Re: sexual frustration
I am sick of this Oreo Cookie jan blaming bollywood, nangi aurat etc anyone but the perpetrator him or herself. We live in the west ourselves and you all know how women dress here in the summer, but how many of us are raping young boys or grabbing those women from the street, stripping them and raping them in our homes? Shouldn't the nanga culture of the west also affect us?
I remember Oreo cookie on a program with farzana bari about a girl in karachi who jumped from an apartment to her death because some guy decided to kidnap and rape her in the apartment. Cue the scene where Mr. Oreo Cookie shows up and not even mincing one word about how evil the act was and how the idiot who did that should be punished, he just launched into how bollywood films are leading our youth into sex crimes like raping women which left farzani bari flabbergasted. If I was on the program, I would have asked him about how many boys and women has he raped since he seems to be part of the same society and am pretty sure that he himself has come into contact with objectionable content on television.
To me, this is a bigger case of law enforcement. Back when Pakistan used to be in the news much often, don't we remember how police stood by while the mob would be lynching christians? Fast forward to two months ago and I was pleasantly surprised that Lahore police actually came in front of a mob and protected a christian poor couple on whom a mob had been let loose by a jahil mullah. How many mob burnings have you seen since then?
I think that the difference now is that the govt and army moved against TTP / taliban in north waziristan and pagris are flying left and right as the infantry and air power blasts them to pieces which probably gives confidence to police that taliban aren't the future of Pakistan. Someone somewhere in police and govt needs to stand and give a horrible punishment for such crimes and then we can talk about bollywood films and naked women.
sarkar, there are many poor souls who cannot read urdu but still luv to comment without reading these columns but sir jee aap to urdu parh saktay hain... did you even read orya's column?
i dont think so because for a change, this time Orya did not blame nangi aurat, bollywood or hollywood for child molestation in pakistan, at least not in this column. Mairee guzarish hai kay aap column to parh lain pehlay.
he was first pointing out another social side of our society to show how some of our biggest poets (mir taqi mir, seemab akbar abadi, josh malih abadi, firaq and many others prominent poets and writers) have fascinated "sex with boys" in their poetry for so long. Orya gave many such examples in this column. Some are so disgusting and I was surprised to know they are coming from our top poets. that is an interesting perspective.
Following that he explained the severity of this problem in our society by giving some real life examples and how dispersed it is at so many different levels in our towns, villages and cities and he then demanded most strict punishment for it.
His one sentence stuck with me that today this problem has become such a big problem in our society that a young boy is at a bigger risk of getting sexually molested than a girl of similar age because girls at least stay at homes and get more protection in our society. so sad but true.
but no where he blamed, bollywood and hollywood in this column, unless we are reading different columns. thx
