I too am from a conservative family and my family observes all the “period” days. “Thooram”, “Theetu”, “Aathu la illai” et al. But the ill-punctuated, ungrammatical vehemence with which Raj has argued makes me cry “Voila”. Here is an unashamed unabashed conservative, North Indian though he may be (whom I detest).

Lage Raho Raj!! Lage Raho

LONG LIVE CONSERVATISM!! BEAT BACK THE INFIDELS!!!!

Raj, I dedicate this comment to you. I wrote this because of you. Dude, I’d really like to meet you and discuss Hindu scriptures with you ;) Should be fun. We could even catch a trip to Amarnath or wherever Gods are more kind. Whaddya say? Bugger off, man!

One thing that Im not sure what its covered in the scriptures, but is a fact that can be observed by any nan himself based on his own experience, is that its not just women but men as well who have periods. That makes us impure as the women whom society would like to ‘control’

Anyway, the incident finished sex for me. But that did not finish the sex urge per se, because just as in women there is a natural rhythm in men. I could notice that there was a peak sometimes, and for months and months you didn’t even know about it.

it’s really unfortunate that man got away with everything for centuries while society ignored women. Half the population of this planet was neglected, humiliated and treated as doormats. Even the Bible story tells you that the woman is made out of the rib of man. What preposterous nonsense! You see, women’s intelligence is lost for this culture. Not only here, it’s the same everywhere.

To be able to observe this, you need to develop certain amount of sensitivity. And for that you need to be able to not be out of control yourself blindly reacting to your carnal desires every time it occurs in your impure mind (otherwise an average man might say that every day it is at a peak ;) ).

Half knowledge of scriptures and even a bad pickles jar can be used in any way to prove anything using some or the other fallacy (hope you checked the expiry date as someone had wisely advised :) ) – but at the end of the day its only one’s own personal experience that really matters.

Some bad news for us men may be that its not just women but men as well who have periods. That makes us impure as the women whom society would like to ‘control’
