yes!! this is very much true
by deepa on Oct 03, 2005 07:57 PM   Permalink

hi..i have lived in chennai for the past 25 years..and yes this is very true..

do you know that we are asked to pin out dupattas when wearing salwars in colleges.. that is chennai tradition..that is how a traditional girl should be.



if you are going with a friend of urs and who happens to be a guy..be sure that every body who sees u there thinks that he is ur boyfriend..and if the big brother catches u he will make sure that he will make the girl cry till he is satisfied..or get the money from them..thats the tradition..



i am not sure whether this is for good or bad..

but now i am leaving outside chennai and i am feeling that i am free in many ways.. i neednt think whether my dupattas is flying..or what wil the society think of me..i am who i am.. and i know the rights and wrong of my culture..i do love it..but i am more free living here then the place i was born
