Don't mix values with dogma. Stoning and calling women witches were highly dogmatic behaviors. They were NOT values.
Values didn't change, but our behavior and sense of punishment changed. That's why we don't punish people or stone them when they have premarital sex. I appreciate the sense of freedom now. But that doesn't mean premarital sex is appreciated!
Again, think about Khushi's values! People still love to be in a religious world where there are some restrictions in sexual behavior!
My friend values are and have always been societal construct, created by the dominant to dominate the others. the examples I cited has instances from all over the world, India as well. And when values change, even slightly, the earlier version is called dogma, but in the essence they remain the same. If our society is still not ready to accept a child who is born out of a wedlock then it in itself is a punishment for lifetime. Sex for me is wrong only when it is forced or done through manipulations and that m sure was never a case with ASR, consensual sex is acceptable as far as my personal opinion is concerned.
PS: Do u see the irony in the reded statement😆
Anyways we r all entitled to hold to our opinions and I believe consensual sex that Arnav had with Sheetal or anyone B4 marriage is completely justified and cannot be counted as infidelity towards khushi , especially knowing that he didn't believe in either love or marriage and still had a girlfriend, what did he want la for then if he had decided to remain celibate throughout his life.
