Does no woman think that the protests are not classy?

Miss Ruth

Aren't the protest movements a slap on the face of men? I am not anti-men, but surey women would like it if men did the bashing and yelling for them? Or are they too proud to accept that?

Does no woman think that the protests are not so classy? Do they think that 'western women' are all street-fighters? Are they afraid to acknowledge that the sight of women tearing, fighting, yelling will leave not even a tiny mark on the psyche of rapists? 

Would it be bad to admit that women don't look good doing this? Is feminity on its way out of India? Or masculinity? Does nobody think of all this?

Dear Big Town-Indians, the world is bigger than you think

Kalki

Yes, there is the regional media that informs most of the people in the country. Then, the organisations and people you dislike are loved by these regional-dwelling, poor but actual-Indians. They don't really depend on you.

The city Indians like to talk of RSS and BJP as if the survival of these parties depends on the facebook status-updates of the 20 percent minority. That is, if they realise that they are the minority. Hundreds of email messages don't make the majority.

I don't think that women all over India will support the sudden sprout of feminism and underwear-activism. The media may try its best giving coverage to girls who flaunt middle fingers and bras at the rest of the country. The media may even succeed, but not so soon.

The problem lies in the mindset of thinking conservative women as oppressed. If a woman wears a sari, she must be sad. Unless the sari is worn on mondays and skirts on tuesdays. This is the stupid policy many modern-Indians are falling prey to. 

We are a conservative nation. And the protestors in smaller towns won't behave like the ones in Delhi. They won't show their middle finger or make banners stating that skirts are cool. No. Maybe they don't want to wear skirts. They like to listen to their elders. Maybe they will protest from 4-6 p.m. It is silly to see 'modern' Indians talk like they are the nations' leaders. It is the curse of facebook. It makes people seem bigger than they are. And facebook is up there with media outlets.

Delhi Rape and Feminism

Miss Ruth

There is a term for the brouhaha that has accompanied the gang-rape of the unfortunate Delhi girl. The term is prevalent in what Indians like to call the 'western society'. The term is feminazi-ism. 

While India celebrates this trend, it is already a failure in my place. So much so that many modern women are cursing the philosophy. While women need to be free and independent, they don't need man-hating movements that talk about punishing men and creating fear in young minds.

One of my fascinations with Hindu culture has been the place accorded to women within the masculine framework. But I realise that I am more serious than many of my Hindu friends and in a few months know more than all of them! So they are surprised to hear me speak about the ills of feminism. I surprise them further by asking them to just open the internet and broaden their knowledge-base!

I wonder if the poor girl who died was a feminist? I hope that the movement for womens' safety does not become a feminist movement. Look London!

Three Dangerous Indians of 2012

Kalki

These are Indians you can't learn from. They don't know India, they hate her, and they hate themselves. They exploit you and... let's just get on with them and finish this long-pending story. Do your own image search.

* Girish Karnad - Girish Karnad thinks that Indians don't read books. So he can get away with any nonsense he can spout. But wait, maybe you don't read?

As per Girish, us non-book-reading Indians are of two types: communal and secular. And to make sure he is in the limelight, he exploits that part of you; he asks you if you are a secular like him or a communal like a V S Naipaul.

As per Girish, nobel laureate Naipaul ... read it here.

Basically Naipaul is communal and non-secular. And because he is not fond of Muslim contribution to India, he doesn't know India.

Now, you, the readers, the Indians. If you have been brought up on school-books and NCERT nonsense, then you won't probably know Maharana Pratap but would sing praises of Akbar the Great. To you I say, rise, and read the Indian versions of texts. To understand how outdated the great playwright Karnad is, here is a christian foreigner on the issue. And please note that Vijayanagar stands as an important debate point for us Indians. Read it and find out what lies you have been fed till now. An exciting excerpt:

As is all too common in Nehruvian-secularist discourse, Dalrymple’s analysis of the role of Islam in India stands out by its superficiality. Whenever a Hindu temple or a Muslim festival is found to employ personnel belonging to the opposite religion, secular journalists go gaga and report on this victory of syncretism over religious orthodoxy. Secular historians including Dalrymple do likewise about religious cross-pollination in the past.

* MIM's Akbaruddin Owaisi - The terrorist. More dangerous than your Ajmal Kasab.

Owaisi and his supporters are a threat to Hindus and peace loving-Muslims. The problem with peace loving Muslims is that they won't come out publicly against him.

This man wants to finish of Hindus in India. He is a slap on democracy. And a slap on those Indians who still think Narendra Modi is a danger to India. A tight slap on your cowardly faces.

A tighter slap on media channels who won't cover this issue in detail for it is - indecent. And because such people should not be given publicity. Cowards.

Tomorrow if an RSS member sneezes, it would make front page news. And media would be thankful.

* Meena Kandasamy - She'd be very happy to be here. On any list. It's her dream to be abused. She is like a heroine. She want's the Nobel or something. If you search this website, you'd know that she is a feminist who can't identify the men in her life. Here's an excerpt from this article on The Young India, or rather read it entirely here.

Meena knows that Indians love drama and drama queens. And she is a a top-notch drama queen. The kinds who claim great suffering so as to get media attention. Watch out, she is the next Arundhati Roy in line. All the awards are hers.

Folks, there should be a list of great Indians as well. Soon. Till then, watch out and stay away from these 'apparent Indians'.
