Salam
Noor. I can understand Mediya being nasty but you. How could you!!
Instead of egging them on, dont you think we ought to
encourage the new couple to be just a bit more patient.
Their kitchen sink is surely just a drive away.
I would certainly not like to see a lot more, right there.
Omrow
noor, you think couples should kiss on their wedding in front of everyone?
thats about as bad as kissing in the middle of the street.
Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Wow.
That was actually quite beautiful.
I am impressed by the light.
there are things which need to be kept private...

zara.
I think what light is trying to say without actually saying it is that
true love is something that cannot be kept hidden.
[color=indigo][b]Some may not see kissing as a MAJOR thing.. so therefore why would it need to be kept private..?[/b][/color]
ahhh...

The kid has a natural talent.
She will go far.
She just has a little problem with expressing herself better.
But sum things are left better when behind closed doors.
[color=indigo][b]Too right they are.. but one may not see kissing as an extreme thing.[/b][/color]
one thing leads on to another...i read this somewhere...

[color=indigo][b]Yeah and im sure everyone is aware of their limits when in public..
Anyhow lets stick to topic before we get a bashing from Mr Admin![/b][/color]
It’s a contentious issue….some have an issue with husband and wives even TALKING to one another at their own wedding day, even though they most prob spent the last few months/years getting to know each other…..Whilst others take it to the other extreme and think its OK to kiss and dance in front of parents/elders.
There’s a middle line here somewhere…
i stil dont understand why the hell THAT ^^^ made a news article
and why grandpa omro thought it was important enough to post it :roll:
Gulsoom is 17-years-old and married. Last year she tried to commit suicide - she failed.
She set fire to herself but, against the odds, survived with appalling injuries.
Her plight reflects that of a growing number of young Afghan women, campaigners say.
Driven to desperation by forced marriages and abusive husbands, more and more are seeking release through self-immolation.
Gulsoom was engaged at the age of 12. Three years later her family married her to a man aged 40 who she says was addicted to drugs.
She was then taken to Iran. Her husband beat her regularly, Gulsoom says, particularly when he had no money for heroin.
"Once after I was badly beaten by my husband, I was in bed when I heard a voice murmuring and telling me to go and set fire to myself," she says.
"I went and poured petrol on my whole body. The flames on my body lasted for minutes. After eight days I found myself conscious in bed.
The UN Assistance Mission in Afghanistan says that Kandahar's only hospital for women, which has 40 beds, received 29 cases of suicide in the space of two months. Twenty of those women had set themselves alight.
Independent Human Rights Commission head Sima Samar regrets that, five years after the Taleban were ousted, Afghan women are still suffering violence in its various forms.
She says suicide is the final decision for women who don't have any other way to solve their problems or escape abuse

To be beautiful is to expect nothing in return.
I couldn't find this topic about a week ago, or I would have posted a story where the military of Fiji delayed their coup so that they could go ahead with a rugby match with the police on friday the 1st of December.
The coup took place on Monday 4th of december.
Now that is what you call having your priorities right.

How pathetic.
They were probably right to sack him. He's only a supply teacher and telling Christian kids Santa's not real is a well established no-no.

I disagree.
At most a warning.
The kids will have to learn some day.
I myself am against peddling such lies.
All it does is pave the way for a somnambulant public.
If you are willing to give mass lies to kids, where do you stop?
and Santa is not real, not even for christians.

Murder police find two more dead
Two more bodies have been found by police investigating the murders of three prostitutes.
A woodland area around the village of Levington, near Ipswich, in Suffolk, was sealed off by officers on Tuesday.
Police said it was likely the two bodies were those of two missing women - Paula Clennell and Annette Nicholls.
The area is close to where the body of Anneli Alderton was found on Sunday. The bodies of Gemma Adams, and Tania Nicol were also found near Ipswich.
Ms Clennell, 24, and 29-year-old Ms Nicholls, have not been heard from since Sunday
We have got three prostitutes murdered, now possibly another two. I do not know what stronger warning there can be to get off the streets as soon as possible," he said.

Has anyone been following this story?
It’s sad…but what I don’t understand is why aren’t the police stating the obvious?
The women were carrying out illegal activities and getting into strange men’s cars…how dangerous is that? …I read in the papers that the women are STILL on the street. IMO they should be arrested for their own protection…prostitution is illegal.

I found this fascinating...its so weird how much preferences vary all over the world.
Mauritania's 'wife-fattening' farm
Obesity is so revered among Mauritania's white Moor Arab population that the young girls are sometimes force-fed to obtain a weight the government has described as "life-threatening".
A generation ago, over a third of women in the country were force-fed as children -
Now only around one in 10 girls are treated this way. The treatment has its roots in fat being seen as a sign of wealth - if a girl was thin she was considered poor, and would not be respected.
Obesity is seen as a sign a husband cares for his wife
Fatematou said that it was rare for a girl to refuse to eat, and that if they did, she was helped by the child's parents.
"They punish the girls and in the end the girls eat," she said.
Fatematou admitted that sometimes the girls cried at the treatment.
"Of course they cry - they scream," she said.
"We grab them and we force them to eat. If they cry a lot we leave them sometimes for a day or two and then we come back to start again.
"They get used to it in the end."
"They are proud and show off their good size to make men dribble. Don't you think that's good?"
I asked her if she ever felt cruel, beating and force feeding children?
"No! It's not cruel to make girls fat!" she said.
"Me, I've seen 10-year old girls give birth. I tell you, 10 years old!
"Once they are fat and beautiful they can serve their men well, once they are fat they can be married."
