Communication - Although all of us have been communicating with others since our infancy, the process of transmitting information from an individual (or group) to another is a very complex process. So here is a blog for everyone...just ramble on!

The need to BARE.

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingWas going through the morning newspaper - the Bombay Times and was quite disgusted. Why?Because it's not the most alluring sight to see men and women in a few strips of cloth, baring everything that is, for the world to see while sipping your mornin' brew. It's not only in the newspapers. It's everywhere. In song sequences, posters, movies - they all give way to unrealistic, unhealthy portrayals of female sexuality, sexual health, and gratuitous female sexuality and nudity.

Why is it so mandatory to bare skin for a movie or a song to be on the top of charts?

How does Paris Hilton stripping make her movie House of Wax (or any other) any more popular? It's not only in Hollywood? We are following them and are on our way in attaining the title of 'World-Leaders' in the field. Most teens, children as they call themselves Generation Next will snap back at you and looking down their noses explain that it's the most in thing to wear - the lesser the better. How does showing your cleavage in a pub or wearing skimpy outfits make you popular?

And it's not only for wimmen here...there are a lot of men who parade around in all sorts that don't term as "clothing"!

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingI am not against wearing something "sexy", but when "sexy" comes close to being "nude", that's where I have the problem. Quote the Indian bare-it-all-woman, Ms.Sherawat, "Why should I hide my body when I've worked so hard on making it what it is today?"There's nothing to be ashamed of the human body. But is there a need to prove to the world that you have a marvelous body?


My research says that when the upper strata of the human brain is empty, people make use of such means to gain attention and attract crowd. I am not asking you to cover every centimeter of your skin, like it was done in the olden times, but why to resort to such means? Like everything else on this planet, a need for balance is required with respect to this issue as well. OR (tubelight just lit) are we trying to preserve the culture of our ancestors and hence resorting to leaves and scraps of clothing.

  1. Ekdam Sahi Che :-) I like this Post very much. Had glimpse of it earlier but finally read it all.

    Awesome, Wonderful, I like the way you think. Really, you so very right looking sexy is nothing to do with showing off bare skin.

    I don't mind guys wearing only shorts or gals wearing two piece swin suit but not everyplace, looks good when its a beach. I totally agree with the movie facto, It's pretty sleazy when that Mr Fardeen Khan wearing undies is roaming around or Ms Sherawat sitting along the poolside bare naked or some one showing of cleavage.
    How can I even expect to see a movie or read a newpaper in front of my parents or child. Expressing sexuality is not a crime but there needs to be limit to everything and right place to exhibit it.

    >>My research says that when the upper strata of the human brain is empty, people make use of such means to gain attention and attract crowd.

    I agree !!! It's like when people don't have brains they start using body becoz some how they need to make money.

    Finally, WORLD bows against MONEY.

    Money makes the person, instead of person making money. Don't you think money can almost buy everything ?

  3. >scenario wherein girls wear skimpy outfits
    Me too talking on same lines, Apart from skimpy outfits wore in pubs/clubs those are defintely worn to get attention no motive for monetary gain.

    >it really necessary to bare-it-all to gather all the attention?
    Bare it all comes down to nudity of some sort. And it's how someone gets attention of other person. Don't you think in movies or magazine its for making money ?


    >But, for all you know they mite be watching the same and enjoying them too, even if it is behind your back!!
    hehehehe...I totally agree with that..I can't stop that na...


    >Where does money come here? There is no relevance.
    People show nudity to gain attention ,indirectly to gain money na...


    >Money does not buy everything.
    Yeah, exactly..not everything .. thats why I said almost everything..There are definitely things that money cannot buy, No matter how much one has.
