#13K224 I dont know why is it so difficult to differentiate between an object and a female?! I have heard boys refer to woman as samaan, maal, cheez, item, and when confronted about the same the justification I recieve is even more astonishing, itna toh chalta hai yaar...maal hii toh bola hai....rape toh nahi kiya. If this continues, I wont be surprised if in the coming times even rape will attain a chalta-hai-yaar status. Yes we like being appreciated. Yes we like receiving compliments. Call us beautiful. Call us intelligent. But no! maal, cheez, item, samaan, these are not compliments. Save these terms for actual objects. It is totally uncool and disrespectful. Stop deriving fun from it. Even if you are talking amongst ur guy-gang. Do you ever say sumthing like, yaar aaj meri behen maast samaan lag rhi hai. or have u even dare tried to say to ur frend, bhai, aaj teri behen kamaal ka maal lag rahi hai. ? Your sister is a girl. Your friends sister is a girl. And the rest of the girls are NOT objects. They are girls too. Same goes for the girls too. Stop being flattered on recieving such comments. Being called an item or maal should not make you smile sheepishly. It should enrage you, disgust you. There are other more flattering adjectives you can use for a woman than maal/samaan/totta. Appreciate us as humans and you might stand a chance of receiving a decent Thank you in return. Appreciate me as an object and Ill show you, thats what Im not.
