In a get together the other day, the topic about increase in divorce rate came up and some wise men in the group said
divorce happens only in cases where the girl goes to work or in other words has more exposure. If the girl is stay at home with less exposure and financially depending on the better?-half then divorce is not an option at all.
I wanted to give a peace of my mind but chose not to for various reasons!
Yeah I agree with you wise men, its not an option as she is already a slave from your eyes and who gives the liberty to slaves to have a choice? Isn’t she supposed to abide by the rules of the master?
Aren’t this generation ladies (esp. the working ones) are stereo-typed as “ladies with more exposure and spoilt”? So, whatever these ladies try to express are meaningless or luxurious.
The major issue with current generation (the current refers to late 20s, 30s and 40s) is men are happy with the way they were pampered in yesteryears and refuse to move forward while women have already moved forward 20 years ahead!
Now, how can these two make a happy family and raise kids with common values of life? I wonder forever!!
Thanks for the fodder, Maya. She has beautifully penned it down in this post.
I cant keep my cool if I happen to hear such stuff even on television. As you said, there is no point in taking to mindless idiots who think women should stay as slaves forever.
That’s exactly why I didn’t argue. All my words would have only gone to deaf ears!
Jeez, people live in the 12th century or what!
I see many guys like this RM.. living with so much ego!! Sighh!!!
Wise and otherwise!! And these men are otherwise..
you nailed it! these are otherwise men!
And, this is in the US with the educated westernized desis and all! Think about people’s mentality in the remote villages.. It will take eons for us to move forward, Ani! Eons, really!
I don’t think this mindset has anything to do with education Maya! actually the more educated, the more sillarai people become!
I have seen forward thinking people in my village. I believe it has to come from the roots and values of the upbringing family.
Our children’s ethics about life will be a reflection of our own life!
I am happy to be exposed and independent.. 🙂
well said am!
Argg.. I have to take care of my boiling blood pressure!
seriously! Its very difficult to digest these talks!
Is he really educated??
Bingo, read my reply to Maya’s comments. I really don’t know if education teaches these values. It has to come from the upbringing family I believe!
Sigh! 😦
I did the same upon hearing it! Sigh!!
I have seen such desi guys. Though they have traveled seven seas they are still not ready to give respect to women and treat them equally .
I believe it has to be taught as part of the upbringing LF!! Education or Knowledge has nothing to do with this..
seeing such men everyday.. simply irritated with them.. I do not even want to spend energy talking with them..
but at certain situation we cannot avoid them too..
