Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When he fell in love with someone who is the same sex as himself, Laakhi Singh never knew after marrying the man of his dreams, what he would have to endure, firstly becoming a woman a bride with a secret, for the sake of the society and Sikh culture. Miserable before and after marriage. His heart-wrenching love story shows the determination and lengths Laakhi Singh went to, to hide his pain and make a marriage work that was built on a lie. Disowned by his parents, abused and humiliated by his mother-in-law. Laakhi's story shows how much a wife, Indian daughter-in-law's have to deal with, how the world could be so cruel that honour mattered more than a person's life. How vows become nothing, how love didn't conquer all and how it all ended in travesty.
Book Synopsis Men, Masculinities and Honour-Based Abuse by : Mohammad Mazher Idriss
Download or read book Men, Masculinities and Honour-Based Abuse written by Mohammad Mazher Idriss and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the largely neglected relationship between men, masculinities and honour-based abuse (HBA). There is a common misconception that HBA – whether physical violence, emotional abuse or so-called ‘honour’ killings – occurs only against women. This book addresses the gap in the current literature concerning the relationship between men, masculinities and HBA. With contributions from an international and interdisciplinary range of both academics and professionals, the book examines HBA and forced marriages specifically from male-victim perspectives, both in the UK and internationally. Providing a clear understanding of the main theoretical and sociological explanations of HBA against male victims, the book demonstrates that, although men are indeed the main perpetrators of HBA, state agencies must address the fact that many men are also victims. This book is essential reading for students, academics, and practitioners alike.

Born in 1904, Dover grew up hearing the elders of her tribe tell of the hardships involved in moving from their villages to the reservation on Tulalip Bay: inadequate supplies of food and water, harsh economic conditions, and religious persecution outlawing potlatch houses and other ceremonial practices. Dover herself spent ten traumatic months every year in an Indian boarding school, an experience that developed her political consciousness and keen sense of justice. The first Indian woman to serve on the Tulalip board of directors, Dover describes her experiences in her own personal, often fierce style, revealing her tribe’s powerful ties and enduring loyalty to land now occupied by others.

Book excerpt: Jenita is an animated young girl who loves running barefoot through fields of lilac and playing in the beautiful Indian Ocean. She is the queen of her world, even when she blossoms into a slender teenager with knee-length hair. As the novel unfolds, you become one with the soul of South Africa, journeying past patchwork fields of sugar cane or viewing the Indian Ocean, whose untamed waters sparkle in a unique dance. Readers peek into informal settlements, where chubby-cheeked children dance to the beat of Zulu drums or delight in the tantalizing aromas of steaming-hot Indian curries that rise up from the pages. Minor characters like Nani, the betel-nut-chewing granny who is an expert storyteller, and Joe the gardener, who nurses his plants with a maternal fervour, promise entertaining reading. While Jenita is a poignant love story, the novel also exposes the brutality of the apartheid system and the seriousness of AIDS. What will happen when Jenita meets the dashing young art lecturer Sunil Mehra who rides a motorbike? Will she fall hopelessly in love with the heartthrob of the campus or forever remain the queen of her world? Come and join in the songs and dance of the rainbow nation South Africa. In the language of the Zulu peopleWozani!

Book Synopsis Getting Down at Bhubaneshwar by : William Guy
Download or read book Getting Down at Bhubaneshwar written by William Guy and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Westerners often travel to India for revelation. This book chronicles three trips made there by two Westerners, the author and his wife, over nine years. Revelation did occur to them as an aspect of those trips though perhaps not in any form they might have anticipated. India is an assault upon everything from the five senses to one s sense of history and religion, one's sense of the whole world in fact. It overturns, it overwhelms all categories and assumptions. It knocked two seasoned travelers off their bases as the pages of this book demonstrate. And enriched them too. Irruptive India.

Book Synopsis Grow the ------ Up! You Fill in the Blank! by : Margo Norman
Download or read book Grow the ------ Up! You Fill in the Blank! written by Margo Norman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-12-29 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-Perpetuated Drama Syndrome is the unnecessary, self-inflicted, daily stress that seems to happen in your life. SPDS affects a lot of women, no matter their age, race, religion, financial status, or geographical backgrounds. The need to have drama seems to be a gender-specific issue, yet SPDS has negative effects on both genders. Women (more than men) tend to inflict their SPDS on others without realizing that they have a problem in the first place. There are older, wiser, more mature women in the world who have found the trick to living a DRAMA-FREE life. Ms. Norman views herself as one of these women, and has written this guide to help you first identify if you have SPDS, and secondly, show you how to conquer it. Ms. Norman, a self-proclaimed people-ologist, has been able to draw from her own experiences with SPDS and give valuable advice on how to cure it, by teaching you the symptoms, giving clear examples of situations in her own life with SPDS that may be familiar to you, and then showing you how to alleviate the drama. Do you have at least one argument daily? See Chapter 1-Grow The-----Up! Do you still live at home with your parents, but cant stop arguing with them? Chapter 5- Youre Grown So Buy Your Own! teaches you how to appreciate your situation and bring peace to a potentially drama-filled experience. Ms. Norman interviewed hundreds of people who identified with having SPDS. She came up with ten common issues concerning daily, self-inflicted stress that seem to be the cause of the drama women suffer. Her humorously candid portrayal of her own SPDS will cause you to think about why SPDS is considered the norm in todays society, like lying about your age (chapter 1) and in-appropriate behavior associated with your fashion choices (chapter 2-What The -----Are You Wearing). Ms. Norman also speaks about two topics that are considered taboo- Chapter 9-Youre A Women So You Cant be The Daddy deals with lesbians and the effects of gender identity issues on children and Chapter 10-What He Really Thinks addresses the effects of SPDS on men. SPDS is a very real ailment and there are easy, drama-free solutions to cure it. Ms. Norman hopes to shed light on this subject and give a much needed view on the silent killer of peaceful living! Her advice is for women to Grow The ----- UP!
