(JP Dutta on UMRAO JAAN) “Like Shakespeare is to English, Ruswa is to Urdu and I’ve done this film because of my father and this book. The flesh trade is the oldest profession. We still look at a female as if she is just for amusement and sexual desire. We don’t give her dignity and it is very sad. Even today when a girl is born, many families are not happy and that is very disturbing.
Men forget that it is only women who can give birth to a child. They have the womb. If women decide not to reproduce, this world will not exist. It is like lyricist Sahir Ludhanvi said, Aurat ne janam diya mardon ko, mardo ne use bazaar diya (Woman gave birth to man, man took her to market).”

I’m Elena, and my measurements are 38-28-42. I have been self conscious for a really long time and I recently discovered I love my curves. I adore this blog, it makes me appreciate my body, and I no longer care about what others think. I love my body even if you don’t.
"I am afraid that we may be raising a generation of young people who will grow up afraid to love, afraid to give themselves completely to another person, because they will have seen how much it hurts to take the risk of loving and have it not work out. I am afraid that they will grow up looking for intimacy without risk, for pleasure without significant emotional investment. They will be so fearful of the pain of disappointment that they will forgo the possibilities of love and joy."
