Believe it or not.................................another DISGUSTING comment that I've heard aunties say is*............"Oh my daughter is so obedient. She would marry any guy I handed her over to."*
I kid you not. I've ACTUALLY heard such comments. Can you believe that? Educated aunties bragging about such obedience in their daughters. "My daugther would agree to marry any guy that me and her father choose to bind her to."
That's sick! Out of ALL the things that a mother can choose to brag about in regards to her daughter................she chooses THIS?
And GOD FORBID..........what if the guy that mommy has chosen for her daughter turns out to be a TOTAL DOUCHE BAG.................would mommy STILL go around bragging about her daughter's blind obedience to the other aunties? Or would she then feel some shame that her plan fizzled and popped????????
Such bragging is not something to be proud of. If you want to brag about something.......brag about how intelligent your daugther is.........or how independent and strong she is.............or how good her character is. It's sick to brag about how angelic and blindly obedient your lado rani is.
Bragging about how your daugther would have married any guy you thrust her hands into...............reduces her to CATTLE. MOOOOO!
Well, as long as are having a nice and mature discussion, I would like to point out some deficiencies in 'some' of the girls and their moms who belong to the other end of the spectrum.
The girls gets a rishta of a nice, educated, decent, good looking guy but he's not that rich. The girls will be boasting next day to her friend I rejected him because he didn't belong to MY class... see how classy I am. And the girl's mom would be bragging to her friends "Jee uss bechare ki to pay hi sirf 50000 thee itne main to bechara sirf meri honey ke clothes khareedta"
Another scenario. Some girls are over-obsessed with physical attraction and reject good rishtas just to marry a great looking playboy. You see, nature has a way that guys are in general less good looking than girls. So judging a guy just by his physical attractiveness seems really shallow. I think what he has acheivedi in his life, his characters etc should also count. There obviously needs to be some physical attraction in the guy for the girl, but I have seen way too many girls getting either ruined by "being cosy" with good looking douchebags, or marrying great looking playboys. Hence, I think physical attraction is one factor and should be considered, but some girls take it too far
Bye the way, I seriously disagree that girls are forced to marry just anyone in educated families. Its become very rare from what I have observed in the past couple of years.
