Here is a bit notice I received last day. From a local caterer, the notice is quite "funny". See the language ! If the caterer is not good at English, atleast the DTP operator must have helped him make it good. No one expects a "Shakespearean language', but it must be sensible atleast. This happens at a place where we claim we are the most educated !
Any attempt for suicide is a crime. The MP from AP, Sri. K C R, is on a suicide attempt. It's certainly a suicide attempt, for what ever reason he is for ! Why is that our "law enforcers" and the Government silent ? ( I know, that's politics ! ) Whatever 'politics' he is engaged in, he should be refrained from such acts of 'suicide'.
I feel irritated ! An author, Father JJ Pallath ( must be a Keralite ) wrote the following nasty text in his essay. I've given the link below. This perverted 'father' abuses Namboothiris, and the whole of Keralites .
WOMEN AND CASTE DISCRIMINATION: The Namboothiri-Dominated Period of Kerala Culture and Society: The Oppression of Women and the Misuse of Religious Authority - Part 2
Fr. J. J. Pallath [Ed. Note: This is the second in our two-part series by Fr. J. J. Pallath about the Namboothiris, the Brahmins of the Indian state of Kerala. The first part was published in the May 2002 issue of Human Rights SOLIDARITY.] “ 'The Malayalees' psyche of double standards is all-pervasive. ' Care for Outward Appearance
The Malayalees' psyche of double standards is all-pervasive. The Malayalees take extra care in being externally clean in their dressing and housing. Kerala hotels are the only ones in the country where cooking is done behind a curtain without being noticed by the customers. We know though that the cooking is done in the most unhygienic manner. However, the facade of the hotel looks grand and neat. The same applies to latrines; for at home and in public, the Malayalees give little care in keeping their toilet clean and neat, but their houses are the most modern palaces. In short, Malayalees look externally well dressed, but their undergarments are dirty and stinking.
The guilt that they were exploiting the lower castes seemed to have continued to prick their conscience though, and the Namboothiris appear to have compensated for it by being externally clean through ritual baths and wearing white clothes as the practice of taking a bath both in the morning and evening and wearing predominantly white dress is still considered to be a Malayalee characteristic.
“
I wonder how many did Fr.Pallath try before writing like this on Keralites stinky undergarments ?
