You should e-mail a proposal to the Ministry of Tourism in India - a PPT would be helpful. For models you could use willing Pathans in Pakistan - you will find them aplenty. It could be a new chapter in India-Pakistan - Aman ki Asha relationship.

I think I now know why Indian govt has so many consulates in Afghanistan and wants to get in there

Why are you not proud of this??

You see, mate, we have so many achievements that if we started taking pride in them, we'd not get time to do anything else.

For us, being ahead of the times is a cultural thing. It's in our blood, so we don't feel it.

Like they say, some men don't have to try too hard.

It'd be like Sachin Tendulkar shouting about his hundreds form the rooftops. It's just not required.

It's called being humble. It's a winners' thing, you won't understand.

It's 'embarassment to ancestors.'

Next time, try making a personal attack that would make sense in English.

Ciao.

I'm sorry, mate, but my English isn't good enough for me to make sense of that.

Official gay-bashing
Official gay-bashing

On Thursday, the UPA government took the same large step backward it had taken in 2009 while arguing its case on homosexuality in the Delhi high court: that the sexual act between men and between women is immoral and that it transmits diseases like AIDS.

While the government distinguished itself for its hostility toward same sex freedoms and rights, the conservative religious right posited a different kind of homophobia -- that being homosexual, lesbian, transgendered or transsexual is against Indian culture and against the natural order of human relationships. While the 2009 order of the Delhi high court decriminalised homosexuality, it still isn’t easy being gay almost anywhere in India. Homophobia has become a new kind of bigotry, espoused not just by the religious right but -- now -- even the government which, on Thursday, switched positions from displaying deep antipathy to taking no stand at all over a frought issue.

For a government, which otherwise professes liberalism on economics and a range of other fundamental rights, to take a retrograde position on homosexuality as immoral is entwined with the belief that it would destroy the so-called social and moral order.

The health ministry and, indeed, the health minister, Ghulam Nabi Azad’s characterisation last year that homosexuality is “completely unnatural” was not just an uninformed comment, but an expression of official stigmatisation of and discrimination against a certain kind of sexual orientation that has much to do with individual choice. There is no conclusive scientific evidence to suggest that being gay has a determinitive genetic quirk or is a deviation from so-called normal sexual behaviour caused by some chromosomal twist.

Homosexuality may or may not be an immutable matter of biology, but the official resurrection of gay-bashing is just another example of the government’s poor record of how it has treated and continues to treat the country’s sexual minorities, including those who identify themselves as gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgendered. This country’s laws safeguard the rights of religious minorities and protect their rights.

For consenting adults, regardless of their gender, the right to like and love someone and express that desire for another person, even if that person is of the same gender, through sex is surely as vital to the right to life, liberty and freedom. There shouldn’t be trampling of the rights of those who exercise the choice to be ‘different.’

You see I think this is relevant. On the one hand claiming secularism and human rights is one think the practice seems very different

Thank you pops. That was an interesting observation. It seems some Indian forum members beg to be different

Thread's become a farce. What a shame.

And you are surprised? I saw the guy who started the thread and his summary on top of his post and knew this had flame-bait written all over it. Pity he's a member and stooping to such low levels. But he will receive it all back in kind.

suit yourself. my post is fine and if you feel it offensive, it's because CaptainJackSparrow's red letter light your eyes, which are shining in red, sir.

I'm sorry, mate, but my English isn't good enough for me to make sense of that.

don't be a bean-counter, be a brave man, if not gay, or iron lady in english grammar class.

 

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Why are you saying rude things and then deleting. You have been reported

Because I have had an education and probably a better one than most in the part of the world I dwell in, have had.

Because I can judge when I do things I should not have done.

Like I said, it's got to do with one being a better judge of oneself. It's about being a more evolved and mature human being.

It's a winners thing. You won't understand, my dear.
