not an easy job!!!

I was lazying in a seminar session while Ms M threw this paper infront of me and was a bit irritated. I dint understand what it was and took it and saw a big photo of a girl who was naked and a write up on her....its been more than 6 months now..and i still read this piece.... go through it
http://www.bangaloremirror.com/index.aspx?page=article&sectid=1&contentid=2008072920080729145743750f65890e0&sectxslt


ok to start with....i love the article....ofcourse not for the way it was written but i can clearly see the attitude of Anjali who is very clear in what she wants in life. unlike many hypocrites and those in the veil of traditions and cultures, anjali surely made a niche in her personal and professional life.
i felt, i am no one infront of this woman who is as genuine as a crystal clear mirror without any faking attitude. purity is what we need in life....no point in watching porn secretly or throwing tantrums on opposite sex and faking to be clean....i compare them with a clean and tidy comode which inherently is dirty but looks clean for while....

i always wanted to know why sex workers are into the field...they r also women, they have emotions, they need a family and they need a supporting shoulder....to quench my thirst, i met this eunuch on necklace road one sunday evening....let me tell u...necklace road is a famous hangout zone in hyderabad near hussain sagar and one can find varieties of lives in every 3 feet distance...this eunuch bumped on to me seeking alms and i asked her to give me her phone number...she was taken aback and put a puzzled face....i assured her that i am harmless and i just want to talk to them....apparently she refused to give me the number and asked me to come to their place anytime...i accepted the invite.

i still dont know why i am writing this blog...but somehow i remembered anjali today and googled for her article and am penning it down here...may be i just want to say that we shouldnot judge people by what we look at them..its better to talk to them and conclude..(anyways we dont have anyrights to conclude about anyone)

lets respect each other!!!!!!

I strongly feel, if given a choice, the sex workers will certainly do another job for a nicer pay. I see these prostitutes in Hong Kong. There are loads of them from Thailand, Philippines and Indonesia.

The saying goes in Philippines like this : If you go to Hong Kong, you have two choices : 1. work as a maid 2. work as a prostitute and earn in 2 years what you will earn in 12 years.

But at the same, these guys who criticize the sex workers are the ones who stand up in a queue out there...why not point fingers towards MEN ?

i read her article.. she has her judgemental right and view about the way she lives.. she took it the easy way. she could have used her head..

anyways am no saint or judge to judge her... everyone has their right to live the way they want.. atleast she is not hurting anyone.. she is just living her life..

Deep inside Anjali , she wants to CRY and wants to shed an ocean of tears. She is not crying because she has not opened up her subconscious mind. She needs alcohol to do it.

Anjali`s "action" and "only just action without love" is a serious flaw. Can she and will she "act" with her father or brother ? Or will she "act" with her son whom she can beget without marriage.
