What a shame!

[NOV]

Hi NOV, apa khabar? We have our very own case-Daphne Iking. Her husband did file a suit on enticement.

Hi AR, khabar baik*
What is with this new id? PM me pls.

Even in her case, it was "enticement" not "adultery." Some bored lawyer must have looked up the archaic law. Anyway as you are aware the case just fizzled out and there were talks of repealiing this colonial law.

an old joke: childhood is not as enjoyable for a child as adultery is for an adult.

* khabar baik is malay for I am fine (in response to AR's query)

Again you are going like "Potham Pothuvaga"

Somebody please tell what is culture and what are the elements and what things it says to follow and what not?

oops.. please replace culture with indian culture.

In conclusion, what this world needs is not more laws and constant judging, but love, compassion and understanding.

Culture is not static and is always changing. What was common for our ancestors, say a thousand years ago, are no longer common for us today.

In fact, I would go as far to say today's morality was thrust upon us and is not originally ours to begin with. Globalisation.

..and responsibility, commitment and accountability and above all dignity befitting discerning six-sensed human beings.

Googling for the meaning of culture I found this:

Culture is the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior that depends upon man's capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generations... the customary beliefs, social forms, and material traits of a racial, religious, or social group. Culture means many different things to different people: the clothing, the food, the values, the laws, the beliefs, the music and dance, the material things, the language, the art, the medicine or healing practices, the shared history, the kinship system (whom you consider to be family), the stories, the hairstyles, the economic system, and much more, of a group of people. Families, neighborhoods, ethnic groups (groups of' people from the same part of the world), religious groups, regions, countries, all have their own cultures. Culture is constantly changing as people and places change.

Honestly and respectfully PP mam, I really don't understand the inherent need to be so judgemental.

Really, why can't we let people do what they want, as long as its not harmful to anyone.

Just playing Devil's Advocate here..."harm" is not as obvious to define as we think

Even that is something I was able to imagine, he'll most probably surprise me !
