    Firstly, blahblah, apologies accepted, I did not see your message when I posted my reply

    Secondly, Shekhar, your explanation of the 'humorous remark' is appreciated. I often don't see the humor in such comments that refer to "poor husbands" in the context of the wife being an equal in the marital relationship. On the other hand, "poor wives" are not meant to be funny but are only used to denote serious issues. The fact that words such as "uxorious" and "hen-pecked" have to be coined for a doting and considerate husband when no such equivalent terms exist for a loving and devoted wife, is beyond my comprehension. So, there are limitations to the love extended to a wife by her husband but not vice-versa

    I do tend to over react sometimes given that I have seen quite a few instances where the "humor" has been un-called for, so there...

    Without the kind of self-assertion that comes with the unique set of experiences in one's life, one cannot declare being proud of what he/she is, so I can't be just proud of being born a woman, although I should say that growing up with only brothers and no sisters made me wish I had been a boy, certainly not any more

    Roshan, thank you for the formal intro. I have indeed, read Shekhar's discussions in the ulagam thread and elsewhere.

    No No Roshan, you didn't do anything intentionally. You all went on and on in swahili and I quietly left.

    Cygnus,

    We all see what we want to see. We believe the partial truths that we have seen, as the complete truth. That's why being a bit cynical about hard perspectives helps us in exposing our mind to broader realities.
    I spice my remarks with humour because I want to erase ego and add tentativeness to my vision of life, so that it doesn't hurt anybody.
    Forumhub is an opportunity for us to open up our closed minds and broaden our horizons. But instead we foolishly fritter away this opportunity by involving in assertions of our own views derived on limited life experiences.

    Hi B or C dolf Hitler,If you don't want to iron or wash,simply don't do that .Why should you burn your on shirt Doing some domestic work and cooking etc.. is for people who really want to do it 8) and who really want to see less working load on their women.

    Dear Sandeep,

    Getting into marriage is like getting into a circus. Whether you become a trapeze artist, or a joker or a handy man depends upon you and your luck! More skillful you are, better are your chances of survival

    Hi Sandeep,May be Shekhar has his own experience .From my experience,it is anything but a circus.Marriage is the union of two hearts which understand each other .For people who can share and forgive it is sheer bliss and fulfilment of life .For those who are selfish and think their wants should always be satisfied,it may be hard to enjoy the relationship .
