I Leave or You!

-
There was this Supreme Court verdict about women separating men from their family and the feminists had something to frown upon!
So there are a few points I would hence propound and you are free to consider my audacity as mean and illogical!
1) When a girl leaves her family after marriage, more often than not they are so excited about starting their new life that the thought that they would be leaving the family does not come to their minds- which implies that it is an act done of one's own volition.
2) Further to point 1, had it been the case that the girl was forced to leave her home by the groom or his family, it would have been equivalent to abduction or forceful restrain which is punishable by law.
3) The case in specific over which the honourable Supreme Court has passed the verdict is for a situation encompassing coercing the spouse to either render the parents homeless or leave them to fend for their own- which is not justifiable even on humanitarian grounds.
4)Understandably the tradition defines the act of the girl leaving her parent's house and move to the in-laws' but the same has not been questioned yet. I think that if need be (considering all the uproar that has been caused), the same can be challenged or an otherwise situation of the guy moving in with the girl be discussed between the two parties. This would definitely require some revolution to happen but if we are not comfortable with the verdict in question, then let there be one!
Thanks!
PS: In this modern world, how many of us are even living with our parents anymore! I left my hometown way back in 2008 and when I get married, I will move on to a different place which most probably would not be my in-law's place because my "would be" would also be living somewhere else. Why are we unnecessarily taking offence then!
Had it been for those poor ladies against whom this verdict has a possibility of getting mis-used, the hue and cry would have been justifiable but for us who already are in a different zone- it is nothing but a mockery of the believes we allege to stand for!
(Confused Genius has said it all under PS! Read that only as the epilogue.)

    Salutos to the brevity. The PS part was good - most relevant part I think, for people reading this. ☺

The Complaint Syndrome

-
A writer's block can be one of the most frustrating things for someone who keeps writing. I have been experiencing one for some days now. Have already tried to draft more than 10 blogs but have ended up in deleting them midway. Oh, am actually complaining now! Well, whats so special about it because this is what we all generally do. Complain ! We are perfectionist at that. You give us a situation and we will find a fault with it. You will not be able to even delve into the depths from where we will emerge with a sense of achievement, oh yes we just found it! But don't you worry, you are like us only; you will find faults too. You don't really have to look around to complain, they are as easy and obvious as some that I have listed below: 1) Why couldn't I get up early, darn this "alarm" : C'mon, whats wrong with the alarm  here 2) God! why is this watch running so fast : Seriously ? 3) People like him/her spoil it all by being punctual always :

Confessions of a NOT-HOT Girl!

-
Image
We usually keep reading about boys being friend-zoned and how girls play with their feeling- intentionally or unintentionally. Then there are jokes about bad guys getting all the good girls and good guys remaining forever alone. Then the long sentimental messages about how a beautiful girl rejected someone's proposal and how the guy kept portraying her beauty all throughout his life. Another in the series are the images where true love shows two perfect looking models hugging and coochee-cooing with each other. Then there comes the so on and the so forth! In all these, we usually forget to mention the girl who is simple, not really hot (say not hot at all), maybe not very beautiful  (maybe she is but not all made up) too, who is always by your side and hence forms a part of your gang. She, is a bit tomboyish sometimes and sometimes she is just not too girly or high on attitude. Sometimes she is sweet, most of the times she is normal and sometimes she is super mad too. Sometimes

In Your Face!- The Friend Checklist

Dear All, It has been like more than my usual posting time since I last posted in September. This was unusually bad of me to have neglected this particular blog since it was the first one I ever had and it did and still continues to provide me the maximum audience I have. So, that makes me look really bad to myself because that is not how it should be. And so, my sincere apologies to "And so I thought and said". Anyway, so you all must have had a lot of friends, like minimum 10 of them and that is really really good for you because you should have a lot of people to hang out with. Yes! I just said that and I know it is mean but the reasons I can explain pretty well. You see, how do you define friends?  Someone with whom you can share everything you want to and you know you will not be judged. Your friend is someone who stand by you through thick and thin and do blah blah things for you. So positive na! Such beautiful way of defining friendship  which is actually anot
