  4. Sethuraj Nair says

    :-)) Good one. A fair argument is possible only when both of us would like to draw close to the truth and not when we want to insult each other. Never mind. But before signing off please let me hear YOUR definition Theory of Relativity.

    Pardon couple of typos in there ;-)

  6. Sethuraj Nair says

    Collective Subconscious(Unconscious) is note my coinage, but Carl Jung’s. There are enough materials available on the web if you care to have a look. It predates our sense of individuality, and is a repository of all the existential, spiritual, cultural and civilizational symbols and experiences. That apart, I have no doubt in my mind that we make choices in our lives and our deeds and lived are driven by them. But where did these choices spring up? They are here not out of the blue, and anyone who knows behavioral psychology would tell us how deeply we have been influenced by factors that are entirely agnostic to our immediate senses. A choice are not that maiden speck at the time of big-bang- it’s so corny - just one of those gamut of alternatives that are flipped at us by all that we are constituted with and all that surround us. We own that choice only as much as we own the air we breathe. There is nothing nihilistic about admitting it ; we should know us better to love us better.

    Thanks for the comment. I can’t disagree more with the first assertion of it, though - that’s precisely what I was trying to disprove. You don’t live a life you choose (neither do I) - you live a life your collective subconscious, your social-histopolitical-demographic-cultural spatiality in tandem with your genealogy have chosen for you - however vehemently our swellhead self try to brush that under the carpet. These factors are so immensely subtle and latent but hard-wired and intrinsic, that their presence can hardly ever be felt by our skin-deep yardsticks.( Sadly, we have very limited control over any of them. )The point is, human-being is never discrete and nothing whatever he does or acts can be addressed in isolation. One can only be a great humanist when he appreciates this multi-dimensionality of his creed. Would be great if you let me recommend you a more focused reading of the post and be more precise in decrying the points made in there. Thanks a lot again !

    yes, u r right. anyhow there was violence, and if that happened for the right cause, then those killed would be martyres. but partition produced murderers on both sides.

  19. angel a says

    Thanks for meaningful discussion! rgds

  20. angel a says

    The purpose was not to attach the monitory value to the household chores, it was a question of self image when even donig so much work women say they do nothing and if you ask men what do their wives do, they would say nothing if they are not worknig outside. Secondly, all work that has monitory value is done by men be it tailor, chef etc but the same work when women do have no value.. by doing this, please understand i am not in any way undermining the value of running a family and managing a home. SC, the post is just about the attitudes and systems of the society, prejudices, biases and discriminitions. And BTW, about limiting the role of women to household prevents them from access to opportunities. This is also a fact.

  21. angel a says

    The source is a hospital report, some national statistics, my own experiences and my own study.. . where did you see probs in source? And if one studies national statistics on sex ratio, access to education health care, MMR and IMR, it becomes all the more clear. It is evidence based post and not biased from any point of view. .. Secondly, I never said that for women to “act” like men is freedom… They (and also people from maginalized and vulnerable groups) should have equal access to all the resources, knowledge and opportunities. thats all.

  22. angel a says

    Pl read the entire blog carefully and then comment. It does not say all women are being discriminated and men are responsible. Secondly as for the condition of women is concerned, you better check the statistics, improve your knowledge base, it would then be easier for you to understand the meaning behind.. Thanks any ways!

  23. Kumar Rahul says

    check my yesterday’s post for a surprise.

  24. Prudent Indian says

  26. bronzegoddess bright says

  27. anasua chatterjee says
