No Sex, We are Indians




No people in the world are more confused in their attitude towards sex than we Indians. Lands of phallus- yoni worshipers laud the virtues of virginal chastity, renunciation of sex and brahmacharya.

The Indian woman as a sexual object is vilely abused. Manu reviled her as lusty, unreliable unfaithful and with as insatiable appetite for sex.

When kissing is forbidden, how is it that rape remains a staple feature of Indian films? It is because humiliation of women is an integral part of the Indian male fantasy of love. So, we have evolved three kinds of lovers; Majnu’s, Krishna’s and the latest; Sharukh Khan-who is “good bad hero, neither overtly emotional like majnu nor boyishly phallic like the Krishna Lover. In turn he has bred a new brand of heroine, “a masculine feminine girl” the Kumari as the tom boy.

The sari is both a very ornamental as well as functioned dress. Properly draped, it can accentual the contours of the female form giving a special roundness to buttocks. A well cut blouse worn with the sari elevates the bosom and exposes the belly to below the navel. There is no other form of female attire which can both conceal physical short comings of the wearer as well as expose what deserves exposure. A fat woman looks less fat in a sari than she would be in a dress and then women looks more filled in. at the same time sari is very functional. All a woman has to do when she wants to urinate or defecate is to lift it to her waist. When required to engage in a quick sexual inter course, she needs to do no more than draw it up a little and open her lights.

To most newlywed Indian couples, the concept of privacy is as alien as that of love. They rarely get a room to themselves; the bride-wife sleeps with other women members of her husband’s family the husband shares his charpoy (cots) lined alongside his fathers and brothers. Occasionally the mother-in-law, anxious to acquire a grandson will contrive a meeting between her son and his wife. The most common technique is to get her to take a tumbler of milk to the lad when male member are elsewhere. The lad grabs the choice for the “quickie”. Hardly ever do the couple get enough time for a prolonged and satisfying bout of intercourse. Most Indians men are not even aware that women also have orgasms; most Indian women share this ignorance because although they go from one pregnancy to another, they have no idea that sex can be pleasurable. This is a sad commentary on the people of a country which produced the most widely read treatise on the art of sex, Kama Sutra and evaluated the act of sex to spiritual sublimity by explicit depictions on its temples.
