AEP: Threat to Indian Culture

F****g hypocrites we are. Once in a while there are initiatives like Adolescence Education Program, which aims to just provide knowledge to adolescents about themselves, about stuff which they might find difficult to ask at home, stuff they need to know.
And what happens. Governments of 8 (or maybe more) states ban the program (education is under the state govt.) calling it "Sex Education" and one chief minister even goes on to say that rather than this, we shld teach our children about our culture, yoga etc.

What culture are we so proud of yaar? Wat is our culture? If we say Sex is not part of our culture, then first of all go and destroy the Temples of Khajuraho. Kamasutra was written in India. And try explaining the dozens of sons the kings had. I am sure they didnt have Test Tube baby technology back then.
What other stuff? Yoga. Yes. This is something good. But other than the government making a hue n cry about teaching it, how many of them actually implement it.

Culture they say is respect women. F**k man. We are living in a country where in the capital its unsafe for women to venture out alone after sun down. We are living in a country where to punish a family, the womenfolk are paraded naked. This is our RESPECT to women.

Culture is respect to GOD. Now i dont want to view my views on this. But in the name of god, we witness riots, we witness casteism coz one caste is more favourite of the gods.

at 4 in the morning, i cant really think of what else to include in this post. But thn now i understand something. have a friend in the development sector. she told me that working in the sector sometimes can leave u really depressed. now i know why.
u know the system is rotting. u take a broom and get down into the crap to clean it. once clean, the benefit would accrue to the whole society. there wont be anyone who is hurt.
but u wont be allowed to do it. u wont be allowed to help others with ur own sweat n hardwork.

F**K CULTURE
