Males can identify and male-male aggression takes up fast for mutual roles, but guess how males identify female victims in Riots?
Sometimes by bindis, at other times a policeman shows them the way to plunder...................
Somehow we make assosciations of Virality with Victory, as if we still live in the stone age era of progeny, the destrucytion of a Vagina as a male property,  hate based o genitals, is it simply because of intensit assosciated with biological desire, or it more importantly assosciated with how we learn to look at things how we assosciate anyone who learns English uses The 4 letter F word so often as if that proves u understand everything how Progeny can be created....................................................... Thats the end of every thing. On a personal note, I follow a rule Do not Fancy Boozing without drinking and Do not Use Sex without realising what or how pleasurable it is!
Else I feel loosing the crux of it, one turns out to be a pervert. We like to discuss others practices and concerns of hygeine but end up being merely voyeuristic and making jokes. We think women are Pure, but in reality they join in, commiting the most brutal blunder for their so caled sanctity. Whole villages beside delhi, entire muslim bastis existed, every man burnt alive, and every woman sold off.......................
Thats reality friends, and when we talk of circumspection instead of medical term violence comes into our mind, may be because it Hinders other senses or may be coz we get too deterministic that pain will wnd in Pain( it all started with a pain, remember?)
As if a fantasisied truth that the world would be better off without some people holds true, as we have a future no past.

Anyways the truth is my doc adviced me on safe sex knowing I am circumscribed, so anyone who publishes such crap must be like showing a human heart (too large for a human being let me asure u) Jerking with pumped blood with Quoran playing in background!  

How easily we pick up the friction assosciate violence and create enemity. Indeed Experience tells us it is easier to identify oneself by the ones he hates///////////////////


I do not advocate peace, I do not deny the existance and need of struggle for survival, at the same time inserting my semen into somebody else's wife can not be on the ground that he raped mine,  doesnt do any good to me ,and my wife being happy at it, only intensifies her problem and her state before my eyes. Struggle should be only undertaken if it serves purpose, serves good.
