Social Picture : Hypocrisy Unlimited 😏

 

Listed below some hot topics of a BIPOLAR Society and viewpoints from a Human perspective...

Divorce, Dignity, and the Delusion of a Modern Society

As India grapples with the COVID-19 crisis, another silent tragedy plays out. The death toll has left countless children orphaned. Child rights organizations are rushing to arrange legal adoptions, trying to prevent the horrific rise of trafficking.

While society mourns these children and scrambles to act, we must pause and reflect:
What does it mean to be human in a society that shuns humanity at its core?
What is human capital when our values are so bankrupt?


When the Gates Opened: Bill & Melinda's Divorce

Bill and Melinda Gates' divorce was called “the biggest split since Ram and Sita.” A humorous take, but it reveals a lot about our cultural psyche. In ancient times, legal divorce didn’t even exist—yet we romanticize painful separations as divine sacrifice. Today, though we have the legal tools, we lack the emotional maturity and social compassion to handle divorce with dignity.

India still treats divorce as a social stigma, not a personal choice.

Step into any family court, and you'll witness a system buckling under the weight of marital disputes—cases riddled with baseless allegations, toxic mind games, and ego battles. Instead of seeing divorce as a resolution, we treat it like a courtroom brawl.


The Dual Faces of Society: Children, Orphanages, and "Legitimacy"

Take a closer look at our orphanages. You’ll find not just children who lost their parents, but those born out of wedlock—rejected by families and society alike. Yet, once adopted, these same children are suddenly considered legitimate and worthy of respect.

Our moral compass swings wildly between compassion and cruelty, depending on convenience.


A Woman’s Choice is Society’s Obsession

Recently, psychologist Jaseena Backer shared a powerful post. She was counseling a financially stable woman preparing to leave her marriage. She had informed her family, signed a rental lease, and was mentally preparing for the road ahead. But her biggest fear? Society.

Not financial strain. Not loneliness.
Just the noise of mudslingers.

As Jaseena aptly put it, “Mudslingers contribute nothing but take away your peace.” She quoted Christopher Walken:

“If you knew how quickly people forget the dead, you would stop living to impress people.”

Even Melinda Gates wasn’t spared post-divorce gossip. Despite handling it with dignity and public clarity, everyone felt entitled to dissect their marriage.

And while Melinda may be shielded by privilege, the average Indian woman is not.

She faces:

  • Family guilt-trips about her unmarried sister’s “future.”

  • Judgment for wearing red lipstick or laughing too loud.

  • Ostracism from female friends for being a “threat.”

  • Gossip for attending festivals or parties alone.

  • Housing and job discrimination for being a divorcee.

  • Condemnation for daring to find joy post-divorce.

Yet many Indian women still walk out of toxic marriages—not because it’s easy, but because they choose peace over pretense.

And society owes them silence, not scrutiny.


Marriage is No Longer Sacred, Only Convenient

Let’s be honest: relationships today are fluid. People engage in multiple relationships before marriage. Live-ins are normalized. Partner swapping is silently accepted.

But dare to walk out of a marriage? Suddenly, it’s blasphemy.

Why? Because marriage is seen as a sacred Hindu bond meant to uphold progeny and legacy—not as an emotional or spiritual partnership. Ironically, many who claim to defend the sanctity of marriage are themselves living double lives.


Karmic Closure: A New Way to View Divorce

Our scriptures talk of “lena-dena”—karmic transactions between souls.
So why can’t divorce be seen as a karmic closure, rather than a courtroom war?

When two people end their marriage with mutual respect and clarity, they’re not just parting—they’re clearing space for each other’s peace. That takes courage, not shame.

In contrast, many stay legally married but lead fractured lives—multiple partners, hollow connections—all to avoid the dreaded label of "divorcee."


Hypocrisy Has Replaced Morality

Today, loyalty is mocked. Commitment is old-fashioned.
We expect couples to stay married, but quietly accept infidelity.

In this performative society:

  • You’re expected to stay in a broken marriage.

  • Our Sick Society: Educated But Not Evolved

We have orphanages and old-age homes growing at alarming rates.
LGBTQ+ communities still battle for basic rights.
Single women are treated like public property.
Red-light areas coexist with lectures on chastity.

And amid all this, those who judge others the most often have no control over the fates of their own marriages, spouses, or children.


There Was a Better Way: Matrilineal Societies

Before patriarchy tightened its grip, India had matrilineal societies—communities where descent passed through the mother’s line. These were not anarchies. They were societies of peace, as even the United Nations recognizes.

We still worship our Kul Devi, our family goddess. That’s the legacy of Phratry—a tradition where women had agency, and respect wasn’t conditional on marital status.

In this format, highly recommended by United Nations also.. all the above social problems or duality we are facing today in terms of demarcation; will cease to exist. The societies of peace are driven by feminine energy filled with love and empathy and not chauvinism. 

The biggest advantage? You will save all your resources invested in Women empowerment drama ( and then we needn't pen down her sad story of being victimized gaining sympathy votes).

Imagine how many “empowerment” campaigns we could scrap if we simply went back to respecting women as full individuals—not appendages of their husbands.


Your Only Compass Is Your Soul

In the end, you don’t owe explanations to society. You only have to face one person—yourself.

So turn on your inner GPS. Use your free will. Walk your path with dignity, whether it's toward love, peace, solitude, or healing.

And remember:

In a world that clings to outdated labels, choosing truth is the most radical thing you can do.

"Wife or a Whore?" Or Dust under her feet!

Lets change the narrative.. the perspective and positioning !! Well, this is one statement which after a certain age applies to women.. pls note the word "AGE"!! This was mentioned in a book reading session by Sharbari Zohra Ahmed, in her Debut Novel,   "Dust under her feet!" The  Quantico  scriptwriter moves from an International thriller, expressing a high voltage drama series for Hollywood and now back into the 1940s, where her story revolves around Yasmine Khan, the protagonist. Sharbari expresses that it was probably Yasmine Khan, the focal point chose her, cause while writing the fiction,  she could clearly go back into times and see the visuals of the yesteryears when World War II had set in.. There is a lot which Sharbari has contributed into this novel, above her body mind and soul.. fifteen years have gone into crafting the epic! What beyond? The Author has actually gone to the libraries of Kolkata, dug out their archival section, newspapers, magazines, hu...

Sands to Skyscrapers: Dubai’s Architectural Marvels

A New Dawn in the Desert By: Kulveen Narula “The future belongs to those who can imagine it, design it, and execute it. It isn't something  you await, but rather create.” — H. H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum A t the turn of the millennium, while the world was celebrating the arrival of Y2K , a quiet revolution had begun brewing in the Middle East. The United Arab Emirates, particularly Dubai , was preparing to reimagine itself—not just as a city but as a symbol of human possibility. From a land once known only for its sands and souks, rose a futuristic skyline that rivals the best on Earth. In just 25 years , Dubai evolved into a global epicentre of design, engineering, and luxury—where the homo sapiens are actually living on Cloud 9, giving us a strong dream etched on sand, which didn't disappear overnight but amplified year on year imparting a twinkle in the eye of millions in the world to light up a dream.  The Visionary Behind the Rise The transformation is no...
