When you are in Rome be a Roman .. when you are with Barbarians .. be a Barbarian .. is that what they are trying to tell ......
I pity Kushboo and Suhasini for trying to tie the bell ....
Every Political party has accomplished their agenda ... they have nothing else to take care except... their top most agenda now ...tamil culture ...
Shame on you guys ... go and fix the 1000s of other problem before poking nose into issues like this ...
Politicians (& would be politicians) ...Dont waste your time and waste time of other people .... in organizing such protest ... these statements needs applaud not protest ...

I agree. This is a non issue. Let the protestors listen to what the politicians talk in the stages! So vulgar, so nasty and they go scott free! I do not think Kushboo specifically said "Tamil women" in her statement.
Above all, the TV serial KANAVARUKKAAKA (SUN TV) depicts two husbands (one legally wedded and one by pre marital relationship) as well as two wives active and alive! Where is Tamil culture and these TAMIL PROTECTORS????

I am sitting few miles away from Rome and telling you this. What Kushbu said is wrong. Sexuality in the west has caused an irrivocable damages to the relationships and one can see lot of unmarried guys at 40 and many fatherless kids. There are hell lot of kids missing either father or mother. Sex is a substance that nature has created to strengthn relationships and for reproduction. And pleasure is a bonus for contributing to reproduction and not vice-versa. Let us not spoil our socity with one more evil from the west in the name of being progressive and liberal, the most abused terms these days. Today anything agaist tradition is fashionable and making comment against it gives a brand of an intelectual. Careless beeing is not liberlism. Any act against tradition and culture should be logical and should be of advantage. If its so then that is liberlism. Unfortunatly those who can not control themselves are being called progressive minded. Self restaint is the cost that we have to pay for the social hormony and happy life. Its true that issue does not deserve attention of this magnitude.

yes. Why the hell there is this protest against these two women ,one for speaking her mind,the other one for sympathising with her? These men who condemn these two women in the name of Tamil and Tamil culture are male chauvanists.Are we living in free India ? Protestations all over with brooms and slippers ,burning the effigy is an ugly scene.Are we living in civilised India? When will all this "much ado about nothing" come to a halt?

Why are you requesting to politicians? My dear friend, they never want to help the public. This country is not on the path of progress. It's on the path of corruption, crime, and finally TOTAL DESTRUCTION.

To Elavenil and Ragu:
Lets us put our emotions aside and talk about this issue. What Kusboo said is her perogative, I dont have a say and you dont have a say in it. She is not telling (pls note there is a diffence between telling, asking and expressing) my sister or my daughter or any one, its her view, she is expressing. Its upto you to take that view, she is not forcing it on you, its her right to express her opinion.
Why do we have plane crashes inspite of having so many safety measures. Are u preaching not to fly to avoid crashes?. Even, well laid out plans have their flaws. When something is going wrong or about to go wrong take necessary measures is all she said. The same thing goes to society and humans. We live in a civilized world and I dont want my clan to take chappals and brooms to express their feelings (which are again politically manipulated). If you are so much concerned about society, teach them how to express anger (not this way). Society doesnt hold a marriage tight, the people involved should find how to keep it tight. Please understand this problem exists in our society and we have to address it rationally not emotionally. Thanks.
