Wow, once we start talking about Girl Power we can't stop. Amazing how a simple question about whether we support live in relationships or not has turned into a discussion about marriage, sex, rape, pregnancies, abortions and women in war. I am loving it. Maybe you should change the title of the tread Bri, to something, like 'All the strong women out there voice your opinions." 😆

I think if more people discuss these issues they won't remain taboo for too long.

If an Indian is not willing to marry you after a live-in relationship then marry a European/African - you do not have to narrow down your choice to India.....don't get bogged down my society/family pressure - believe me when I say - it is not worth it.  Live your life the way you want to live.  If you are comfortable with the live in arrangement - go for it - duniya jaye tel lagane.....don't care what others think about you.

@ Savitan; I hate you so much that I love you. Loved your answer about marrying other people if Indians don't want you. I have already taken your advise, not because an Indian wouldn't except me (actually I don't know because I never tried) but because I feel in love.

Plus I think most Indian men would be scared of my liberal ways.

I just did crunches yesterday and my abdominal muscles are hurting and as I read your post I couldn't stop myself from laughing. And now thanks to your 'duniya jaye tel lene' I am in so much pain.

I hate you because I am pain because of you, I love you because you are wonderful.

Sundae Fudge: Great post as always. Me believe in an individual's right to be happy. It's for the individual to decide about her or his life and the way it should be lead. I would like to see living relationship in this show. It'll bring something different on television if presented in the correct way. Plus, it's slowly becoming part of Indian life ... so why not show what is part of Indian society.

You are right! Otherwise women are becoming mere commodities in the marriage market marketable to the best bidder but then you have to put a price on the bride too!

I feel very strongly on this subject - not bcoz I am/was  in a live-in relationship but I was married  & am now happily divorced - came out of a very sick arranged marriage bearly able to pull myself together.  I do not want any girl to experience what I have been through.  If it is in me to prevent any girl from going through the experience that I have been through, I would gladly help.
