i am not marriage material
by bw Thu Mar 05, 2015 6:48 pm
When Indhuja Pillai’s parents posted a “groom wanted” advert on a matrimonial site, they thought they would find a nice husband for their only daughter. Instead they found she had become a poster girl for thousands of young Indian women who yearn to rebel against arranged marriages and make their own lives.
She posted her own advertisement – which has since gone viral – in which she described herself as a “speccy dork” and tomboy searching for a beardy macho man who does not like children and is not close to his family.
Her advert was seen as a war cry on behalf of young Indian women, most of whom are still expected to marry a man their parents choose and be a housewife with no ambition of their own. Most are expected to live with their husband’s family, be dutiful to his mother and bear him sons.
It emerged amid the outcry over the comments of one of the men sentenced to death for the 2013 gang rape and murder of a Delhi student who said she was to blame for her own death.

What a load of "crap" Those who advertise on the net are likely to be middle class - low, or high. Young couple from these categories stopped living with their parents - automatically after marriage - long long ago. many of thse youngsters get loan and a flat and a car - if not more. In most cases both work and have own goals and ambition...
Oh wait... it came from a newspaper from a WHITE country. So, it MUST be true.

>>>> More power to the women if they are asserting themselves in whom they want to tie the knot with (or not at all). However, this narrative seems to be a bit of a stretch. If she has a degree in engineering, she is presumably from an educated, middle class background. The expectations of no ambition and living with husband's family don't seem to add up for this demographic.bw wrote:When Indhuja Pillai’s parents posted a “groom wanted” advert on a matrimonial site, they thought they would find a nice husband for their only daughter.

You are NOT marriage material. Those women are nurses from the asylum you keep running away from.
