This article is intended primarily for net.nlang.india (because
most readers of that group will probably not consider my rambling
as if emanating from Mars), but I thought this may be of interest
to some other groups too.

The question is prompted by some of the questions raised by some
folks about "arranged marriage" vs. "love marriage" etc.
Some opponents of "arranged marriage" (opponent is the key word here)
have questioned the "educatedness" of some of us poor blokes who are
dumb enough to allow our parents a say in our life after we have
reached puberty (read that as enlightenment).

Wonder how people feel about premarital sex. Someone compared arranged
marriages to "shopping" as in shopping for a car. Am I allowed to
extend the analogy to say that premarital sex feel like "test driving"
the car?

Cheers...........
