Gender bias on DID - Page 2

So when Khushboo gets out it's ''BIAS AGAINST GIRLS ON DID!!! VETO POWER HAS TO BE USED!" and what's Vrushali, a guy? Why didn't Mithunda realise about this "BIAS AGAINST GENDER" when talented girl like Vrushali completed a HATTRICK of female elimination? I don't like this about girls getting eliminated constantly, but doesn't mean I'd use the veto on Khushboo OVER Vrushali! I seriously doubt if Mithun would have used it for Alisha, actually. Khushboo IS a great dancer, but NO WAY is she better than Bhavna or Vrushali. She DID NOT deserve veto power.

Girls should also realize that selling hot body is not the way to gain votes from the public. If girls think they can perform as good as boys, and they have the talent level same as boys, then stop stripping on national TV and show the powerful and strong side of women than the same stupid lame showing skin thing!! That's not how girls should try to achieve equality!!! Yes, guys come topless and show their muscles, so that doesnt mean girls have to show their assets to get equal treatment!! Else girls should also build muscles and appear as body builders on DID instead of being dancers!! The irony is that many top choreographers in the film industry in India (not just Bollywood alone) are women!!

Why is that the more women demand for equality, the more they strip?? So who's belittling or degrading women - it's women themselves!! So women need to wake up and face the challenge with confidence and power, rather than nagging and crying for being born as women - gender at birth is a done deal and there is no point in crying over it - just act and show your talent without selling sexy looks!! Just my two cents.

khusboo doesnt deserve the veto power..it should hav gone to either bhavna or vrushali ! its a stupid decision he made

guys it was unfortunate that veto power wasn't use for vrushali...but honestly im glad mithun da did it..i dont want another girl to leave! and rai baat khushboo's outfits...she is not picking them..she is being told to wear them by the costume designers....stop looking at oufits and look at dance!

It seems like India is going through a phase that has swept through most "free countries" at some point or the other, i.e.: promotion of positive discrimination.

This sudden focus on girls girls girls....everywhere, Indian Idol, Saregamapa...you name it. Has it crossed anyone's mind that maybe the guys in this particular case are actually better dancers (or entertainers or whatever wins the audience over) than the girls? From my point of view, besides Vrushali, none of the girls seem to be specifically better dancers than any of the guys...and the week Vrushali got out was the same week Sunita got the most votes, was it not?

This is ridiculous, forcing this brand of hyper-feminism on the voting population. I am a girl and I understand the importance of equal opportunities but I don't want to be selected or praised solely based on the fact that I am a girl. If chosen, it should be because I can match up or exceed anyone else, whether it is a boy or a girl, in terms of talent/skills.

It's amusing that the youngest person on the show was the only one who put it so clearly...as Prince said, this is not a competition between boys and girls. It is a competition between individuals, whether boys or girls.

It seems like humans can only swing between the two extremes, i.e.: discrimination or to counter that, the promotion of positive discrimination. Meritocracy is just for the books.

Honestly, I've always felt the boys have been stronger than the girls. In the solo rounds, I'm always impressed with the guys and often disappointed with the girls. BUT I do believe there are some girls that were voted off that are better than the current guys right now.

Answer to Gender Bias issue is to have a winner in Male & Female catagory....They should not be competing against each other be it in singing or dancing....

I do not think that Mithunda is against Virshali. His decision is based after four girls voted out in a row. If Virshali was in the present position ie so many girls voted out in a row then it would be Virshali that Mithunda will use his veto power.

Honestly, I don't think he would have used it for Vrushali if she was in the same position...I mean, unless she stripped and gyrated at his face, but that's not likely.
