Around a decade ago there was a watershed in Indian culture. We saw a concept come about in India and abroad. It was called the New Indian Male. The very idea of the New Indian Male was a gentleman. He wore clothes that fit and wasn’t picked out by his mother. He understood fashion. He …

What Are You Thinking?
Boys will be boys. That’s what we say when we get up to hi-jinks and shenanigans. And my youth was filled with such shenanigans.

Rights of the Silent Majority – Sex Slavery and Prostitution
I agree with Taslima Nasrin. Sex slavery is something that has to be abolished. India is one of the places where sex slavery still occurs. Women are kidnapped from places like Nepal and Burma and traded as prostitutes. Their illegal status allows them to be kept under control. Many are lured into making such deals …
