HI Guys, Hope every one is doing well!
I took a sabbatical from the forums and our krpkab but very happy to return now to my favorite land!
I had to catch up with all the missing episodes and thought to share my views on some topics.. I know it's a little late specially on the topic I'm going to write but I don't want to regret later for not expressing or sharing my views with my intellectual friends here.
It is about the live in relationship.
Honestly! I'm not for or against it, however I have my concerns on how it's going to explode in a wrong way in the society.
Meaning, this culture has started first in the Bollywood. Anything which has a starting point in bollywood travels at a speed greater than light. It becomes a culture or norm in the society.
The live in relationship has already gone viral in urban cities and now the new trend is deliver babies with a donor egg. Where is the concept of divine motherhood and family values? Tech can defy the nature but no nobody can replace the mother for a child. What ever the reason may be whether to contain properties within the house or due to issues with sexual orientation but my worry is that it will become a mainstream norm. Right now with in a year two celebrities that we know, already became fathers and soon this may become a fashion trend in coming few years.
That means u can have kids with out a partner and one could argue that this will provide the child a peaceful home with no partner and no breakups.
According to some Bollywood makers "Quobool hai", "Saath Phere" and "I DO" is just a fantasy and illogical.
Our show has also defended live in relationships and supported it very well(Smartly!!!). Normally our makers are neutral with controversial topics with a 50 50 take, but in this topic they took a lead of 70%.
Would that mean we need to be non judgmental and support live in relationships? Are they saying it works out better than a marriage?
I support divorces in cases where there is a huge turmoil in the relationship. In those cases atleast girl will have family support. But, where as, in live in relationship, if the boy and a girl separate there is not even support from the families. It is further worse, if the girl is pregnant with that boy, as our society is still not completely made for that scenario.
Firstly she need to prove to the society that the baby she's carrying belongs to her living partner. In some cases I heard they even get DNA tested to prove to the boys family. In most cases there is no financial support to the baby as it still consider illicit relationship according to our society.
It's unfortunate but believe it or not that's the naked truth.
Any which way you look at the live in relationship is a win win situation for a man. He can walk out of a live in relationship guilt free, go bride hunting for a virgin, like nothing ever happened in his life. The woman however has a label of being in a illicit relationship and often settles for less in a new relationship or marriage.
Also, more to share on some other topics as well... but will catch up slowly... :-)
