cupid versus kamdev

Are you struck by the depth of love or the lust of sex? Are you the janam-janam ka saathi types? Welcome people to India the land of uhmm…sex and love (kamdev is the god of sex by the way).

We have got from our “rich cultural heritage” Kamdev but we put love above sex…oh the meeting of two souls. We are love struck after all. We are groping in the corners, drooling over multiple ‘soul-mates’ but hey we are in love don’t insult ‘it’.

We detest Valentines Day, it’s not our culture. It is symbolized by the cupid. But we are surely not cupid struck are we? Yes we definitely have one-night stands and the practice of getting-to-know-each-other-better. Sitting under vanilla skies we discuss life and its various aspects(verbally and uhmm…physically) but we also mouth obscenities to people who exchange cards and gifts and show affection towards their ‘loved-ones’ on 14th Feb. the festival of the Cupid is vulgar, we retort. Oh but we are so in love.

We will serve our paati-parameshwars even if they are kamdevs of the worst sort; juggling about three women at a time…after all kamdev is a god too isn’t he? But the post-man performs his ‘duties’ better.

Times are changing now and we are definitely catching up with the west and things are happening in front of the bush. We exchange porn cd’s and magazines. We do ‘everything’ openly with many people, pyaar kia to darna kya. High time people respect us for the love we have for our partner(s) and even if we wish to do it again and again and again.

We are definitely in love and struck by the Cupid aren’t we??
