[QUOTE="Luckysingh, post: 161032, member: 16886"] Gurfateh If you read my post with care, you may notice the message I was trying to give was one of poking fun at us males. Men do, as a majority feel that they are superior to women. I was trying to state that this ignorant attitude is simply what it says- ignorant. The fact is without women majority of us would be completely lost. This is what makes men different, they are not capable in many capacities as much as women. Its sad though that gender predjudice still goes on to this day even in sikhism. Yes, I know many will try to clarify this insisting we are the fairest faith. Yes, we are supposed to be,but in reality in the background this predjudice still goes on. Like I say, most us men are too ignorant to notice, but the women DO feel it but just put up and get on with it. Recently a male friend of mine got married. I won't mention where, which country etc for his deserved privacy. He is probably one of the most fairest characters on this planet. He did though cause quite a bit of controversy in deliberation. 1st he decided to marry outside his cast-( into a so called lower caste) much to the anger of elders. He was proud of this example he felt he should set just as a wake up call for his elders. 2ndly was the actual ceremony. Now, I believe the rehat maryada states that the man should lead in the process of the lama(pherei). He felt this as being sexist. Most of us actually just accept it with ignorance I suppose. Again, upsetting the elders and Giani-no doubt, the couple actually took it in turns to lead!! So, 2 lama with the man leading and 2 with the woman leading- fair enough, I say. You can imagine the talk, I heard it all, from comments like it's not valid,its illegal,against sikhi, its a circus, the girl is meant to follow as she settles in his house ( even though, they had a house where only the 2 of them would both move together)......blah blah.....-I heard it all. But, still many could only still give the couple nothing but praise and credit. If only there were more people like this, that could bring such issues to attention. I personally did not want to mention this event as a matter of respect. So, I would be even more grateful if I don't read comments of whether the couples decision was right or wrong- NO OPINIONS please. For the sake of the couples privacy I wouldn't want a further online issue. Most people in the community were a bit shocked at first, but I feel they do somewhat applaud these actions. When I spoke to him last he claimed that they had no regrets whatsoever and he even wishes for a daughter to be their first child so that he can distribute ladhu and celebrate lohri- another lesson for us to learn, as this is more commonly done with birth of boys.
