Okay so we all know Pakistan and India are 97% alike, I mean our food,skin color,traditions,language,clothes,movies,music, standards etc are THE SAME, the only difference is Religion.

so as I was saying, in Indian movies, they are very open to nudity,sex scenes/kissing, aldultry, skimpy clothing YET that does not happen in reality, of course it does BUT not as open, just like in Pakistan.

my question is, is it portrayed realisticlly? do indians really wear skimpy clothes like that? do they do stuff like that?
I know being a Pakistani, we dont BUT of course there are always gonna be people that do, but our movie industry does not show it so openly(some do of course) but its always highly critisized, how come not in india? I just saw a beautiful cover of Vouge INDIA with a bikini-clad girl, nice cover but would NEVER happen in Pakistan , not now atleast

Is India ahead of their time in that sense? cuz I always wondered, do indians dress/act like that most of the time..
THANKS
@ joe

yeah but what I'm saying its excepted
girls can wear bikini's etc like its no big deal yet Pkaistani & indian culture is THE SAME and in Pakistan its no where accepted , another thing is when a PK actress does a certain sexy scene she is NOT respected, yet in india its NO BIG DEAl, lol its werid but I wanna know how it got from where it was to where its now

I know its not TRUE portayel of Indians but its accpeted meaning it might have some truth to it
@ Taglo

actually I was reffering to MOVIES, not drama's

yes the drama's arent even close to the movies

Go watch Jab we Met, Jism, Murder(should be rated R)

and why?

Thanks.

I am currently in Pakistan. I wear my neat & tidy clothes while going for prayer in masjid. But when it comes to my slippers they are just ordinary. The reason behind this is they might be stolen as it usually happens in here. So i am feeling myself guilty while wearing nice clothes and not an up to standard slippers. i am worried.

just need your help that what is according to sunnah ?

and what to do that is best for me?

THANKS

Our rented apartment looks dull, and I want to spruce it up with some color.
I was thinking of using my wedding bangles and a saree (long flowing grarment of one piece, worn in India). You can see pictures of sarees here: http://images.google.com/images?q=saree+&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&hl=en&tab=wi&start=0

Do you have any ideas for using a long piece of fabric, in decorating a wall? And bangles too.

The saree is around 20' by 3' (I think)

I'd like to use the saree in one piece, but I also welcome other suggestions.

Thanks!

On 6th March 2007, we had the farewell party for all (hopefully) ''Soon-to-be-graduates''. That morning my mother was supposed to drape the saree for me which i decided to wear a night before the Farewell. We never attended any Farewell parties in our 1st & 2nd year. We found it a waste of time so we ended up bunking college on that day or we spent the day at shehla's place (our escape) watching movies.

I woke up on the day and tried to wake up my mother for the saree. But! Apparently she was not feeling too well and she asked e to go over at afrah's place and let her do it. Now, as much as I was delighted to see afrah that morning. I was also afraid that she wont be able to drape the saree the way it should be. (i lived under an illusion that only mom can do it the best!)

Anyway, out of any options left I called up Afrah to check if i can drop by at her place and she could drape the saree for me.She agreed to do it and I took my saree at her place with whatever few cosmetics i possessed. I didn't expect her to agree to get ready with me but to my shock she did. When i entered her room she was getting ready. P.s. she looked hot ;)

She had a look at me and realised what a mess i was in. So, she decided she'll drape her saree first and then mine. I took a small video of that in my phone with the sole intention of irritating her and after a few seconds I succeeded as she asked to stop recording or else she would smash my phone.

She then, draped my saree keeping in mind my constant requests of draping the saree ''AS LOW WAIST AS POSSIBLE''. Once, she did it i was pretty satisfied with the result. Infact, It was better than Mom (I hope, she is not reading this!) :P

Afrah then asked what am i wearing in my eaes to which i had no response. As I was a tomboyish brat I considered owning a pair of feminish jewellery as an insult or so I thought. So, then afrah got me these dangling earrings and asked me to wear them. When i asked her if she owned them she reaplied that it belonged to 'Juhi' (afrah's cousin). I hesitantly wore the earrings which added all the more charm to the way i looked. The saree did wonders to me.

All my classmates were shocked to see me like that and most of all, they were shocked to realize that i had a feminine side to myself. Throughout the day i was showered with compliments. But, I was a bit disappointed with the dept of my Blouse's as it seemed like Afrah a.k.a. Affu and Ammu had a secret competition of ''Who has the deepest Neck''. Though, Ammu won with her 14-Inch Broad neck which showed good amount of her back. Afrah had a 13-inch round neck. My blouse had a very very small neck.

Near the end of the day i was pretty pleased with the way i was looking. Afrah and I clicked alot of Ammu's pictures for a secret reason ;)

But, we were like rockstars or something of that sort. They were soo many girls from our class who wanted to click pictures with us. From the Padhantu Students to the ''Wannabe's''A

Just before we were approaching towards Shehla's car, we had a group of 'Padhantu's' a.k.a ''The apple of teacher's eyes''. I signalled Shehla to start the car but she said that it would be rather indecent to do so. Anyway, the group consisted of Tayyaba, Sakina, Mubeena i think. All Na-Na's. All 3 of them were complimenting on how smart and girly i was looking. What surprised me the most was the compliment from Tayyaba which goes like ''Ham log toh sonche the Ambreen-Afrah acche dikhinge, magar aap toh dono se bhi acche dikhre(we thought amby-affu would look good, but you are looking better than them)''.

I couldn't help myself but wonder, Do i really look so girly? Not that Afrah was. Afrah was girly only when needed. Otherwise, You'd find her in baggy jeans and t-shirt. Oh and before the party ended my lipstick was gone. .... another mysterious reason.

This is the pic that Azra wanted to take you can notice her black saree but she got cropped :P
Neverthe;ess, the party continued later at shehla's place not to mention the little accident on our way and my dear filthy mouth. Shehla won 2000/- rupees as she won the Ms.Positive at the Ms. St.Ann's competition. She shone like a star.

*Note : The photo will NOT be included here due to the Extreme Haut-Ness and Awesomeness that may run wild imaginations in the reader's mind. ;)

**Note: I don't have any problems with the Padhantu's or the studious ones but all 3 years of my college life, it appeared that the only reason for their existence in this world was to please all teachers even the bitchy ones. Oh and they loved to do homework which created problems for students like me, who thought we were grown enough to give a shit about the 'Homework'. Not to mention, their obsession to solve problems ASAP and flaunt it to the teach! So, that the rest of the class could look dumb.

I mss my college days.... :) despite the fact that it was like a ''JAIL'' we got away with bribing the watchman! :P

I belong to traditional bengalee family. Recently I was married to a NRI man. My husband and my in laws love me too much. I have lots of regards for them. My husband and in laws stay in USA. They have their own flats. They are very modern in their outlook. My father-in-law his age is 60+ and my mother in law(mil) her age is around 55. What I feel very uncomfortable that when my mil took me to the swimming pool. She herself wear swim suit and doing swimming in front of male members. She also asked me to do but i refuse it. Generally I wear saree in a bengalee way. When I visited USA my mil and husband also ask me to wear saree quite below at navel. One day my mil & husband bring one expensive transparent saree for me and ask me to wear. I wear but my husband insist me to wear like bolloywood actress show that my navel get expose. First I refuse it, then I gave a call to my mom in Kolkata and my mother told me that I should respect my husband' s request. My mom told me that she herself used to wear saree below navel before my birth. My mother suggest that newly married woman should expose their navel so that their husband will be under control. Now I wear saree in that way, but the problem is that when ever I wear saree below navel but my husband's friends always graze my navel. I have a deep and fleshy navel. Some of them give me nick name. I feel very bad. I would like to know is that wearing saree below navel cause any attraction to men.

What is the sexiest decent (polite) dress for a woman? I am not talking about swimming suits or any such things (then there is no argument that the pure nudity is the best for women). What do you think Angelina’s dress @ Canes in 2007? http://www.instyle.com/instyle/package/general/photos/0,,20151769_1625298_1371186,00.html
But most western dresses conceals the wonderful parts of the womens’ body. I wonder what they are thinking of Indian Sarees? I think they are greater than any western dress.
