Are all my friends on vacation? Why No new disussions?

raveemenon @raveemenon (1071) • India 16 Feb 07

I found mylot as one of the best forums and enjoy the discussions. I have a few vociferous friends also here. But for the last few days no new postings from them. is it a writers' block? or simple hibernation?

imrajesh i think that it was not their policy . shilpa was the best contestant and the controversey just helped her to gain an edge over others. it helped her to gain sympathy and she was the most appropriate candidate for winning this show. have a nice day.

Much has been talked about the modesty of women! What in your opinion contribute to this concept? When do you consider she crosses the limit? I would like to hear from my men folks more about it!
