Matrimonial bollocks

Marriages are made in heaven. BOLLOCKS!! As far as I am concerned marriages are made on this God damned earth by jobless old people who's only aim in life is to get everyone in the world married!
"Oh!! Your daughter is almost on the verge of finishing her college. Have you thought of getting her married?" No bitch. But I guess you can do with a second one to savor your appetite!

"Your daughter is done with her college. She's landed a job! Start looking for a suitable match." Match? You think anyone can match me? Guess you donated your brain when you opened a marriage bureau!

"She's getting old. Get her married." I mean like, FUCK OFF! I can nail any one I want 20 years from now. You think about the sorry excuse called your life!!

Make no mistake about this one. I am not narrating my story. This is the common and most standard observation! Indian society runs on the strong foundation of "Your business is my business." But sadly for people who live their life by this principle, there are a lot of GenX free spirits who would like to spit on your faces but still let you have an opinion. Not coz they think you are right. But coz they believe that opinions are like ass holes, every ones gotta have one! (This line is truly an epic.. bless the soul who came up with it!!)

"Progressive society" is an illusion. "Women empowerment" is a joke. I don't wanna sound offensive but this is the truth. How can you call a society progressive if women are judged by their most personal choices? No eyebrows are raised when a man decides to settle down late. He was concentrating on his career. Such a wise move, they say. Maintain the same situation, change the gender and check out for the offensive reactions. It's a bad move. How can she put her career before her family? they say. So I guess I need not explain as to why the so called "woman empowerment" goes down the drain.

I guess once you are over 50 and you see a young spirit, happy, smiling, full of life you get diabolic and think, "So much happiness? What has she done to deserve it? I never lived like that. Why should she? Lets curb her freedom!" I could almost swear these are the actual thoughts running behind all the "aunties" roaming your streets and patting your cheeks in every function they run into you! At this point I can't decide what should scare me more - a cockroach looking at me with its antennas raised or this evil thoughts running in ultra narrow minds!

It is a given, that anybody who doesn't live by the society rules is an outcast. An unmarried woman above 30 is looked at with suspicious eyes.

"Wonder why she is still single.", "Oh dear God! Her poor parents! What has she put them through?","How will she have kids if she doesn't get married!" And the all time favorite line of society - "There must be something wrong with her."

You know what, you repulsive dweebs she's single coz she loves it that way. She rather put her parents through few more years of wait than ruin her life, in turn causing them irreparable damage. And guess they changed the syllabus when we were studying. Coz from what I read in my books, marriage has nothing to do with "starting a family". (yeah.. an uppercut punch ass holes.. IN YOUR FACE!) Finally, yes there is something wrong with her. Something, that given your intellect, is far from your comprehension. She wants to live, she wants to breathe, she wants to fight her own battles. She needs no one to protect her, she wants to own whatever she does. She knows her power and wants to use it. She doesn't mean to offend anyone but she would fight any cause that dares to capture her soul for she knows losing her life is easier than losing her free spirit.

P.S : There is no crime more hideous than caging a free spirit.
