@Reha

A - Im not angry at all. I think it can come off that way because my posts are a bit direct. So, for the future…point noted.

B - Im asking you what you have to say about this because you addressed my post. I addressed yours back. If I answer you back, its not an attack. I dont take your approach to marriage or women personally, so please dont be offended by my approach.

well asking me back definitely woudn’t be an attack…but when you add your little ‘direct’ remarks like this one..it SEEMS personal…

@Reha

Apne giray baan mein jhankna seekhein.

you concluded, even before my reply, that i do not ‘jhaank in my giray baan’ and i am being a hypocrite…that somehow you are entitled to lecture me on ‘giraybaan jhaanking’ I can make a 100 comments like these too and then say ’ i am not being personal’.

because frankly this ‘direct’ approach of yours causes the threads to look like a bickering contest…so my honest suggestion to you is to try hard and discuss and comment on the topic/content of post and NOT THE PERSON…

Here is a little excerpt from wikipedia..i hope you do take the feedback as it is…

Ad hominem

Ad hominem abuse

Ad hominem abuse (also called personal abuse or personal attacks) usually involves insulting or belittling one’s opponent in order to invalidate his or her argument, but can also involve pointing out factual but ostensible character flaws or actions which are irrelevant to the opponent’s argument. This tactic is logically fallacious because insults and even true negative facts about the opponent’s personal character have nothing to do with the logical merits of the opponent’s arguments or assertions.
Examples:

• “You can’t believe Jack when he says the proposed policy would help the economy. He doesn’t even have a job.”
• “Candidate Jane’s proposal about zoning is ridiculous. She was caught cheating on her taxes in 2003.”

and on your ‘addressed post’…i was merely pointing out the fact that ‘those hindu culture adaptations are as bad/good as the christmas tree’…and that if a person is against the tree then he/she should also be against these ‘adaptations’…which i am.
