A Postmodern Advertisement

Image
Please have a look at the advertisement in which a detective solves the case with a different way. First we will look at the explanation of the term postmodernism and then discuss the traits in this advertisement.  "Postmodernism is a philosophical movement evolved in reaction to modernism, the tendency in contemporary culture to accept only objective truth and to be inherently suspicious towards global cultural narrative or meta-narrative. Postmodernist thought is an intentional departure from the previously dominant modernist approaches. The term "postmodernism" comes from its critique of the "modernist" scientific mentality of objectivity and the progress associated with the Enlightenment".-Wikipedia. The advertisement I have shared has postmodernist traits but how? First of all let's recall all the detective stores you have read so far. In each story we see that the detective solves the mystery in an ascending order. Here, also the det...

Possessive Men

Image
I woke up with one thought in mind why all men are possessive about women not to mention their beloved's, girlfriends, wives, and daughters. I have no answer for this but upon thinking I zeroed my self at some points. The first thing, I have never come across any man or men who are talking merry things about their women. Why do they never talk better or positive side of them? Why two married or unmarried men never talk about their girlfriends or wives? On the contrary if two or four married women are chatting then their respective husbands is the hot topic following children and shopping. If four men are grouped together they would talk about or discuss hell lot of things including financial crisis, inflation, or any other things but not about their better halves. Why is it so? My opinion is irrespective of modernization, industrialization, or better education men possesses the same mind set of Adam. During primitive ages man use to hunt for shelter, food, and prot...

India: Male Preserve Society

Image
The other day I was scratching my head. A question was suddenly aroused (actually not unexpectedly but was in the mind) in my mind why our nation practices Male Preserve Society structure? I couldn’t get the answer. I think I’m too young to find the answer or not experienced enough to understand the structure. But what I learned from my past is there are three types of people who influence this structure. Father Figures -Comprises all the male persons Mother Figures -encompasses all the female  persons  Both the sexes -Involving all the Adam’s and Eve’s Now one thing may be confusing how I add women in this social structure. The answer is in my opinion today’s women are rapidly becoming Father Figures with their stubborn attitude and rigid thoughts. Rigid thoughts mean their attitude to avenge men or male preserve people. What they think that I don’t know, but this will lead to nowhere.  Our society needs to bridge the gap of manly hood and womanly hood ...

why one gets haunted with the past?

Leaving behind the childhood why we grow faster, why we leave all the glorious days when everyone is talking about us, everyone wanted to know you, wants to spend some time with you. Those were the days when the whole world was revolving around you and you were busy in constructing your own world. while one day this all vanishes at once. when it vanishes doesn't know but it disappears like a cracker. you will not get any glimpse of those days, situations, minutes, seconds, hell lots of other tings. why this happens? donno know. wanted to catch those bitter sweet moments again. In anyone's case, the bitter moments are the most joyous moments. may be the line is contradictory but it is true. will tell u how? these moments are those that are unexpected, unpredicted, unexplained but lasts for ever. why this happens may be a scientists headache but one can not erase them, wipe out them, eradicate them, eliminate them. We always say that these moments teach us a lot. I doubt. ...
