Valentine day and stupid Indians

Why is it right to say that Asian “Indian commons” (people) is a synonym with “stupidity”? This is in context with the Valentine Day celebrations and the women’s freedom in the democratic country of India.
What is the issue?
Indian common men and women want to celebrate Valentine Day and kinds.
How?
Greeting each other. Gifting each other. Extravanganza. Couples standing on the side of high-society roads, touching and kissing each other in variety. Couples sitting on beaches, and performing all kinds of stuff….

So, who has a problem with that?
Religious radicals.
Why?
Because they think that it’s anti-Indian in culture and values.
What are they doing?
By violently forcing people (particularly women) to not celebrate the day and kinds.

Who is winning, who is losing and what is stupid about all this?
1) Valentine did not definitely start in India but West and Europe. There was a guy ‘Valentine’. They say he was a womanizer but we won’t go there. Indians think that they will appear move advanced and forward looking if they follow the Valentine traditions like Europe and Americas. Basically, Valentine fits America and Europe. It does not fit Indian way of life. Westerns celebrate it just to celebrate it, that’s simple. Indians try to ‘force-celebrate’ it. Bawdy actions on the road-side is not a comfort scene for passers-by in India. And, Indian men are famously recognized as ’staring flocks’.

Valentine-addict Indians: stop Valentine and get some comfort life. Have a partner. Do whatever you want to do inside closed doors and stop that public display. It is doing nobody a favor.

2) Religious sects like ‘Ram Sena’ try to impose (force and violence) religious rules on those who try to celebrate Valentine kind of stuff. When on earth has violence helped to bring peace, harmony and cultural values within a society? I don’t think ever or any.

Anti-Valentine Indians: stop forcing others your way. It does not help.

Who is losing in all this shit-mess?
Every Indian and the country India.

Who is gaining from all this shit-mess?
Political crooks.
