This is What??

Orkut, the social networking site, has done something for many of us in the world what we probably thought was never possible. To keep in touch with people we haven't seen in a long time, or to meet strangers - that was something impossible in the "India Post" days, or for that matter, even e-mail days.

But there is one thing i absolutely hate to see on www.orkut.com - it maybe a personal opinion, i dont care, but there is this one thing that makes me laugh my arse off, and angry to the deepest of my heart at the same time. Let me not start with what i have noticed, but with what I feel is the total opposite of my understanding of "society".

Do we really respect women? Though I always thought that the Times of India was not very ideal as a news media, it didn't do too badly with local news. I read about eve-teasing, dowry harassment, and all kinds of nasty things done to women - which pisses me off - and I'm not trying to win an election with this speech anytime soon. Women are women and need to be treated respectfully. Here, we bloody live in a city where there are Kannada activists who "activate" against non-Kannada elements - and the same bloody people cant care a shit about the same women they read about in the Sanjay Vani - even if the women are Kannadigas violated by non-Kannadigas.

Even the Muslim society is a lot better off in this view - atleast they respect their women (here in India atleast). The burqa works for them. In this country - we have a sex ratio thats about 860 women for a 1000 men. Where are you going to get yourself brides you freaking jackasses? Oh right, you'll be cloning them from now? By the way, its illegal to be gay in India. And to think of why the population is like that, is so spine chilling, it makes u wanna strangle the sinister perpetrators, then run over their dead bodies with buses. Unborn girls are aborted and girl children are thrown into dustbins - this is in a country where there are NGO's pleading the govt not to kill dogs. Look at the children out there - you friggin animal lovers. I think the last girl who was attacked by dogs here in Bangalore (Bengaluru) was let out to the dogs on purpose. Maybe if the Muslim people did to the rest of India what they do to people violating Indian women, something would go into the heads of these no brainers.

Then there are the eveteasers. OH MY GOD. Do you get an orgasm when u whistle at that woman on the road? Does your family get food if you pinch that girl walking home from college? Does your God give you a ticket to heaven if you felt up that lady in the bus? WTF? I tell you, these things that you do, maybe something that wont get into your heads right now - but wait till that day when they do that to your daughter - oh wait a minute - you aborted her didn't you?

All this for just an observation I made on Orkut. Okay, now I laugh again with that bit of anger boiling up inside. This may not be as sinister as what I have blatantly described just a moment ago, but is a hidden quality that many "males" have, that is also the same point I try to prove - that people don't know how to respect women anymore. Here is the start of my observation.

Please notice girls' / womens' / females' profiles scrapbooks. You notice things like

- Hi.. will u be ma friend?? or
Hi ! ... Can we know each other as Friends ?
or
hiiiiiiiiii.........

can i ve a pleasure to v eu in my frnd list... or
(I feel the best of all) Hey.. Was going through ur profile, found it interesting, so am writing to u..... As a normal routine, I know u must be tired of people saying,"hiii there, u r cute, u r pretty, i like ur smile,i like ur eyes....... and stuff"......and i can imagine how irritating it can be when someone out
of know where jumps up and says....... "DO u wanna be my friend, or can i be ur friend" and u feel like, Man DO i KNow u ..........Hence i would definately not do the same, neither would i ask u to be my friend...All i shall say is, "WHy dont we start a conversation and
let friendship develop on its on....." Hope u would

I pulled this off of a friend's profile, from two pages of scraps (thats 20 scraps, so about 20% of it is filled with shit like this). See how i say "friend's" profile. The word is singular - so imagine how many women / girls are being treated this way. (though the funny thing is sometimes i come across this on my own profile too). Half the people are just oblivious to all of this. What a waste.

So this was what I noticed and then all this other miscellaneous stuff started flooding my brain. How jobless. But a point I really feel strongly on. And a kind request to all reading - respect women, for you are otherwise worth lesser than a quark. This has probably been my most thought-less provoking subject, but a matter of great deal of controversy, and I dont fackin care. Plus, I am not driven against any society, culture, or any such thing that could cross your mind.

Till my next post, tata. hog malkollu. tumbaa odhidre naale hudugigella sariyaagi nodakagalla neevella. rofl.

A new song a new song!! Incomplete, but still fun to publish. And actually describes exactly what I wanted to write about once, and since its in this format, let me not strain my fingers typing a full essay about it (carpal tunnel syndrome?! :-o )..


I think I'm gonna call it All Hail..

You hear those bells around and,
and you bend down in prayer.
You know he's around and so,
you ask in fear -
For something you know you can't do on your own -
so you turn to him..

John likes to call him hope,
and Anita calls him faith,
The rest of em call him God,
some don't care anyway,
Whatever he is - he maybe just a state of mind
but he's right in here.


All Hail, All Hail, he's right in here.
All Hail, All Hail, you just don't know it yet.
Its right in front of you, open your eyes
All Hail, All Hail.




Thats it.. i did mention that it was incomplete..
