the old woman: We think that your old endogamous caste system is the
reason
for the lack of openness. In comparison,
nations wich are less dominated
by such situations have received more foreign
investment. Because,
visitors feel less bottled up in those places.
the hindu guy: I guess there may be a point in how you look at it.
Because, some of my
organized watchers, voyeurs I might say, have
belonged to a certain
caste.
the old woman: The women and backward caste people were treated pretty
bad in your
religion. We helped you reform the religion by
stopping the sati ritual,
and introducing the widow remarriage, often
against religious
orthodoxy.
the hindu guy: Still, in some temples, women and backward castes are
not allowed
to enter and touch the deity! Such situations
should be corrected.
The freedom fighter Bose had sought to correct
the caste inequalities,
so he was not helped by some caste
fundamentalists.
the old woman: Would you say he had suggested a let's ignite the thread
kinda
movement if he succeeded and came to power?
the hindu guy: Not really. He was a thoroughbred intellectual and a
warrior. He would
have definitely respected religious symbolisms.
But then, he was a
strong proponent of equal rights for all.
the old woman: Speaking of the endogamous caste system, if a member of
a particular
caste does your wife at conferences, and the
police minister and
police chief of a town belongs to the same
caste, you would naturally
be watched around in that city. Just to maintain
their microjihadi
oneupmanship.
the hindu guy: So that I cannot do a woman of their caste in a
reciprocal way!
Amazing!
the old woman: In a sense, continued practice of microjihadi
oneupmanship sometimes
gives rise to retaliatory macrojihadi outbursts.
But, then, those that
appear to fight macrojihadi outbursts often use
methods that involve
further repression of "voting" rights!
the hindu guy: Sounds like a regenerative process aimed at maintaining
oneupmanship!
the old woman: We now understand that you don't feel comfortable when a
bunch of
undereducated microjihadi oneupmen watch you
around all the time.
You would rather go without sex for long periods
than being intimate
under nonideal situations.
the hindu guy: That's exactly right. That's why I have always
preferred direct
communication form women.
