mi·sog·y·ny

noun
dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women.

Now, how many of you have seen ads where a guy is treated as a bumbling idiot? Would that be construed as misandry ?

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017

Gus, by the same token, if the government does take up the core issues, there will be no negativity from RW and hence, no Sonia/congress.

If RW folks cannot talk about issues dear to them, then where exactly can they?

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017

Let me propose a couple of options for temple management: 1) No taxes to be paid by temples. None. 2) All benefits, loans, leases should go to verifiable Hindu orgs and Hindu individuals and should not be transferable. 3) Every year, a certain % of donations must be spent on temples and improvements...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017

Syam, where do you think the work force is going to come from? I'm all for Vikas. That will ensure the neutral folks to vote BJP. However, some things also have to be done for the Hindus. Something. Anything. Hari, John et al are not asking for the moon. One or two doable items will go a long way. T...

Re: Love & Marriage Nukkad - 01

The propaganda starts at a very early age. There is kids cartoon program called peppa-pig. In this they depict the daddy pig as a bumbling idiot and mommy pig is perfect. New York City spent 60k on a survey to observe what they call 'man spreading' i.e does a man spread his legs and occupy more spac...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017

Geeth/Gus, I'll post references for the numbers later today. From what I have seen of this government in the last 3 years, one can question/debate policies. But, questioning the morality and ethics of the top leadership is absurd. This is India and we haven't heard one word of corruption in high pla...

Re: The Great Indian Political Drama - Oct 2017

Why do you think no modi minister talks about employment figures? That number is entirely negative. ^^ Doesn't your statement indicate that they are not lying about the numbers and ones quoted are true. If they were fudging the numbers, then they could have done so with employment numbers too. Coul...

And most black money wealth have black wealth in gold, land and maurirtitious bank, and all were untouched. (No - cash dealing in land is UNEFFECTED by demo). So, you agree that people without black mo...

Re: Moderator Nominations

I have offered to moderate. But before we nominate and assign roles, please create a simple list of things folks are NOT supposed to do.

In the political thread, I listed a few rules. That could be a start.
