I came across this YouTube video meant for ‘Public service’ and ‘Social Awareness’ couple of days back on FaceBook and liked it; because I have witnessed such incidences in my community and friends.

 

Below is a beautiful comment friend posted for this Video.

I believe that we will witness such cases with almost all our friends. Indian society is based on family values rather than the concept of indivdual and individuality. I can safely predict that almost all of our common friends will buckle under family pressure. (It’s unfortunate that most of them will end up in arrange marriages in first place 😛

What bothers me is the underlying truth behind this video. It reflects the major part of our society in a very succinct way. I just hate it when guys end up marrying under pressure to someone else just because his mom/dad didn’t approve of their union.

1. Propagates the concept of caste, sub-caste.

2. Propagates the concept of pure breed, pure blood etc. You know what happens when people start taking these things seriously.

3. Propagates male chauvinism. “hum ladke wale hai, hum neche hai” types bull crap.

4. One of the most important decisions of your life is taken by somebody else. And yes, parents don’t know you. Its called generation gap. When a guy says Mom knows best, slap that dude. Mom doesn’t know shit.

5. When there is no arrange marriage to fall back upon, guys have to find there own gals. In the love game, girls have superior cards.

6. And the one that hurts the most; beautiful gals ending up with total dumbasses because the guys family is well to do. Nothing burns more than this 😛
