Isn't this also somewhat related to that narrow mindedness thingy?😆
however yeah, we are still very conservative in such matters !
If you say the word sex even for gender, i am sure you 'd be looked upon with glaring eyes as if you are an alien creature belonging to some other planet not deemed to live here😆
Talking about girl walking hand in hand with a boy being bad, well its not bad but what exactly are the intentions? 😆. i guess what you are trying to imply is they might just be friends, (and people might be making a mountain of a molehill,) but friends don't exactly walk hand in hand na?😆
(am i sounding like an extremist?😳 )

LOLLLL Oh yes it is related to narrow mindedness but somehow i think we give it lot more importance by making it a word that should always be in a closet.however yeah, we are still very conservative in such matters !If you say the word sex even for gender, i am sure you 'd be looked upon with glaring eyes as if you are an alien creature belonging to some other planet not deemed to live here😆
See thats what makes me feel like why is this so taboo... Its something that i have wondered lot of times and have never come up with a good answer...so hoping some one else has a good answer that makes sense.Talking about girl walking hand in hand with a boy being bad, well its not bad but what exactly are the intentions? 😆. i guess what you are trying to imply is they might just be friends, (and people might be making a mountain of a molehill,) but friends don't exactly walk hand in hand na?😆Well they could be just friends or be a GF/BF but why should we care - let them walk hand in hand if they so wish. Why do we stare or make them feel as if it is so wrong? I know people who feel awkard holding hands...(am i sounding like an extremist?😳 )
ROLFFFF there are so many - whats one more right?? No not really extremist.... but still the question does not get answered...Let me give you an example from my life...when I was in school I went out with a guy who lived in the same building as me - we were close friends in fact still are. Our parents were and are friends... well anyway to come back we went to an English movie - the only reason only the two of us went was that none of the others in our friends group were interested in watching the movie. Well anyway few days later the guy's sister is told by someone she works with.. see see i saw your brother with a girl going to watch an English movie.. and this raised a hue and cry in the family.. the parents and his elder sister wondered, then we all got to know and we all wondered.. it went on for a couple of days and we realized it was the two of us whom the guy saw... and we were like what?so my question is Why? why did this disrupt various lives and become into this huge deal which was discussed for multiple days?? was it worth discussing??
Ahh ! These are exactly the kind of situations which make you feel helpless because you know you were not wrong but you can't ever explain to the other side that because they are not open minded enough. Simply said, you can just try to make your point in such situations and if you 'd have a clean record so far (as in you have always been considered decent) , people would eventually understand after some initial hiccups.
It is obviously not correct on the part of others to make such a hue and cry out of the matter , but if we try to understand where they are coming from , it would make more sense.
However, if one knows that people around them would respond to such matters so gravely then why take the risk of going to a movie with the opposite gender first of all without telling anyone? I mean you should have informed your parents before going no? That would have made more sense i guess.

I think its all to do with the culture and mindset in which the people have been brought up and accustomed to. As of now, the usage of word "sex", even appropriately, if used openly is bound to catch attention in an unwanted way simply because it is something people are not accustomed to. However, with more exposure, the society is becoming more tolerant .Yes good point - i think in the future as more and more people are exposed and are ok with its mention society becomes more tolerant.oh you meant it in that way !obviously, yeah, its wrong to stare at them that ways. Its their life ! But when something is uncommon , its bound to attract attention no? Personally speaking, i have seen such things around me and i don't really care. I might not like to do it but it doesn't give me the right to come to the conclusion that whoever does it is wrong .😊At the same time they shouldn't cross limits in public too ! I am all for self control , at least in public, if you know what i mean😆LOLLLL Oh yes Self control is needed - I don't want to see public demonstrations myself, but simple things are sometimes very spur of the moment and if they are made into a big deal, then i think we are censoring that couple. Should we be doing that? Is a hug or holding hands in public inappropriate? what about a kiss on the cheek?Ahh !

Oh the funny part was our parents also knew that we were going for the movie and we had their permission - its just that none of us considered us as the boy and girl who were seen but we were talked about this way. This became a conversation point for so many people was what i didn't like. ... Now that i think back on it it seems silly that it took much thinking time.. but at that point it seemed like a big deal that i was talked about that way..... by random strangers... Why do these strangers even care? Should they.. sometimes i think its good because that is also the beauty of the Indian society that you get to know where your kid is and what they are doing that easily... but for the kid isn't it very hard?
