I have no idea why I wandered onto this thread after so long, but it was a right laugh (much needed too!). Jai, as usual *applauds* and I only just spotted Rumbold’s comment at #92… oh my God. It must be done. CALL SKY ONE NOW!

Ashik’s problem is that he is a weak man. Weak men want control because they are frustrated they have none. For instance, he is pissed that women of his community actually have the gull to criticise their community and stand up for their liberties, and walking out if they are not happy. This is wrong, he rationalises, it goes against religion, family, community. That is why he abuses Sonia so much. But what can he do? He is weak.

And then there is sex. Ashik is both aroused and disgusted with this concept of female sexual freedoms. Aroused because he confuses sexual freedom with “being easy” (prostitutes, pay’n'all). He must think to himself that if he wasn’t such a devout muslim, he would be having sex whenever he wanted. And disgusted, because it means losing “control” over women. But what can he do? He is weak.

That was irony, right?

Er…..yeah…..irony…..okay, that’s what we’ll call it…..I was just trying to — hey look, a hot blonde girl in a white tank-top !

That was irony, right?

if ashik is trying to call me a prostitute, that only makes me laugh. what an odd thing to do, revealing of his mindset more than anything else.

Agreed, but it makes you think, though. What kind of sick twisted guy goes around making those type of remarks across the internet to complete strangers (never mind women in general) ?

You seem to made of stern stuff, based on your cool-headed response to it. Good for you.

Maybe you should get your husband to come on here and give Ashik a piece of his mind too, man-to-man. Just to make things interesting. We’ll see how cocky Ashik is then.

1) a culturally compromised woman (and of questionable virtue) who is good for dating – aka fornicator
2) a woman considered good marriage material and more in touch with her ethnic/religious identity, though not necessary wholly traditional.
3) eccentric

Freaking fornicators. What shame and filth they have left us in our collective ancient history. If those Kama Sutra-wallas were still alive today, I’d have flogged them.

Although, she’s looking for a Punjabi Sikh doctor with blue eyes from a well-to-do family. Don’t know if you fit the bill.

Your handle can be “On Big Ben” and mine can be “Statue of Sexual Liberty.”

What say? You like?

or is that californication syndrome at thread no. 83

His catchphrase will be widely heard in the playground: “curse those damn Dhakaris!”

no.87 – very funny

Desi, you are hilarious indeed. and 80 is spot spot on.
89 vikrant, you speaketh much sense there!

heh some of the comments on this thread are really worth a ‘goodness gracious me’ type of comedy.

psst… but that was written by those bleedin’ idolators who are haram for our buddy as well!

I think you have handled the very personal nature of the comments very well. In victorianspeak, in fact, like a lady – perhaps the type that is the version 2) woman as classified by Ashik

Perhaps even longer. When did we asians first publish the Kama Sutra? When one considers this book it does not make us look too emancipated

that is quite funny, but then again, a lot of religious people do seem to be obsessed with all things sexual.

Religious fanaticism you see, isnt a really effective offset for sexual frustration.

Sexual moralists usually end up becoming sexual perverts in their 50’s to make up for the time they wasted when they were young.

All very Victorian, isn’t it.

Totally! Does anyone even use the word “fornication” anymore? Needless to say in my frat house in this college town full of fornicators, the word loses its meaning completely!
