Bhola Bear...I would like to know and educate myself here on this post that from where and how you gathered all this information written about DELHI!!!!!?? Would you please give us all the evidence/links that in Delhi these female sexual exploitation is on the rise?? And then you also go on adding that in rural areas as well....ARE YOU SUGGESTING DELHI COMES IN BEING a rural area??? Clarify yourself and elaborate on your statement if you may please??😲😲
Now in the second highlighted line do you in your little knowledge think and truly believe that slapping a person solves everything and you win your argument and no harm is done???😕😕
SaNiCo,
No offense meant, dear. Let me explain myself on the 2 points you required clarification:
1. Delhi and rural areas: No, I am not classifying Delhi as a rural area, first. Secondly, I have heard so many stories from my relatives living in Delhi, that it is dangerous for girls to be travellling alone in buses, at night, etc. etc. Also, eve-teasing is commonly recognised as an issue in Delhi, even channels like NDTV have reported on it. Remember stories about rapes, acid throwing on girls, etc. 🤢Have not the time to find and post links for you now, will do so later.
As for the rural areas, how many reports are there of girls being abused, even last night, there was a tweet from a friend i know, whose living in a small town near Salem in Tamil Nadu. Her maid's brother had a girl child born, and she was saying how her brother was sad that it was a girl, and this inspite of him having one son also. So see the state of some parts of India.
Don't mistake me, I am as patriotic as any Indian - my husband (non-Indian) will be the first one to tell you. 😆
2. Giving a slap - it was a metaphorical one, carried away by my frustration at seeing this girl in such an innocent state. I simply cannot believe that there is a girl who is sooooo innocent, what with the profusion of serials on Satellite and DD also. So what I was trying to say is just to shake some sense of living in the 21st century into this girl. 😡 That's all.
Sorry if I hurt your feelings, but come on, so many times we have said we want to kill Ammaji / bash up Mrin/ Abhay even, etc, and no hard feelings on anyone in this forum.

So hope you understand my POV.
Look forward to your response.
