In Kerala, women of lower castes had to pay tax for their breasts, called mulakkaram or breast tax. A great woman reacted to it by cutting her both breasts and offered it to the officers. She later died of bleeding and her husband commited suicide. This was revolutionary, it happened in early 1800s. Now the Kissing Strike in Cochin. 2014. The hype of popular culture and stupidity. What is revolution and what is it for became meaningless. It is the difference between a need and necessity. Also, the advantage of manipulation. It can be a legacy or an inverted legacy, both where there. What should be included and what should be excluded. Again, I recently came across a word voyeur or voyeurism. It is, spying on actions usually considered to be private in nature. Consider the interest of people on it, other than the protestors, the curious audience. Whatever happens, its a media feast.
