This reminds me of a very recent controvesy that happend with Vidya balan starrer movie "The dirty Picture" Inspite of this movie winning a Nationa Award, it was refrained from being shown of televions on a prime time slot. Though Hypocrisy still exists in our soicety, but with the Society becoming more open; parents becoming more aware towards importance of sex education for their kids; openness of society towards homosexuality, and movies like Vicky donor and the dirty Picture winning National awards, i think the wind is blowing in the right direction.Jiggyasahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12410362284891912097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-64349568951870368742013-07-10T06:34:02.416+05:302013-07-10T06:34:02.416+05:30as you said let's just hope all this does not ...as you said let's just hope all this does not take over the real romance :) :)... and really there was an international kiss day? :P :P SuKupedia ™ :) :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09453745330932633801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-10574771256791294372013-07-09T21:15:14.372+05:302013-07-09T21:15:14.372+05:30@ SG two people kissing lip to lip is becoming mor...@ SG two people kissing lip to lip is becoming more and more common these days - I used to be very shocked but I am trying to open my mind to these things. <br /><br />@ Anil, love finds expression in different ways, sometimes people just follow conventions, peer pressure and media suggestions and that is how the kiss has found its way out into the public domain I guess- otherwise this land of Kamasutra had negated its existence in those areas.

Kalpana and Ani, Devika Rani was far ahead of her times as were many others like Ismat Chughtai who wrote about homosexuality in those day.Meera Sundararajanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15584671517551652378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-13689528568845654482013-07-09T11:05:55.148+05:302013-07-09T11:05:55.148+05:30Would be consigned as a scandalous post until a de...Would be consigned as a scandalous post until a decade ago by the self acclaimed puritans.<br /><br />Well all things in life seem to be having exclusive days. This Kissing day is a revelation to me.<br />Indeed as you mentioned cultures have their own ways of expression- of feelings.And kiss seem to be the universal, either in public and locking lips - in private ( in some societies).<br /><br />It is the conventions and tradition that determine the matter.<br />Even a simple pat can evoke as much empathy, love as kiss would.<br /><br />As the country western song goes, "Your kisses are sweeter than wine",. What better way to express love in romance!<br />anilkurup59https://www.blogger.com/profile/07961961217418715354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-6163495009994756042013-07-09T10:33:00.938+05:302013-07-09T10:33:00.938+05:30Devika Rani did a bold kissing scene,along with he...Devika Rani did a bold kissing scene,along with her husband during the Black and White era. Thereafter it went snip-snip under the censor board scissors. I feel those flowers and the couples wiping their lips was too disgusting and not lesser 'embarrassing' if we consider our teenage acknowledging that these happen, was a taboo.<br /><br />That was a generation who, even when in love would save the first kiss for the wedding night. "Bou-Bhaat er poorei mookh etho korbo" :) :) <br /><br />And that was the time when if a kiss happended, a person would actually feel that with the sealing of lips, the relation is sealed and they are destined to be together, which was NOT NECESSARILY correct ad this caused a lot many heart break.<br /><br />I am happy we are taking this more naturally with our younger ones.<br /><br />Well, I was not aware of the existence of an International Kissing Day. Belated happy Kissing day to all and it is not too late t kiss..<br /><br />aninditahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05844592244486340198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-4666657529669180942013-07-09T00:15:30.128+05:302013-07-09T00:15:30.128+05:30I was not even aware that such a day existed.
