A story of rape amidst consensual sex...

I have written in the past on rape cases and how they are lowering the mentality of Indians as well as global citizens.
However, I am once again broaching up this topic for a fresh news report has arrived in, of a pilot raping an air hostess who was living with him for past some time now.

Now the lady says that the guy had promised to marry her, hence she moved in with him, hence the sex was probably now a rape. This case amuses me to the core. A 22 year old woman, says that for 2 years this man was promising her marriage, and that she believed him and that probably (since rape charges have been filed) had sex with him, now says all that was a rape?
How is that possible? The fact that amuses me the most is the open mockery of women empowerment in India. Liberal working Indian women, do not hesitate to slap rape charges on any guy who refuses to marry them.

If the girl would have been a poor one, probably disadvantaged by illiteracy or poverty, I would have supported the woman's cause. Yes, this is India, and their have been cases that undue advantage of females have been reported. But we are not talking about a rural woman, bound by compulsions or disadvantages. We have here, an independent girl, both financially and socially.
Any guy can rape a woman, sure, but cannot force a modern independent girl (who according to my estimates must be earning a decent salary ) to stay with him, in his bedroom for a year or more. The whole idea seems hilarious. Especially when you add the point that he shall marry you. For 2 years he did not marry you as he had proposed, then move out. Get some life, start over.

Now the most hilarious aspect of the story. The guy did 2 things
1) He clearly wanted her out of his house.
2) He threatened to kill her later. Or throw acid on her, if she left the house.

Now, if I would have managed to throw the girl out of my house, why should I threaten her for life? And if I did not want the girl in the house, then how can I be the rapist?
Anyway, that would have been me. Perhaps the guy's theory would have been the same.

To me, this case is a perfect presentation of modern Indian women empowerment thing. Perhaps the guy got a change of mind or heart. The love he once had, probably diminished. Or maybe he was just one of the many scoundrels looking for sex (and got some) in which case, the girl should be classified as a fool.

So India goes about shouting against the accused. His photos splashed over all the media. No effort was spared to malign him. And modern Indian women empowerment shall win. For what these ladies cannot get, they slap absurd charges on men.

As for me, I will congratulate the brave man. Who did not marry the girl, and made her life hell afterward, as he was not ready. He did not buckle under the marriage pressure and took his time to take a good decision. I think, we should all learn something from him. If unsure, take your time. Even if you want to get married and have some doubts, linger on, till all are clear.

Learning from Gardening

While composing status messages, just for fun, I simply jot down anything random that comes to my mind at the moment. Here is the latest FB message i posted few seconds ago. Tushar Mangl learns a lot from his gardening routine. Even when his plants die, he simply feels bad and then goes about to plan for new plants. Mostly because an empty space does not look that good. That is life for you. People will always go away from your life, at one point or another. But you cannot always leave the places vacan t. New plants have to be placed. Optimism has to exist for new flowers to bloom, new leaves to grow. Now, FB only gives me 422 characters to say my point. But my dear blogger, a companion of several years gives me much better platform to elaborate my thoughts. You see, in a flower bed I maintain near stairs of my house I had planted bougainvillea plants on either sides of the bed. As fate would have it, and given my nature of getting too attached to livi...

A suggestion to break the loop of guilt, isolation, and emotional burnout?

Caught in a guilt spiral, isolating quietly, and wondering why rest doesn’t heal you? You’re not lazy—you’re carrying layers of unprocessed emotion and spiritual exhaustion. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reset. Let’s explore why you still feel stuck despite good intentions, and discover rituals, reflections, and real reconnection to help you come home to yourself. First Published on 20/06/2008 14:30 Second edition Published on 04/07/2025 12:51 Why do you keep spiraling despite good intentions? Let me ask you this. Have you ever written out a self-care plan so perfectly, maybe in a brand-new notebook—drink more water, meditate, go to therapy—and yet by day three you’re numbly binge-scrolling, wondering what’s broken now ? Yeah. Same. We don’t spiral because we’re undisciplined or lazy. We spiral because the emotional weight we’re carrying goes deeper than we admit. It's not about a missed workout or failing to reply to that one text. It's the inner tug-of...

Cutting people off isn’t strength—It is a trauma response

Your ability to cut people off and self-isolate is not a skill you should be proud of—It is a trauma response Cutting people off and self-isolating may feel like a protective shield, but it is often rooted in unresolved or unhealed trauma and an inability to depend on others. While these behaviors seem like self-preservation, they end up reinforcing isolation and blocking meaningful connections. Confronting these patterns, seeking therapy, and nurturing supportive relationships can help break this unhealthy cycle. Plus, a simple act like planting a jasmine plant can symbolise the start of your journey towards emotional healing. Why do we cut people off and isolate? If you’re someone who prides themselves on “cutting people off” or keeping a tight circle, you might believe it’s a skill—a way to protect yourself from betrayal, hurt, or unnecessary drama. I get it. I’ve been there, too. But here’s the thing: this ability to isolate yourself is not as empowering as it may seem. In fact, i...
