COMMENT: Who is fit to pronounce on consensual sex ? In arranged marriages, do you honestly believe that it is consensual sex as per the letter? In marriages where couples court, consummating on the wedding bed, the woman might have reservations, or indeed the man might have reservations.....boom the show goes on ! Strictly following the 'western mode' of consensual sex is asking for trouble ? She winked yes, but meant no ? He gave a come hither glance and then she went berserk? The 'bottom line' as far as Indians are concerned, is that marriage has to take place. It is only when this does not happen that all hell and fury breaks ! Am I right ? Or is there a crack in my assumptions? -- DEV BOREM KORUM. Gabe Menezes. London, England
