Love Commandos!

Post by Eulogy »

Yeah, it sounds like the name of a cheesy porn movie.

But it isn't. The mere fact that people are stepping up to end such misogynist bullshit is heartening.

What the hell are you linking to? Is posting a description impossible?

Jesus balls, who do you think I am, Warsie? From the link address alone (you don't need to click on it) you can see it's a video on a news site.

But fine, here's a brief description: you know how people in India get unreasonably upset when their kids decide to marry someone they really don't approve of, to the point where said kids justly fear for their lives? Well, there are safehouses for such couples, run by a group calling themselves the Love Commandos.

The reason for linking this video is to show people that India is slowly improving on women's rights, and that not everyone in India wants women to be oppressed.

You know, in at least 2 countries, it shows empty black square with text 'video not available at your location'. Yes, description would be nice.

I'll add that, I can't view the video in question either. Looks like this is a Canadians only topic.
