Well I said awakening .... anyway you have funny english saying you need a brake...LOL That is the difference between you and me dear... you say education is necessary where as awakening.. cause I have seen the level of discrimination is not less in the educated people and not more in the illetrate. Yeah lots of village don`t have tap which bring water into their home...but tell me how many villages are there where women has to walk 4 miles to fetch water...don`t exaggerate the picture and for your kind information if they have to walk 4 miles then it will be the male who will be fetching water not female okay. And as for saying that even 12 years old knows all these facts... that is the point my dear... I don`t believe and act like 12 year old. I have been there ....lived with them...seen the things with my own eyes. Infact I am not surprise when you talk like this over here...cause back then I had the same interpretation...but when you live with them.. then you will know the good and bad points. Now you are analyzing by being isolated from the society you want to change depending upon the secondary data. What about moving inside and then analyse it. Development is very easy word to say... and yeah its very easy also to blame others also. As far as me saying nobody in Nepal had yet died of starvation, do I need to check the data. can you show me one person who died because he didn`t have foods to eat unlike the cases of some other countries like sudan and other that we see in News. I don`t mean that they have more to eat.. Anyway lets not talk about who is right and who is wrong ... that will prove nothing. It would have great thing to you instead of taking all the things that we have mentioned as your pride consider those suggestion for your action. But I am sure you won`t do that. No matter how long you have been in US and how much you consider yourself educated I know one thing that you have no thirst to educate yourself. You talk about the social revolution... development and blah blah... but you don`t want to fit into their shoes. How can you say that those things that you have seen with your eyes are only the best things. Why not consider some one else`s view too. or are you afraid of growing. Development is not bad and no body will stand against you...but it has to be integrated one.. it has to be in the correct phase. Even if I consider your example like women has to walk 4 miles to get water... then what your plan has to be ... to provide the water in such a way that they don`t need to waste their energy and time nope... but what help it will be if you talk about the womens right or sex education there. Can you see the point that I am talking about. And lastly tell me one thing do you think that if every wife of Nepal stand against their husband your mission will be complete. They will be equal. Being Husband and wife is not about counting the differences, protesting about each other, it should be more about love. The problem of you is like you are happy to see someone else`s wife standing for protest. where as I am happy to see they are living together despite of differences. And as for understanding wife and mom... what about you.. have you understood your hubby and you dad completely???
