[quote="joe"][quote="Punnaimaran"]இந்தியாவை மனதில் வைத்துத் தான் என்னுடைய கருத்துக்கள். மேலை நாடுகள் அளவிற்கு சமுதாய விழிப்புணர்ச்சி நம்மிடம் இன்னும் வளரவில்லை என்பது என் எண்ணம்.Quote:

What if I feel "hurt" by moral outrage ? :lol2:Quote:

Apart from physical hurt, causing psychological trauma (eg. threats, ) is a punishable offence - we'd be ready agree with that.
What about 'public decency' - that ever changing cultural thing where standards are progressively 'lowered'. How would one react ? The streaker is a regular in these arguments - and I am surprised he hasn't made an appearance thus far. :-)
And this is my favourite: what about "Hurting religious sentiments" - there we may get slightly cat-on-the-wall. Responses will range from "it's a free country, grow some skin" to "தவிர்த்திருக்கலாம்", "வருத்தத்துக்குரியது" to "கண்டனத்துக்குரியது".
In many places the charges center around 'likely to incite violence'. Note: this is not necessarily linked to actual acts of violence, but presumption that it may lead to. That means the incitability of the people is also taken into account, isn't it ?!
So as people become more balanced (or 'permissive' based on how one sees it !) previous offences no longer are offences ! Rather than being set in stone on these issues, the law changes - which can be understandably unsettling. We law as the cornerstone with reference to which society operates but in many cases there is a feedback loop.
"தவிர்த்திருக்கலாம்"

Well said. First we should prepare the young minds, so that they can decide level-headedly in such issues. Unfortunately in India, we have still a looong way to go.
ஐயா! நானும் இதே கலாச்சார நாட்டுல இருந்து தான் வர்றேன் ..அத நெனச்சு பெருமைப்பட முடியல்ல ..அது கிண்டல் இல்ல .ஆத்திரம் ..அவமானம் ..சும்மா கலாச்சாரம் -ன்னு பேப்பர்-ல எழுதி வச்சுகிட்டா போதுமா ? வீதிகளில் எங்கிருக்கு கலாச்சாரம் ? :huh:Quote:

It IS shocking and saddening to me to see women wanting male attention! whoever talked about 'piRar manai nOkkaamai' and 'sEl akaRRiya maathar' must be turning in their graves!
The reversal of gender roles do definitely disturb me. Home is the domain of the woman is my strong belief. Like in the quote, 'God is in his heaven and all is well with the world' when woman is in in the home all is well with the world.
Thanks for educating me: after same sex marriage what could follow is marriage with robots! :lol:

Our youth are averse to lifelong commitments is the fact. Marriage comes with the tagline, 'until death doth part us' whereas living together has for tagline, 'until another interesting partner doth part us'! :lol:Quote:
