the removal of thirumangalayam on the death of the husband process as practised in some households is alone one good reason not to have thaali at all.

sir,sitting in canada and deriding our customs and traditions of india,is a disgusting attitude.try to change your life in your community,then we will know,what we are writing about.

for the uninitiated, the newly widowed woman, is dressed like a bride, and with all the breast beating and abuse (you can imagine the words), her flowers are pulled and thrown, her sari unfurled, she given white, her thaali pulled and thrown away and above all, in not so distant past, her brother dragged her holding her hair to the waiting barber where she is shorn of all hair. awww,you poor mangy thing...what a trauma you experianced...hope there are enuff psychiatrist to exorcise your pent up imagery,as in india today we are progressive lot,just as canadians have progressed from putting red-indians into a housing colony,wiping out their culture,with that of pale skins,huh!

i still weep for my grand aunt, who at the age of 10 became widowed and had to undergo this abhorrent ritual, while the so called educated men stood by. nice writer for a movie script..sob sob...how dare you sir?

what a horrid community. no other group in tamil nadu treats their women with so much abuse. we may not shave the hair now, but the abuse remains - no invitations to sumangali prarthanai, and so many stupid functions of exclusivity. good riddance to bad rubbish...we can heave a sigh of relief,tamizh nadu is bereft of your kind...thank you god...oh yeah and you did build temples for hindus in canada,right.
