I'm sorry if my response sounded critical. Thank you for your response. I agree with the gist of your sentiments. However I disagree in their application in this case, and that the issue is off-topic. We are dealing with the current evolution and future scenarios in Pakistan.
Some of my past posts on this issue:
1) economic disparity

Pratyush ji,
The Indian Economic Juggernaut should keep on rolling, as Pakistani economy tanks. Give it another decade, and we will see, Pakistani families willing to give away their daughters to Indian men, and not just Muslims, but to the most kaffir of men, so that some monthly "stipend" back to their families in Pakistan, keeps them afloat.
If India can ensure, that the Islamists in Pakistan do not succeed in closing off all avenues of Bollywood entertainment coming in into Pakistan, and the people-to-people contact can continue, then that is the logical conclusion. Once it becomes a trickle, it becomes a stream. Once it becomes a stream, it becomes a flood. All Pakistanis are about to become our saale.

2) Situation in Pak

This is the town which used to be the center of their leather industry, football export, and surgical instruments.
ensoi.
Similar stories ringing across all town and cities of Pakistan. But why are the people so agitated, they are a wahid ismali nuclear power kyon ji?
you mean Sania Mirza's Sasural!
At 1:40 he says that his friend came calling and due to poverty he did not know how to marry off his daughters. Can no BRFite rise to the occasion and make Pakistan his Sasural!
Less women for Pakis to use as factories.
The Pakistanis should wait another few years. India which has a skewed gender ratio would be more than happy to buy up, I mean marry all the women Pakistan has to offer! Every saala would get pocket money for the whorehouse, I mean the goat zoo!
That would be the biggest change in Indo-Pak relations when India becomes rich again, and Pakistan keeps on digging its grave! There will be even more love across the boundary!

I agree with you completely. But I also think that the issue is very much delinked. It could be that one or the other BRFite may have mentioned it in that context, something I may have missed, and thereby created a link, however just because someone opines that link, does not mean that such a link should necessarily exist.saadhak wrote:As far as love and starting a family goes, I do think it should be delinked with heaping humiliation on the enemy.
We in India have a paucity of women, and were Pakistanis be willing to marry off their daughters to Indians, why should we object. It is not as if we are kidnapping their women, or buying them as slaves to work, or abusing them as sex-slaves, or killing off their men-folk and taking them as war-booty! No, we are not doing that! Something like may indeed be humiliation. But just marrying their women is not a humiliation. I would even call it an honor we are bestowing upon the Pakistanis.
Both sides get something from it. The Pakistani side of the family gets some monthly financial support and survive, and the Indian family gets a bahu.
At a strategic level, it would be taking away the Paki Breeding Factories, which is in fact how the women are used there. There is a population explosion going on in Pakistan, and such a move on a larger scale can moderate that. In fact, from this perspective, no amount of Pakistani women we Indians marry can be enough. Indians would be doing a national duty should they marry a Pakistani woman, and thereby stop her from breeding more India-hating Jihadis. In fact, it is a valid means of managing Pakistan's failure.
Again, I would like to point out that marrying a woman can hardly be considered barbarian.saadhak wrote:I don't think this is a humiliation to them. Even if it is, it is much less than doing a barbarian on their women.
This is something I missed. On second thoughts, I too may have suggested that, but that is in a case where the Pakistanis attack India with nuclear weapons, in which case all bets are off anyway. But other than that, I am not aware of anybody suggesting we forcefully take their women.saadhak wrote:Certain posts in other threads have also talked about forecefully taking their women.
And that is exactly what we are doing by taking their women as wives and not sex-slaves.saadhak wrote:Our morals and value systems and models whom we are taught to emulate unambigously state women are to be respected. I'll leave it at that.
Usually when some people consider migrating to other countries for the sake of studies or jobs, they often undertake exams and courses to prepare them for what awaits them, especially if the migration land has a different language and culture. So there are ways and means of preparing them. If courses are not available, one can just pack them on DVDs and the Pakistani women can get training on them.saadhak wrote:As far as social systems go, I highly doubt you would have Paki women enmasse to start suddenly embracing our culture given their background and upbringing.
As far as motivation is concerned, IMO, if their families are hungry and living foot to mouth, then there would be reason for them to send their daughters to India and get a son-in-law willing to support them. Such families would in fact encourage their daughters to get the necessary preparation and training to be considered an acceptable wife and daughter-in-law.
The Pakistanis however have to first become conscious of this "opportunity".
