"Virginity can be lost by a thought", is the possible explanation to my conclusion. It all started when Adam decided to obey what Eve said. The event didn’t only trigger the henpecked era but also led to the civilization.

Questions are raised why did Eve do it? Was she married? Well, we all doubt. She was a virgin who collapsed the gates because she couldn’t stand guarding it. Times have changed. When the films of ‘American Pie’, ‘Road Run’ and ‘Forty Days and Forty Nights’ used to hit the stands, I used to sneak somehow to get two tickets and make into the hall with my girlfriend clasping her hand. And we used to feel great because we were not married and she still  virgins.

Once during a college fest I had met a beautiful American blonde and during our tête-à-tête I asked whether she prefers virginity or not and she said "it’s a wonderful way of getting popular in school". I guess a clue had been taken from that by the youths in Bangalore.

I agree it’s quite hard for a teenager to be virgin but then keeping your virginity until you reach a mature stage and knowing the ifs and bits of birth control, and possible STD is important. My girlfriend used to get wild sometimes and wants me to pamper her but I am firm belief that if she is going to have it then it’s only after marriage.

Question is am I being harsh to her, or she doubts by manhood? That’s a thing of ignominy. But whether she knows herself well enough that is the all important question. The girl, whom I am going to date in future is probably going to be my wife. What are the things I require from her? Love, care, and most important 100 per cent trust. It’s all case of trust when it comes to live with a girl, if she had a pre-marital sex, she should be bold enough to dispose the matter to me; the same case holds for me too.

I may sound too vague but I don’t understand the concept of ‘casual sex’. For me there has to be some emotion involved when I am going to sleep with someone. And that emotion can only come when the particular person has rapport with me, and I believe getting married for sex is" like buying 747 for free peanuts.

Also, man in general are better than women to talk to; I see I can talk to a man more than a woman. Most of my friends believe that I am very conservative in my outlook. That a girl clamors for sex and the ‘TDH’ (Tall, dark & Handsome) factor works, but to me marriage is an institution, the more compassion there, the more investment you do in it, the more valuable it becomes.

I would never want myself to be confronted in a situation where my wife come to make a statement that she resorted to pre-marital sex earlier and now she has problems. I don’t like myself to be the lover who said that he would go hell for her and now married he is undergoing hell. This is the worst case think in a socialite party when someone tells you that your wife had been in his bed earlier that would make the situation really grim.I don’t curse women for pre-marital sex but in future there should be no excuse. If a man thinks that by love and compassion it would be quite reachable to solve the matter, then its ok. But I am of the notion that I want someone whose true to me in her words .I think man who have pierced ear are better prepared for marriage, and I am one since I have experienced pain and brought jewellery too.

I don’t know what fate has stored for me but definitely yes! I will go by the lines as I frequently used to tell it my girl, "when a man holds a women hand before marriage its love, after marriage it is self-defense." And who would not like to be protected by a virgin, after all Mother Mary was a virgin too.

Very important information.

Do you know that there is an expiry date (physical life) for LPG cylinders?

Most of us do not know this.

Expired Cylinders are not safe for use and may cause accidents.

In this regard please be cautious at the time of accepting any LPG cylinder from the vendor.

Here is how we can check the expiry of LPG cylinders:

On one of three side stems of the cylinder,

the expiry date is coded alpha numerically as follows

A or B or C or D and some two digit number following this e.g. D06.

The alphabets stand for quarters -

A for March (First Qtr),

B for June (Second Qtr),

C for Sept (Third Qtr), &

D for December (Fourth Qtr).

The digits stand for the year till it is valid. Hence D06 would mean Fourth Qtr (December) of 2006.

What i am writing below is an outcome of discussion we had in the morning at home.people sway different opinions though.i say my story as follows….

The right to speech and expression is guaranteed under the constitution of India but can one really exercise this right in all circumstances and at all places without a serious risk to one’s career, life or limbs?

By right to speech, I do not mean idle gossip or the talks, which go on privately between friends in a bus criticizing the Government or other authorities. If one is working in a Government department, can he tell his boss that he is wrong in his thinking or he is favoring a particular company or writing "Please speak" or "Please discuss" in the marginalia of a file and then not discussing the matter, citing pre-occupation with more serious problems? One may do so but at grave risk to his career.

He may not get his long-awaited promotion. The same is true even for public sector and private companies. No one dare tell the "Dada" of the street that he is wrong or he is doing illegal or immoral things. If he does, the "Dada" may break his leg or cut his hands.

No one can tell a leader who is delivering a speech that whatever he is saying is just plain nonsense and that he had not fulfilled his election promises because if one does so, he will be badly beaten up. S.K. Dubey exercised this right and wrote to the Prime Minister’s Secretariat against frauds. He lost his life.

Many were witnesses to the Fodder Scam. Perhaps, they wanted to speak but they can no longer do so because they are dead. Sometimes, even a son cannot speak against his parents and tell them that they are doing the wrong thing. He would be beaten up.

Similarly, if an old and helpless parent wanted to say something against his son or daughter-in-law, he would be humiliated. If a daughter-in-law speaks against her mother-in-law and tells her she cannot bring more dowries and that dowry demanding is illegal, she may have to suffer death or miserable life. This is not only true to India but other countries of the world as well.

Socrates spoke to his followers and was made to drink poison. Mansoor asserted his right to speak but was hanged. There are many and numerous examples, which suggest that only powerful people can speak and the right to speech cannot be guaranteed but it has to be earned through one’s boldness.

This article of mine highlights certain times in life when you want a certain thing but do not get it easily. Some of mine relate to:

1. When you arrive in railway station way ahead of schedule, you will find the train will arrive late by a few hours.

2. When you arrive just a few minutes late, you find the train has already left.

3. When you arrive on time and also find the train on time and feel most lucky, the train would invariably be held up in between for long time ading to your frustration.

4.When you arrive on time and also the train is ontime, only problem you wont get space to squeeze into the compartment!

5. It rains heavily and you take the umbrella, you will find that within a few minutes, the sun shines with out a trace of rain!

6. OK, it shines and you dont take the umbrella, you will find there is a heavy downpour just as you put on your best clothes.

7.When you read a film review, the critics say it is bad but you feel it should be good and take a risk of going to the theater, you find many likeminded people have the same reasoning and you dont get your tickets!

8. Normally you dont get a good night’s sleep and you are confident you can catch the next day’s early flight. You find you have experienced the best night sleep you ever had and miss your schedule!

9. After a tiring day in office, you reach your home and want to relax under the fan, well you guessed it, power is not there in the house and you continue to stink!

10. Every day the morning paper is dropped early at house, but today there is an important news you want desperately to read, and for unknown reasons the morning paper does not arrive at all!

Readers can add their own experiences!
