I have seen many saying "They understands the desire of some in our community to remain in a socially sanctioned marriage that provides a blanket of respectability and security while keeping another partner who can meet teir emotional and physical needs. "
Is pre/extra - martial relationship an accepted everyday kind a thing in India's current generation?
The choice to be honest with one's partner about the longing to be sexual with someone else and the efforts to satisfy that longing made the very concept of adultery seem old-fashioned, obsolete. Some say so that justifies a new phase in Indian urban culture. TV shows, Magazine, articles and popular self-help books didn't actually look down on adultery; in fact, they boldly shared with readers the information that adultery could be good for a relationship.
Adultery is needed and accepted because today's couples, young and old alike, are cynical about love and more convinced than ever that relationships are primarily about passion and power. As a culture we no longer believe in the power of love. This generation unleashed a cynicism so intense it became painfully obvious that many couples would rather start off believing vows will be broken and bonds easily severed than ground their partnerships in openness, honesty, and trust. If love is only a pretense and a game, then adultery merely becomes one of the power plays.
If trust is never truly present, then it can never be betrayed. If hearts are never surrendered, then they can never really break. Adultery becomes commonplace, safe, and ultimately a boring confirmation of the cynical belief that we will all be let down, abandoned, betrayed. Given such a stance, to courageously choose love places the heart at risk; it is far more seductive and subversive than cheating could ever be.
