrobement; no amount of valor on the battlefield could fill those missing bits, which, when denied, left a black hole full of sorrow and bitterness.
