And I am sure you are correct on many of your observations. But I have seen things change tremendously between my parent's generation and mine.globalbabblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943342464554767429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2196657894541227895.post-33358264960630959712009-07-29T11:01:45.995+05:302009-07-29T11:01:45.995+05:30Bravo!! bravo.

Gender talk is definitely reliant on analysis, and re-analysis of women. Not nearly enough people are talking about masculinity as a construct. Anywhere in the world.

This "sense of entitlement" is exactly it and while it is obvious in arranged marriages, it's an underlying theme in marriage in general. I wonder if it's restricted to Indian men though - my sister has noticed something similar and she's married to an American, who was raised in a non-traditional way.The Bridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402100518464137956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2196657894541227895.post-91536371019887822562009-07-27T07:01:23.592+05:302009-07-27T07:01:23.592+05:30oops the "ship" got waylaid :-)oops the "ship" got waylaid :-)Anuhttp://subversive-lace.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2196657894541227895.post-28518822735910905122009-07-27T06:51:15.855+05:302009-07-27T06:51:15.855+05:30Very interesting and covers so much ground. My c...Very interesting and covers so much ground. My cousins have been in and out of the arranged marriage process of late and so much of this rings true. I do think though that the strong influence of family on Indian lives works both ways. Men are duty bound to their families in ways they simply not are in the West. It’s true that they are showered with attention and have a sense of self entitlement yet a price is often extracted for it. <br /><br />Though I do think many Indian women are cosseted too, at least until they marry :-) And are equally caught up between the traditional and modern. <br /><br />And please please do an article on that ultimate sign of a refusal to be fully adult – the number of Indians who have a serious relationship only to eventually end up in an arranged marriage (this happened recently to an Aussie friend who was in a relation with an Indian-Australian and suddenly found the guy had gone off to Dilli to get married to mummy’s choice). <br /><br />And now I am off to check on Jinu Joseph who sounds splendid.Anuhttp://subversive-lace.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2196657894541227895.post-68515697839385993872009-07-26T21:18:09.603+05:302009-07-26T21:18:09.603+05:30Wonderful... been so long since I've read some...Wonderful... been so long since I've read something so perceptive and articulate on the web!Anunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2196657894541227895.post-85743176474124980772009-07-26T14:15:37.915+05:302009-07-26T14:15:37.915+05:30Brilliant, brilliant!Brilliant, brilliant!sumana001https://www.blogger.com/profile/07145791768599143668noreply@blogger.com
