Well, thanks for letting me know that. I know what I was getting myself into when I wrote that story. Yes, it is difficult to palate a guy accepting a 'fallen woman' snd her baby unconditionally whereas it is not too difficult to accept a woman accepting a 'man of the world'. But I myself have heard of such men although they may be few and far between. So I dont think I went wrong in choosing that theme. For me true love goes beyond all boundaries, whether for a man or a woman. Not many may find that sort of love but belssed are they who do. I wanted to write a heart warming tale of a man and his love for two women/girls. And that is what I did. So no regrets whatsoever.
As to readers taking a personal jab at me, well there were some who did just that whereas there were others who argued out the points rationally. Some comments were so vicious, it made me cringe. I am open to debate but not hitting below the belt which some did. Yes, I do lack imagination and ability to surprise and my plots may be archaic, mundane and most of the times 'out of the world'. My heroes may be 'goody-two-shoes' with no pasts and my heriones may be soiled unlike the other way around which is more acceptable, I guess. But then that was the purpose of that fic, to make a radical departure from the usual stuff.
But then I am not here to revolutionalise the way people think. They are free to hold their own opinions. I just wanted to tell a story which was close to my heart for a long time. I used my favourite jodi to tell it.
