In fact my own mother in law, who has two sons, has a subconscious sense of superiority over women who have only daughters. Crazy!Anupama K.

As you wonderfully illustrate the desire exists in the urban midst--in mncs, amongst post-graduate and doctorates, amongst the english-speaking community. It exists as a quiet but very powerful undercurrent in our consciousness. Kudos for exposing it!Bhavanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00799522192219059459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1985159231195373351.post-86970307764568408152013-02-23T18:40:16.990+05:302013-02-23T18:40:16.990+05:30Absolutely fab one sis !

My man insists, that we NEED to have a girl at any cost. I know its not a planned thing, but I feel so lucky that the man I'm marrying is not a sexist.<br /><br />Awesome post and God bless your little princess! :)Soumyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439590494620390907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1985159231195373351.post-84163067841140285552013-02-22T12:30:21.728+05:302013-02-22T12:30:21.728+05:30I really cannot believe this is still happening!!!...I really cannot believe this is still happening!!!! Man, why why is there a need to put a label.. some label on a girl. Why can't they just let us be who we are. What's this incessant need to define us into someone/something else!!!<br /><br />I feel so frustrated at such people and I would be happy to give a blast if any such weirdos cross my way!!!Keirthanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17556425369242798255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1985159231195373351.post-27382804212960193472013-02-22T12:28:04.849+05:302013-02-22T12:28:04.849+05:30And yes, Swarnali is rite , ur daughter is one of ...And yes, Swarnali is rite , ur daughter is one of the lucky ones , who'll be treated as a daughter, and the princess of the house ! :)<br />My best wishes to you both ! :DAditi Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764452432961789934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1985159231195373351.post-15646851180120224052013-02-22T12:23:16.369+05:302013-02-22T12:23:16.369+05:30Hahahaha... the last one was truly the best !

Its simply sad ! :/<br />but Bose, I'll tell u, I've faced some similar and absolutely weird theories abt marriage, child-birth, & the best - the age gap btween u and ur child ( which says u must marry and have ur child by the time u turn 25-26 max! so as to understand ur child better, the age gap btween u and ur baby determines wat sort of relation u hav with ur child ! )<br />Woman, it pains when u see educated and well to do ladies talk abt stuffs like that !<br />I'm a 22 yr old, and I have frnds who r happily getting hitched !<br />I mean, wen do u live ur own life ?<br />U complete ur education, and by the time u get ur grad degree in ur hand, u r already a preggo or a going-to-be-preggo !<br />And worst, wen I try to tell them they shud give marriage and kids some time, they try convincing me why I too shud get hitched and a baby soon ! -.-<br />well....<br />May God bless them !Aditi Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764452432961789934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1985159231195373351.post-23034174612618458472013-02-22T12:07:18.291+05:302013-02-22T12:07:18.291+05:30A very well written post, Nibedita.

What irks me the most of all are the color distinctions people make when it comes to daughters. They behave as if a "not-so-fair" daughter is eternally doomed to a life of spinsterhood or won't get a good husband because of her so called "dark" complexion. The whole labeling of independent daughters as the "son of the house" or as having "masculine" qualities is another very irksome notion. I have heard people say, "We have brought up our daughter as we would have done had she been a son and given her all the freedom that a son should get". What is really sorry is that we do not educate or even try to instill the female compassion into our sons or try to bring them up with the values of our daughters.<br />Again an extremely well written post. Your daughter is a lucky one :)Swarnalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07838907845653317492noreply@blogger.com
