The city (unfortunately in this State) where my Indian relatives dwell, they assert, is not worth living from a female's point of view. My cousin, Lavanya, reports that she is stalked every other day. Sometimes, she and her friends like to hang out at a place in their city that is a popular hang out among youngsters. She says its difficult to pass by the roads without having to be eve teased. I am kinda shocked. It doesn't happen here. My sis is so lucky. Though I feel real sad for our cousin.
uttar pradesh is part of the BIMARU (sickly) belt of india - made of the names of the 4 lousiest indian states BIhar, MAdhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh - the boondocks of an underdeveloped country.
those arnt too worth living for guys either !!
but i want to know, in doing this knit-picking and witch-hunting an finger-pointing-, who is it from whom you seek to score a few brownie points??
there are worse places in the world.
the divorce rates in india is like 1/500. single mothers are in a lesser ratio still. match that.
and i still dont see how eve-teasing makes that place so unique. as if it doesnt happen in other places !!
And yes, I loved Lagaan; Aamir's Oscar nominated film. First, they spoke English mostly and that little Indian actress, who played Aamir's girl, was so stunning.
Wondering what's your age, MinDSay. I am only 18 and a half. :wink:
no offence ... but you know these search engines... 
anyway... I know you are 18 and a half... I am almost 20 and 4 months...
