Civilized huh????




What does being civilized mean???
Hmm.. well... having good manners???... eating using a fork n knife.. instead of hands..?? using toilet paper instead of water to wash away ur shit??... Being onboard social networking sites???... Blogging???!!!.. Having a wardrobe with appropriate dress for every occassion????!!!!
what??!!

Well... if I juxtapose a civilized person ( so called!!) n an uncivilized person (agn so called!)... i guess.. the above mentioned criterions will be some of the factors on which we will be differentiating between the two!!!

BUh!! are we doin the right thing????

I am in a state of loss of senses from yesterday!
I came across a face of our society.., (When I talk abt our society.. I mean the so called civilized society.. a part of which I am!!!).. a face which is camouflaged behind the I-am-a civilized person pseudoface!!
We have seen this numerous time in hindi flicks.. released 2 decades back.. portraying the gaonwallahs, criticising a lady.. calling her names.. bhootni.. chudail.. etc etc!!
U may laugh off this now...
BUh... this is wat happened to a lady here yesterday!!
A person known to my family..!!
The people of the cooperative society.. staged a demonstration.. asking the family to evacuate the house..!!
A cooperative society.. in Surat "the fastest growing city of the world"!!!
Reason: The lady, a widow, had white scars and burn marks on her face!!
They say.. shez a ghost.. n their children are afraid of her!!
Bull shit!!!
hard to digest.. hai naa??!!
Donno... what should I call this!!
donno.. why people still do this!!
child marriage, female foeticide, exploitation of women at home n work, ... n pata ni kya kya!!!
a popular TV daily "Balika Vadhu" is watched by every single housewife in our country today (approximately!)!!
Buh... Have they put in spirit.. a single thing tht is portrayed in the serial..!!
It showed the myths related to menstrual flow in a girl... n criticized it heavily..!! Buh still this is a ubiquitous entity around India!!..
It showed tht how girl child is not allowed to go for higher studies.. and is married off at a tender age..!! Buh still this thing is seen everywhr...!!!
They say " gender equality"!!!.. Buh then in Indian Society.. thrz always a limit for a girl child??? why???
Okay!! I agree.. the society has evolved!!! BUh the people havent!!
Change begins with an individual...!!
untill n unless an individual changes his/her mental state... the women in our country.. will be exploited.. !!!
Wake up guys!!
India need to change!!! You need to change!!!!
