The best thing that has happened in 2009 is legalizing of gay rights. Atleast now gays in India can live like their real selves in broad daylight without any stigma attached to them. This shows the broadening of minds of people in India. It also marks the beginning of a liberal and more tolerant India, India which can welcome change with open arms. And people against this legislation, saying they are protecting the culture had tied India in the shackles of backwardness since long. Now it’s high time that they realize that the culture of India is imbibed in the heart of every Indian. We are the ones who make our culture and follow it, and we’ll never let go of it. Tolerating every odd is also a part of India’s culture. And they are still not satisfied we shouldn’t care much. And being a libertarian, I’m very happy. Some day I hope to hear of men getting raped, as I’m tired hearing about women getting raped all the time and we not are being able to decrease the count.
P.S: Not very male friendly.
Hmmm..that makes sense. But the last couple of lines makes me wonder - you seriously wanna hear about it ?
ReplyDeleteWell,as for me,I guess we were classmates once upon a time. Can you recall me ?
oh yes of course i can recall you... and this article is written in sheer frustration plus I'm the impulsive kind so....
ReplyDeletewhere are you now? and how are you?
what are you doing? hey nice to hear from you.. ;)
I have a problem with the words "tolerating the odds". Homosexuals are not at all odds. They represent another aspect of the same society that we are a part of. The problem is we over-generalize ourselves as the normal/not-odds and exclude the others. The question is whether to interiorize the other or not. The opposing of the legislation is only the appearance of that essence which is founded on the logic of "tolerating" and not "understanding".
ReplyDeleteI was searching for you after the "born leader" event but couldn't find you out there.Needed to know about your idea of "politics".
I didn't mean gays as odds. I meant the legalization n all the issues surrounding it as the "odds". we need to change as a society.
ReplyDeleteAbout "politics", I'd love to be a politician someday..
you can be more specific if you want to ask something else relating to politics..
