Young people have carved out a new world of situationships, hook-ups, and nanoships, but the space to act on that sexual freedom keeps shrinking in India.
By adopting a multifaceted approach that includes education, early intervention, & support, we can strive to prevent & address problematic sexual behavior, creating a safer world for all.
The Intelligence Bureau report, sent to SC collegium, says lawyer is gay and lives with his partner, who is a foreign national and could pose a security risk.
Advertising has typically endorsed the idea of the 'ideal woman', but that's slowly changing as women reclaim their sexuality and agency in society today.
Sidekicks are quintessential in Bollywood, and every few years, when a star or lead shines, a filmmaker reminds us that the person next to the hero is a key ingredient in the recipe.
SEBI probe concluded that purported loans and fund transfers were paid back in full and did not amount to deceptive market practices or unreported related party transactions.
While the IAF remains committed to the Tejas programme and has placed orders for 180 Tejas Mk1A, the force is eagerly waiting for the Tejas Mk 2 version.
Many really smart people now share the position that playing cricket with Pakistan is politically, strategically and morally wrong. It is just a poor appreciation of competitive sport.
Parents must modernise. Their insistence on their wards staying in college/university hostels is the crux of the issue. Hostels have very restrictive rules, even more so for women.
The urban middle class parents can obviously afford to let their wards stay in rented accommodation. The children can have ample scope for enjoying intimacy in the safe and secure space of their own rented flat.
Also, sex education must be made mandatory in schools. Children must be educated about safe sex practices.
College and university authorities must not act against students seeking intimacy. Rather they must act as facilitators for such students and assist them in finding safe spaces where they can enjoy intimacy.
Parents and teachers/professors must evolve with time. Instead of discouraging sex, they must encourage it. A starting point can be the removal of all CCTV cameras from college premises. This would ensure ample safe space for necking and canoodling, if not sex.
The best part of this article was the fact that the girl asked for sex. The Chattisgarh guy could not even manage to bring up the topic, but the girl took the initiative. Such bold and sexually liberated girls must be encouraged and praised. They will bring about a revolution in Indian society.
I can relate to Vikram’s experience.
I too had the privilege of renting a flat during college and therefore could enjoy life. Most of my friends used to have their rendezvous at my place. So much so that I earned quite a reputation at college. Unfortunately, some of them (or rather their partners) were in the habit of making loud sounds during “the act”. Neighbours, at times, used to get pissed.
Heartfelt thanks to the journalist for addressing this very serious issue.
I was in a relationship with my neighbouring aunty. She was married with two kids. It was really tough to get privacy. We would be yearning for days for some intimacy.
OYO was like a God sent for us. Ritesh Agarwal is an angel and I will always be thankful to him.
The government must mandate that every institution of higher education should have an on-campus “guest house”. Where students wanting to have sex can get a room at subsidised rates. This would ensure that those with very little pocket money can afford a private space to enjoy with their partners. Also, being on-campus and administered by the institute would guarantee safety and security. The “guest house” should ideally have a condom vending machine too and promote safe sex practices. This would also generate much needed revenue for the college/university.
The parents should open up their homes too. Why would they want their son or daughter to have sex in a dingy and unsafe OYO room? The parents can always accommodate their children and their sex partners in their own home. In fact, parents must encourage their children to come home with their partners and have a good time.
As has been commented by some others, this generation is hungry for intimacy and getting a safe and secure space to do it poses a serious challenge. The government, the college authorities and the parents should co-ordinate amongst themselves to create an environment where college/university students can get ample amount of intimacy in a safe and secure way.
Shameful indeed!
Ms. Sagarika Kissu interviews and quotes Prof. Nivedita Menon – an academic whose anti-Hindu and anti-India tirades are available on Youtube for everyone to see. Over the years Prof. Menon has been thoroughly exposed for what she truly is – a privileged hypocrite in an unrelenting quest for vilifying and denigrating Hindus. Her hatred for Hindus knows no bounds. Neither does her contempt for the Indian nation.
Menon can be best described as a Pakistani asset operating out of India.
We have mastered the art of traveling backwards. I am not sure how on earth a state could pass a law to make it mandatory to register if two adults choose to stay together. And no one seems to have any problem with it? How is this not an invasion of privacy? And how on earth can any hotel chain insist on proof of marriage? Why should it be anybody’s problem if one goes with one’s married partner or someone else?! The irony is we say 18 year olds are mature enough to choose the ones to lead the country but cant choose what they do with another consenting adult!
A pathetic society is what we seem to be becoming.
