take me home...

I heard it again. And it still hurts.

I am tired of listening to Mumbaikars generalize north Indians as rude, aggressive, ruthless souls. These traits are found all around and not just exclusive to northindians…

Today looking at a guy from Jaipur who is soft spoken, a friend said “ he’s a northindian, a welcome change” . I only say, do not generalize. Coz when you do that it takes every northindian including my husband father, Tauji and many others into the same bucket …they, who are most polite people on this earth.

I am aggressive I agree…I have a voice and opinion, not because I am a northindian it is because “it is me”, and the way I have been brought up, with a right to speak my mind always. It is individuality of people and not a broad generalization.

I have not seen this in any other city but only in Mumbai…. So much of hatred / discrimination towards north Indians. I will say again… I am an Indian first, and I want to live with as much right as you do in a city of my own country…but things like this make me hate the city as much…and I wonder when destiny will take me to a city of my country where I am welcome.

mentality of indian women

so what if i have balls to do what i want to, and stand up to my rights - against the society, family and friends...so what if i have not made myself into a baby making machine like what is expected of a typical indian girl...so what if i want to lead my life my way and dont want to live terms dictated by parents, inlaws or husband

it does not make me any lesser women / person than you - or anyone for that matter ...



do we need to explain

when you know the reasons for your actions, and the world does not...they tend to judge you...

so...must u go all out to explain "why's" for actions...or let it be?
