Number 12 is my parents! Swear liberally in two languages. Know their kids swear. Kids not allowed to swear in front of them. I'm 32yo.

What horrible parents. I never heard a single swear word from my parents until I was 19, and that was because my mother was so angry that...

I'm quite fond of my parents and their quirks, actually.
cleverbeans
I just taught my kids where swearing is and isn't appropriate and that swearing at a person wasn't acceptable. They're just words after all.
Claystead
It's never appropriate. I've only sworn twice since I was a teenager; when I was in a car crash and when I got locked in that gas chamber.

Given the "locked in a gas chamber" finish I'm going to say it was sarcasm.

so, if a girl walks out of the house in a crop top in India, it's just, rape-for-sure?
Claystead
If any woman walks outside the house unescorted in India, the wolves will begin stalking their prey within minutes.
BreadInCaptivityBakery
Depends on the part of the country. Smaller cities you definitely take someone with you. Big metros, not a big deal really.
ilikemetals
Not for sure. But it's considered "asking for it". It depends which circles you're in as well. Educated people are more sensible & forgiving
veronicablood
so, wearing a crop top is a "sin" for which the feminine needs forgiveness, even amongst the educated?
ilikemetals
Oh my God. Forgiving in the sense, dressing in other people's cultural clothes instead of traditional indian! What is wrong with you?!
veronicablood
as an American, it pains to read your response. So, dressing in other people's cultural clothes is a sin? We call it "freedom of choice"
ilikemetals
1/ Indians were colonized by Britain so white people considered Indians as savages with no culture. So a lot of Indians today feel that

It blows my mind that that sort of racism is not just tolerated but encouraged. And family is *everything*, it's not like you can say

"just let them disown you", that would sever what they see as a massive support network. I don't find it all that supportive!

DarkwingDuc
It's almost like preaching abstinence only instead of healthy, protected sex leads to more young mothers unable to provide for their family.
HalloIamherenow
With abstinence preaching you lead to people having sex unprotected, or to people who are so scared of it or hate it that they never want to
