Even in her case, it was "enticement" not "adultery." Some bored lawyer must have looked up the archaic law. :lol: Anyway as you are aware the case just fizzled out and there were talks of repealiing this colonial law.
an old joke: childhood is not as enjoyable for a child as adultery is for an adult. :lol2:
* khabar baik is malay for I am fine (in response to AR's query)
Again you are going like "Potham Pothuvaga"Quote:

oops.. please replace culture with indian culture.
In conclusion, what this world needs is not more laws and constant judging, but love, compassion and understanding.
Culture is not static and is always changing. What was common for our ancestors, say a thousand years ago, are no longer common for us today.Quote:

Culture means many different things to different people: the clothing, the food, the values, the laws, the beliefs, the music and dance, the material things, the language, the art, the medicine or healing practices, the shared history, the kinship system (whom you consider to be family), the stories, the hairstyles, the economic system, and much more, of a group of people. Families, neighborhoods, ethnic groups (groups of' people from the same part of the world), religious groups, regions, countries, all have their own cultures. Culture is constantly changing as people and places change.
Honestly and respectfully PP mam, I really don't understand the inherent need to be so judgemental.Quote:

Just playing Devil's Advocate here..."harm" is not as obvious to define as we think :-)Quote:
