g_b Learn to Be A Good Listener

 Learn To Be A Good Listener


If you wish to grow in the spirit of understanding, you must let the other
person talk and prove his point to his satisfaction. Do not interrupt him,
while he is talking. You know how exasperated you become when someone
interrupts you, while you are trying to prove a point. At committee
meetings, these words have been uttered quite often:- But let me finish!

Listen more, talk less. You are made to listen. That is why you have been
given only one mouth and two ears. If we were meant to talk more and listen
less, we would have been given only one ear, right in front, and two mouths
on the two sides. How funny we would look! And, mind you, there is no door
with which to close the ears: they are always open. Before a word can be
spoken, it has to cross two fences - two rows of teeth and two lips.
Therefore, think twice before you talk. Never forget that of the unspoken
word, you are a master, of the spoken  word, you are a slave. Words, once
spoken, cannot be got back.

A villager came to a town, to visit some of his relatives. In villages, till
today, they cleanse their teeth with wooden sticks. When he got up in the
morning, the villager asked for one. They told him that in the cities they
had only toothpaste tubes. The villager had never handled a toothpaste tube.
As he squeezed it, out flowed a foot-long strip of toothpaste. He was taken
aback. Is there a way to sending the toothpaste back into the tube? he
asked. They said to him:- No way! Once the paste has come out, it cannot be
sent in! Likewise, words which have been spoken cannot be sent in.

Be a good listener. Therefore, listen not only with the ears, but also with
the heart. Better than talking is listening. And better than listening is to
enter the silence within.

The great woman-saint of South India, Avvaiyar, prayed:- O God, what is
happening to me? I keep on talking and talking, as though there were mouths
all over my body! When shall I cease from doing this? When shall I enter
into the silence within?

SOUTHERN NEWS - ANDHRA PRADESH December 10, 2004
 
 
 

Men swap and sell, with wives' due permission
Friday December 10 2004 08:25 IST 
KADAPA: It's a primitive practice that can put any Hollywood (or Bollywood!) film on wife swapping to shame.

The men belonging to ``Pinchapuri'' sect of Yerukala community in the district can't make do with just one wife. Bigamy, even polygamy, is common in this sect. And if you thought that's the end of the story, well, the plot has only begun.

For this Pinchapuri man, having a bevy of wives (sometimes up to five) strutting around him can get boring over time. Once he thinks he's had enough of his wife, he sells her. However, if the woman does not like the buyer, she can say no and the deal is off. So much for Women's Lib!

As is the case with any other `product', the tariff differs here too. The more beautiful and youthful the woman, the higher the price. So, a not-so-good-looking woman, warts and all, easily loses her soon-to-be-ex-husband to a `superior' rival.

Wonder if it's wife-swapping or wife-shopping? A mingled sense of confusion and utter disgust hits when Subbaiah says: ``I sold my first wife for Rs.18, 000 only because she wasn't that good-looking. But, I shelled out Rs.58, 000 to buy my two other wives.''

Done deal? Not yet. He's now planning to sell one of the two, and buy another.

Like him, almost all Pinchapuri men indulge in this orgy. The women don't mind being herded along either. After all, that's the only life they know. 

But the way the sect rationalises this trade sends the intrigue-o-meter spinning. Wife shopping is neither a crime nor a taboo for the 5,000-odd community people. In fact, it's their way of preventing extra-marital affairs. Does that mean, the men of Sabari Colony near Jammalamadugu who have at least five wives, are that much more honest?

``If a man likes someone else's wife, and she reciprocates, we allow them to become husband and wife after the deal is through. This eliminates extra-marital affairs. The selling occurs in the presence of mediators and the caste headman only after the woman gives her consent. If she says no, the deal is off,'' Subbaiah explains.

The sect has thought about posterity too. The children live with their mother and the stepfather, but the biological father is their rightful `owner'.

In reality, however, once a man sells his wife, he doesn't give two hoots for his children. Never a burden on their parents, these children take to begging, sometimes at 5-6 years, to feed their elders. The teenagers rear pigs or help their parents make broomsticks, the age-old profession of the sect. 

They travel to Mumbai, Pune and Bangalore to sell the artistic goods and earn a handsome income. The community is spread over Jammalamadugu, Mydukur, Badvel and Porumamilla in the district. 

While the women and children work hard, the men splurge on wife shopping or alcohol. This goes on despite the fact that they live in small huts, lack proper clothing and even food.

How do these `replaceable commodities' feel? ``We have a say. The deal is through only when we give our consent. There is no coercion,'' Laxmamma, who was bought by Sreeramulu, tells this website’s newspaper. For the record: Sreeramulu has three wives.

Do they care for society's criticism, if at all? Sreeramulu strikes back: ``Who cares? We are free and independent.''

g_b To save wife, man marries her lesbian 'lover'

To save wife, man marries her 'lover'

Autorickshaw driver Venu not only ignored conservative Kerala but also
prevented his wife from adding to lesbian suicides in the state

RAJEEV P.I.

Posted online: Saturday, December 11, 2004 at 0019 hours IST

KOCHI, DECEMBER 10: It was probably the most difficult decision that
40-year-old Venu, an autorickshaw driver in Aroor near here, had to
take in his life. And by doing so, he not only thumbed his nose at
conservative Kerala but also prevented his wife from adding to the
lesbian suicide statistics in the state.

Venu ended up with two wives, who had been involved in a relationship
with each other.

The father of two, who had been married to 26-year-old Mangala for
about 10 years now, had to tie the knot with a 23-year-old woman,
Ramlath, in the Guruvayoor temple last week.

Mangala, allegedly involved in a relationship with Ramlath for about
10 years, threatened to commit suicide if she could not have the
latter, who was unmarried, to live with them in their house, sources
said.

Mangala and Ramlath work for a local financier, and according to
police, the latter was a regular visitor at Mangala's home for many
years. ''Mangala wanted to keep both Venu and Ramlath, and Venu agreed
to bring Ramlath in as a wife,'' the police said.

Soon after the marriage, Ramlath's family lodged a complaint saying
she was missing. Venu later left Aroor with his wives and children for
an unknown place.

With its strait-jacketed conservatism, records say at least 21
lesbians had killed themselves in the state during the six years from
1995 to 2001, unable to cope with the social stigma.

Recently, two ''self-confessed lesbians'', Unnimaya (23) and Sheela
(21), ran away from their village near Thiruvananthapuram to Wayanad,
where they took up odd jobs for a living.

They lived there under changed identities till a local magazine wrote
about them and blew their cover. The locals managed to reach just in
time to save them from killing themselves.

2004-12-12 Thread Rajeev



Gay Movie 

Went to a gay movie 
Just shallow and foolish 
Left me asking, why do we do this 

A film about my life, screen play depicting me 
Buff men pumped and pretty, cultured educated and witty 
Up to the last minute, on decorating fashion and cooking 

My friends are all gay, so I know of what I say 
None talk like that, loud foolish and nasal 
Most brave survivors, seeking some small happiness 

Why be defined, a scripted stereotype 
Pandering acceptance, they're not going to give 
Our real diversity is, we're not any different 

Gay's not a new breed, just the guy over there 
No obvious difference, no discernible flaws 
Who accepts in himself that, he loves other men 

Don't make me a manic, Manhattan razor tongued diva 
Being me is hard enough, on our precious little ground 
Instead make me a gay movie, where gay is only incidental

g_b Gay leaders signal split over strategy

2004-12-12 Thread gaybombay


Gay leaders signal split over strategy
Tom Musbach, PlanetOut Network
published Friday, December 10, 2004 
 
In a letter to Congress on Thursday, several prominent LGBT leaders
distanced themselves from the nation's largest gay rights group
because it reportedly plans to shift its strategy to include political
bargaining and easing up on the push for equal marriage rights.

The catalyst for the apparent public split was a New York Times
article, published Thursday, that described how Human Rights Campaign
(HRC) leaders plan to moderate their goals in response to the
widespread victory last month of anti-gay initiatives in 11 states to
restrict marriage rights.

One of the HRC proposals, according to the Times, was to consider
supporting President Bush's plan to partly privatize Social Security
in exchange for a guarantee that gay partners would receive benefits
under the program.

In addition, the Times piece suggested that HRC leaders plan to adopt
a more controlled strategy that places less emphasis on legalizing
same-sex marriage and more on changing minds through personal
relationships.

The reported shifts got a quick reaction from some LGBT leaders, who
wrote to the people HRC spends most of its time lobbying: U.S.
representatives and senators.

Although the struggle for freedom can be difficult and painful for
those without full equality, it would be an historic mistake to grow
tired of the battle or surrender basic rights and equality in order to
make the road easier, the group of more than 30 leaders wrote in the
letter, titled Where We Stand.


We will not sacrifice our rights -- or the rights of others, like
senior citizens -- on the altar of political expediency, they said,
referring to the reported Social Security deal.

The signers include Democratic strategist and fund-raiser David
Mixner, philanthropist David Bohnett and leaders of several national
LGBT organizations, including the National Center for Lesbian Rights
(NCLR), the National Black Justice Coalition, Servicemembers Legal
Defense Network, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force (NGLTF),
DignityUSA and Seniors in a Gay Environment (SAGE).

The HRC, however, has publicly disputed Thursday's article in the
Times, calling it inaccurate and incomplete in its depiction of
the agency's plans.

There will be no retreat or compromise in the pursuit of full
equality for LGBT Americans, including our right to marry, protect our
families and be free from discrimination at work, the group said in a
prepared statement.

The group also said it has not taken a position on the issue of
privatizing Social Security.

Kate Kendell, executive director of the San Francisco-based NCLR, said
she signed the letter in part to counter what she felt were false
perceptions stemming from the Nov. 2 general election.

In light of continued questions about whether 'the movement' is
moving too quickly, she added, I felt we needed to communicate
directly with policymakers as they considered the lives of gay people
in legislation.

Kendell said her decision to sign was completely separate from the
Times report, which she doubted was entirely accurate.

Author Betty Berzon, a psychotherapist and columnist for PlanetOut,
said she signed the letter to Congress to prevent a narrowing of the
LGBT community's focus.

Of course gay rights strategy should be reassessed now -- that is
healthy -- but it doesn't have to be either-or: working for same-sex
marriage or focusing on just helping the American family know us
better, she told the PlanetOut Network. They are essentially
interrelated, and both continue to deserve our best efforts.

The public disagreement among leaders follows the sudden announcement
last week that HRC's former leader, Cheryl Jacques, was departing
after less than a year on the job.

Thursday's letter was also signed by Jeff Soukup, chief financial
officer of PlanetOut Inc. For the complete letter and list of signers,
go to the NGLTF site.

A great soul is no more in our midst, but the essence
of MS lives in us forever.

MS as a person, as a singer, as a personality... in
all her facets never ceased to touch lives and hearts.

She was an inspiration (I am from Chennai, and love,
sing carnatic music). She was also a family friend,
practically family...

Her music was pure, needed no language to appreciate,
needed no knowledge to appreciate. It was soulful and
straight from the heart to the heart.

A legend who made everyone realize the beauty of music
lies in emotion.

A fact that many may not know is that she and her
husband had donated most of their property (running to
the tune of crores) to charity. She also did
tremendous service by singing an astounding number of
charity concerts.

God bless her soul.

I was over at her funeral today... A beautiful fact is
that even in death, her face had the rapture of one
singing in unison with the divine.

Gay newlyweds divorcing 

December 12, 2004


BY JENNIFER PETER 
BOSTON -- Less than seven months after same-sex couples began tying
the knot in Massachusetts, the state is seeing its first gay divorces.

Newlyweds seeking to renounce the vows they so recently took have been
trickling into probate courts across the state, filling out obsolete
forms that still read ''husband'' and ''wife.''

Josh Friedes, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Freedom to Marry
Coalition, said the rapid divorces are no cause for concern.

''It would be wonderful if every marriage lasted until a couple lived
to a ripe old age, but unfortunately we know from our heterosexual
peers that all too often there are irreconcilable differences, and for
these couples, divorce is often the most humane option,'' Friedes
said.

Exactly how many same-sex couples seek divorces is not clear.

Cats center of custody battle



The first gay divorce case in Suffolk County, which includes Boston,
was filed Wednesday by a male couple who exchanged vows May 22, five
days after same-sex marriage was legalized.

One partner was a 33-year-old religious educator from Boston, the
other a 39-year-old professor based in Washington. The hardest part of
the settlement seemed to be custody of their three cats, who will live
exclusively with the professor.

Opponents of gay marriage said the divorces, occurring so soon,
confirm gay couples are not equipped for marriage. ''We're not
surprised,'' said Kris Mineau of the Massachusetts Family Institute.
''Particularly among male homosexuals, the promiscuity is just
phenomenal.''

With the U.S. divorce rate hovering near 50 percent, gay rights
advocates dismissed such arguments. ''That's a cheap shot,'' attorney
Mary Bonauto said.

Re: g_b M.S Subbulaxmi

2004-12-12 Thread delhi guy


MS Subbulaxmi was my favourite singer too. She was
very versatile and she sang some bengali Rabindra
snageet too. 

What makes me sad that such a singer who
has gone to yester years, didnt even find a full
coverage in the newspapers. There was just a small
article on her. 

I wait for the time when we will learn to respect and
love our heritage and feel proud of what we are
and not because it is recognised by the western
society.

somu

while i agree with  your sentiments on M.S, i do not agree that newspapers on 
Sundaydid not give the attention it should have. please understand that her 
death was late in the night, almost midnight . by then , most papers have been 
put to press, especially sunday editions. the indian express had an article on 
second page with a small blurb on page one

yes, we could do with more MS articles. the electronic media  today was very 
skcetchy about M.S's passing away.  zee news had a so called insider report on 
DPS school sex scandal.

the trend to tittilate and  print rubbish on page one is  something that is 
very obviousin newspapers across india, with rare exceptions. 

but then, sometimes, i wonder who are we to judge that after all? if the 
readers want ro read such stufft so be it. if the  majority readers want bombay 
times and delhi times and not the main paper, so be it. 

someo would naturally ask, whether the reader really want that?


may be the papers will make amends  on M.S tommmorrow. may be. 

regards

moderator

g_b Gay Theme Movie Sweeps Indonesia Festival Awards

2004-12-12 Thread gaybombay


Gay Theme Movie Sweeps Indonesia Festival Awards

Sat Dec 11,11:27 PM ET   

JAKARTA (Reuters) - A gay-theme movie took best film honors and most
of the acting awards at the Indonesian Film Festival, the first in the
world's largest Muslim nation for 12 years, the Jakarta Post reported
on Sunday.

The actors who played the gay couple won for best actor and best
supporting actor in the movie Arisan!, a satirical comedy mocking
the life of the small super-rich set in the nation's capital and
tackling the taboo subject of homosexuality.

Scenes that helped win the movie recognition included an aerial shot
of oral sex in a public toilet and the gay couple kissing.

The festival's revival after a hiatus of more than a decade comes as
local film production is picking up after faltering in the early 1990s
due to the stranglehold of Hollywood movies in local theaters.


Nominations for this year's awards spanned 2000-2004. Just one film
was released in 2000 while 31 were made in the past two years, the
report said.
