    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Kanwardeep ji I personally havent accused all Turbaned men of abuse, in my post I stated that it was their own reasons for there choice, niether have I said that all white boys are perfect husbands. All my posts in Kaur power had nothing to do with hair only the treatment these girls have...

    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Kanwardeep ji I gave you the reasons why those kaurs chose clean shaven men. Seems its hard for you to understand, I'll explain it other way. If when you are growing up a dog of a particular breed is aggressive towards you and bites you, when you are old enough to get your own would you go out...

    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Re: Kaur Power Kanwardeep ji No one has said they are worse than others, they just want the right to choose their live partners, nor have i said the majority of ladies dont like facial hair, but if you want prove that abuse is rife in asian cultures including Sikhi then have a look at the...

    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Re: Kaur Power Kanwardeep ji They arent just lame excuses. Just because they chose to try to make something of their lives doesnt mean they turned their backs on Sikhism, Its the other way round its the Sikh families and the Sikh community that turn their backs on the Girls/Boys. Because they...

    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Karwandeep ji I wasnt trying to paint all Turbaned Sikhs with the same brush, Just stating the reasons given to me by the Kaurs that I know, Reasons why they have chosen shaven men. Traditional dress to them means traditional behaviour. I know many good turbaned Sikhs in fact all of the Sikhs I...

    Are We Making Lame Excuses?

    Harbansj24 ji In responce to your answer to why girls are dropping the name Kaur and not wanting men with turbans. From the few that i know their reasons are not for what you have said it is because they associate the title and turban as symbols of opression. They fear that the majority of Sikh...

    Kaur Power

    Kanwardeeep Ji The first line of my post refers to both sex's. As for Indian culture wasnt that what Guru jis tried to change. Its up to the people who are at the top of our religion to stand up and say its wrong for both sex's to be forced into any thing against their will, including wearing a...

    Kaur Power

    Jasvinders Fight isnt just about domestic violence. Its about cultural habits from Asia, Its about the abuse both men and women suffer when they refuse an arranged marriage. her book tells how they are locked up, beaten and even murdered if they refuse. If they run away they are disowned, some...

    Kaur Power

    Mai ji I too am wrong many times and have to apolagise, I see the apology as a way of saying Ive learnt something new and thank you. And may I thank you as Ive learnt many things from yourself, Especially how to be more Humble. Please try and read Jasvinders books they will have you sobbing...

    Kaur Power

    mai ji Accepted. I apolagise if I came across a bit harsh but She is truly a great lady that the kaurs should be proud of. Her work is an inspiration to any one who wishes to help fight the injustices against women.

    Kaur Power

    you should read Jasvinders second book "Daughters of shame" before citing her as a distraction, She is years ahead of you on the subject of domestic violence. The list you wish to create is already being fought by someone who in my mind is a real Sikh, someone who fights oppression and gives...

    Humans As Meat-Eaters: Some Perspectives From Science

    Sorry Satyaban ji but it is not the cows that eat to much, drink to much nor is flatulence destroying the air we breath, it is us humans who are the ones eating/ drinking to much and it is us that are destroying the earth. As for the reason to keep them and to drink their milk or eat their meat...
