There is a continuous trend / Obsession i Find / Observe in Indian Muslims at large;
1. They encourage their boys to marry Hindu girls.
2. They encourage their girls to marry Pakistani boys.
@jamahir
thanks for the tag, but i did not receive alert for your tag but came across your post while going through the thread.
i think in decades past, indian-girl/pakistani-boy muslim marriages used to be more occurring than now... the situation is not helped by renewed ( last ten years ) hostile-actions/fear-mongering by sanghis about pakistan, and when such marriages did occur earlier, i think it was more a western india and northern india phenomenon than from east and south, though maybe hyderabad in the south may have such marriages... i personally don't know of any female who has married into pakistan.
as for indian muslim boys marrying hindu girls, there is no encouragement as such by muslim families towards that, and instead when it happens it will be a love thing.
in earlier decades, it was not so unusual to find muslim boys marrying hindu girls or muslim girls marrying hindu boys... times have changed.
in truth, most indian muslim boys of today are not worth time of some hindu girl or christian girl ( with the possible exception of my humble self of course )... most indian muslim boys are quite crass, besides being poisoned by the tableeghis... this ( yt vid link -
17-year-old dies during street wrestling bout in Hyderabad - YouTube ) is example of how they spend their time typically... these particular ones neither will even think of marrying non-muslim girls nor will they have the courage to take their hindu bride and face their family or the typical ghetto atmosphere that recent indian muslims, especially in the south, build when they grow to a certain number in localities.
the second reason is to do with rise of the sangh which especially in the last ten years has violently opposed in many places friendship of muslim boys with hindu girls, let alone allowing their marriage to take place... most active among these sangh groups have "bajrang dal", "sri ram sena" and "hindu janajagruti samiti"... these do what in india is euphemistically called "moral policing"... terrorist activity, really... read the fears/delusions of the last group i mentioned (
Love Jihad - Hindu Janajagruti Samiti )... read about the fearful atmosphere "sri ram sena" has created in mangalore city ( the south )... these groups are acting against the human rights of hindu ladies to choose who they want to be.
there is exception in places kerala and bengal because of the enlightened socialism atmosphere there, and there are also exceptions in places like bombay, bangalore and delhi, but even there the couples find it difficult in the present social/political situation.
and i must say, i had a christian female colleague some years ago who married a muslim boy, and they were from a town i lived in years ago.
@Aminroop , what do you think, especially my description ( from male socialist muslim eyes ) of the typical modern indian muslim male youngster??
