i think those who support wearing over modern dresses in colleges and schools atleast in India are most lunatic people in world. I agree that girls/ women also have right to wear clothes and garments according to there comfort but there are some places where we must restrict ourselves to do some things. Like if i will start saying that I am not comfortable wearing any cloths and will prefer to be nude in college or temple will it be correct? If this is allowed then I will again demand that I am not comfortable reading or studying a particular subject so that subject must be changed according to my wish and other students will also demand so. Will it be correct or even possible to do so for every individual student? then someone may also say that I am also not comfertable in studing book of a particular writer ( like literature student says I am not comfertable studing shakespear) is it possible to do so according to every student? leave it all at our home if each member demands that he is not comfertable in eating a dish and he wish that your mother makes a new dish according to everyone of them is it possible? or if this is allowed then some moder thinker may say that they are comfortable in doing sex in college ground and as we are free why shoud others see or bother then will it be right or should it be allowed? crux is that we have to adjust ourselves according to some conditions and situations. The reason for which the above statements cannot be allowed for the same reason wearing over mordernised clothes can also be not allowed. We can not expect girls wearing burkhas or sariees with ghunghats in college but decency is necessary. if they wear suits, kurtas or jeans etc. then it is fine but for wearing bikinis or micro mini skirts there are other places. I want to ask these modern about modern dress codes for parties etc. set by themsels ? I want to suggest that if they want to use there liberty and want comfort then there are other places like I cannot expect a girl to wear a burkha and go to swim. But I am very sure that non of us ( supporters ) will ever object on a girl wearing a bikini on a beach as it is right place for wearing it but if a girl wants to wear it in college it must surely be not allowed. if you are mordern enough and not just a copy cat then you must have some knowledge about dressing sense also which reflects your manners, decency, aticates, inteligence etc. So I suggest all fools that if you want to be comfortable please be at your home or cinema hall or disco or pub etc. but at places like temple/ church/ college ( temple of education) etc. please kindly be properly dressed or go somewhere else to show off.

Dear Ardhendu Pal,,,,u r saying totally right...and one suggestion to u..if no body wana to listen and understand to ur culture and feelings..u can not force anybody..because u know if u hit ur head in stone..definatilly stone will not got any pain..but ur head will sure be damged (in case of to try understand to Mr.konkan SINGHA)...and i think he is trying to more intelligent and showing that he is only one person who care all Ladies ..and respect them..but he should know that for respect there is a limit...everybody know how to give respect all ladies in the world....ways may be different..its not the question of to see all women on bitches and try to cool ur mind(according to Mr.Konkan SINGHA)...I THINK everyperson have their own..sister,mother,aunt..any thing u can say..if (Mr.Konkan SINGHA) will see according to these angle..then they will find what actually..happend...but i think this good debat..mr Ardhendu Pal's...nice going to u...and i will totally support to u......keep rocking...

College Campus is for study purpose and they must not make it fashion street. Leave some places as it is. We need not to put nose in all the matters by naming the Freedom. There is a period for everything in life. Mixing up these periods are resulting in so many unwanted issues and bad things for society.

Mr. konkan SINGHA It's worthless to explain to you.......... because you will never understand the richness and depth of Indian culture and tradition. You are telling others to change mindset but on the contrary you must learn to respect our tradition first if you are Indian in any sense. I am not only Bengali........... I am Indian is this loud and clear to you?

Mr. Konkan SINGHA............ Please do not think this is a platform for the promotion of your OSHO or any shitty thing.......... And if you don't get aroused then this is your impotency and nothing else. We do not want to loose our culture and tradition if you are happy with the fact that you have brutally sold your mother then it is totally your decision and please do not mind to sell yourself to the uncultured doggy culture because you have already done it. We need out Indian tradition to be as it was and there is nothing wrong in it. You will see that maximum number of rape cases are happening to these so called Modern mindset people who first invite the mishap through dirty clothes then cry that they lost everything.

I am very disappointed with the thought of people. I just fail to understand whether such clothes are meant for human beings. college going girls and young female professional use to wear such a dress about which I don`t think I should say any thing. But all of us know that in recent time crime against women has increased many-fold. For opposing such crime slut walk was started in many parts of the world including India. But I think before accusing anyone for any sort of mischief one should think whether they are right. most of the crimes against women is related to sexual harassment. This is because such clothes use to excite the person of opposite sex to commit such crimes. I don`t think that such clothes are more comfortable than traditional Indian dress. Some people say that we should change our mindset. OK I am agree to change my mindset. I am ready to change it beyond their expectations. Now women who want to wear such dress if they want they may come naked in the market it will look even more modern.

hi everyone..i also opposed forcefully,& strongly such modern dress in college campus..i think there is rare few girls and guys..who goes college only for doing study..otherwise i think colleges r going only such type of fashion school..there should be a unique dress code in college also..and admin should give only one or two day to wear some good cloths not (not exposing dress)..and i think female should not forgot her tradition and family background..I'm hindu and my religion says..when u any people accept(good foods,fresh mind,and neat&clean clothes)such type of things give full freshness...and i think these all things r also necessary for good education in college campuss.............

Hi friends, I strongly oppose such dress in college because we are going to college to only study and nothing else. I was in a christian minority institution and also am a christian. I am taught by my christian values that we should never see fairer sex with lustful eyes. So wearing modern fashion wears would entice us.

my religion teaches me to lower down my gaze if any bad thought comes to my mind when looking at a woman. It doesnt allow me to look at woman or stare at her. It again teaches woman to gaurd their modesty. It prohibits man/woman to wear that type of dress which reveals body or body parts(curves and all).....if all muslims follow this social evils like rapes will vanish...similarly people of other religion should focus on their scriptures to lead a happy life.

We are Indians and we must be proud about every cultural and traditional aspects of it, wearing of such dresses not only ashamed their parents but to a greater extent the society and in turn it's a national shame. Schools and colleges are the divine places and we must encourage wearing non-violent dresses. What happens is the street toddlers are attracted and in turn gives raise to the crime rate like acid bulbs, teasing, and rapes.

ya that is right. There should not be any restriction on the thoughts and dress on the women or girls whatever is the nation either india or abroad. and The men should accept that the female are also simillar to men. they are also human being. But you know that this is the society where many wrong peoples are there. they dont see the women as equal thing. and they are wrong. because i think women is more powerful then man. but when these wrong people do something. society still blame the women. and it happens in most of the countries even in usa, uk and other developed countries. this is wrong it should not be. but for this revolution is needed. do you know in our countries there are many cases of female child abortion reported. Govt. is doing regular advt. for not doing this. what is going on in capital cities you know that. we should be civilized but for this revolution is needed. And i want that every person should be connected in this revolution. i believe in ancient time where girl had a power to choose her husband. but this is not here in society. i dont think we are living in a complete civilized society so i prefer not exposing too much.

Every person say that he can walk on fire, he can control himself, he can control his feelings. But the truth is everthing that is in our contact make an influence on us. i am not saying that no one can walk on fire, no one can control himself. but if someone will walk on fire if he is on practice, but he will sure burn some portion of feet himself. anyone can control himself but at slight level he will be uncontrollable. So im saying that female can wear the body exposing dress anywhere if they want. but the people around them will be affected less or more depending upon them. ultimately it will produce problem to female itself. it is a practical thing. you can take the example of united states where they are so open and it is top country in terms of rape and sexual crime.

This is not the matter of fair and fine, this is the matter of shame and Indian culture, and what is the need to wear that kind of dresses in college. If you are really talking about the comfort ability in college then there must be sofas or beds and AC which can make much cool and comfortable to the students so that they can easily understand the subject and learn more and more while concentrating on exposing. I know there are 99 things to oppose, please don’t make this one as 100. I hope still college or school is a respectable place and be let them as it is. I know and understand the concept of my friend Sheetal Bhandari, as she is saying if this is mostly everywhere in India then why not in colleges, Now I oppose and say, from where you will find this kind of culture be the part of there and that but don’t make or spoil the culture of college which will affect the co student and now college then school. So this is my humble request to all the college girls, don’t come to the college for comfort ability or relaxation, cause it effects to our society and culture. I shocked when I have seen that there are a more votes for modern dressing at campus in toostep and especially senior citizens are rating high, why I don’t know but my concern is that every buddy knows that what the modern dressing is. In our regular life most of the things we are compromising, now for the sake of culture if we compromise this thing also then I think lot of the changes will be there in our social life....!

College itself refers a divined place where the knowledge is to be taught. Once in a Christian educational school debarred the girl who wore flowers. The case went to even justification to court. Nothing was done in favor. The judgement supported the management. Dress code is a must too, to be like a soldier who serves for the country.

Dear Sona, We are going to college just to study and to gain knowledge not to expose our body. Being Indian girls we should adopt our culture and should be a role model for next generation girls to follow our culture. Why foreigners like Indian culture? simple its because of our culture, hospitality and tradition. As girls we should not set wrong example for others. we should not follow western culture. Lets make westerners to follow our culture. Be proud to be an Indian girl and follow Indian culture. JAI HIND.

First i want to say i know that we live in modern society and i also support the broad thinking but after all we are humans and if it is the case of male and female both are the opposite poll and attracts each other. so if not for female, if male will expose their body in campus the focus will be on attracting each other rather then other activities. So modern dress are acceptable and appreciable but too much open is also not right.

At an age of 17, 18 the body has new hormones in full swing, everyone is supposed to be aware of this, biologically yes the question is how to express, how much to express, if you are hot, you are hot. If you are not, you are not. Women are physically bit "weaker" than men and can be out maneuverer, wearing skimpy (modern) dress can arouse lust among men, in the human world we can form groups (clusters). If a cluster of such lust driven men or man gets into action to unleash the force, can lead to eve teasing, molestation, rape, gender bias, dowry, harassment etc. The above doesn’t happen in the animal world a group of male tiger or elephant or mouse cannot rape their female counterpart nor can form groups (union, party, society, and/or clusters) like us. This is nothing to do with male domination or colleges being sacred places, where would women learn healthy self-expression? And where would men learn benevolence? Thank you Vinoy for Frwing "If women have the courage to wear such dresses in public, they can take care of themselves also", What is courage? The ability to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. Why would they (women) undergo fear and / or pain to display or carry their feminine feature or persona? This is where we differ from animals, women for past thousands of years have displayed dependency on their male counterpart. Where ever and whenever they got the space encouragement and support they have displayed their worth, Till date they have never tried to suppress men, men have always suppressed and /or oppressed women, seen them as stupid baby producing machine. Thank you landmark Group for ur comments...

I totally agree with Shanti that finally the call should be left to the children themselves and their parents. Perfect solution. Also a notable point has been forwarded by Mahesh. If permitted may i rework his contention a bit. The highly patriarchal elements are being increasingly marginalized in a modern India especially the middle class and cities. Hence the act of re activity. guess it is part of the churning process modern India will have to go through.

The first man and woman on earth, strode the planet stark naked. It is with passing ages that dress sense took shape. It is okay as different ages and different areas have seen different dress themes. Finally what to wear is best to be left to the wearer of clothes. I find it amusing that today everyone is trying to enforce the way others dress, especially the women and girls. And to repeat the first man and woman probably moved around showing good amount of their skin.

exposing body in college campus is not at all a right phrase.Its very cruel to describe.a dress code is necessary and I hope most all of us are following that. While you are visiting a temple or to attend an interview you are wearing a dress which gives respect to you.like wise in public places also.most of the gender is following that, I hope so.If it irritates somebody by someone else, its a meager .While most of the students, whether boys or girls following western culture, its a question mark for our tradition.They knew their limits, but for rich people they never mind public always, Hence leave them and ignore them.

If women have the courage to wear such dresses in public, they can take care of themselves also. There is nothing wrong here after all they too have the freedom to express themselves.

The beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. Similarly does sense of vulgarity. There is a limit to which you can control others, especially if you are not in control of yourself. And even the most conservatively dressed ladies and girls are subject to lust stares, catcalls, and even rape. So the crime is in the eyes of the beholder. All the more essential that our youngsters grow up in an atmosphere where they are ready to take responsibility for their actions. The attitude of Khap panchayats cannot be introduced in colleges. It is a retrogressive step for our society in future.

I still support that girls should be allowed to wear whatever they want to wear. The Parents should teach their Son to be a good citizen. There is no harm in wearing whatever the student like to wear. Our society is not Khap Panchayats to dictate what to wear and what not to wear.

I fully support that modern dress must be allowed to the girls in colleges or offices. First and foremost question is that if some body wish to show his curves, cleavage, umbilicus (belly) or further then nobody has the right to check her except her parents. But after 18 parents also loses that right legally. I am surprised why the boys are concerned about exposing dresses; rather they must be happy and enjoy the opportunity provided by such girls that too free of cost. These girls wish to expose and wish somebody to appreciate the dress. They are intelligent enough that the appreciation of exposing dress is in fact is the appreciation of their exposed body part because the dress is barely visible. Secondly, one hidden fact is the most beautiful girls do wear a covering dress but the so-so girls wear exposing dress just to make them noticed. Honestly speaking if god has not blessed someone a beautiful face but beautiful busts then what the option remains with that girl to be noticed. Modern democratic society must give equality. And boys should be happy and encourage the trend. Lastly, males who oppose such dresses do two harms: first they lose the opportunity to enjoy and they allow the girls to label the world as male's world.

Why would you always point out on women? What they should wear? What they should not wear?
Male-chauvinism shows on each and every one who opposes this. I am fine with a girl naked sun-bathing on a beach. I don't get erotic by looking at the girl naked. It is all in your mind and thought process and the way you are brought up. For all of you those who oppose to "what women should wear" should refer to OSHO a bit.

Well, Modern Dress, you mean pant and shirt or jeans and Tee? Jeans is nt revealing, Tee does show the curves, but then who is complaining but moral police. Okay so remove the Tee and replace it with a kameez. So that should satisfy the MP as well Extremists too. Sort of East meeting West.

This question itself is very sexist ...i wonder why don't people care about issues that should matter in a civilized society ....for instance ...Why are not men in our country civilized enough to not urinate in public places ??? ... ...as far as the argument about 'women dressing modestly to evade unwanted attention or be safe' ...well how about men learning to act civic ...and as far as obscene and vulgar clothes are concerned ...people should not wear them irrespective of their gender ...Learn to respect other women as you respect your own mothers and sisters ...i bet these guys in college campuses who are arguing about so girls should wear this ...girls should wear that ...so they can concentrate on studies....well these guys have shitload of porn in their laptops....why does that not distract them ??

Why should there be a rule only for "dress". So much of nonsense is going on in other parts of the society and nobody has time to be concerned about it but has time to decide what somebody else should "wear".? There is no rule that you should "look" at those exposing female body - who gave you that right to look? There is plenty of nudity outside the campus and nobody is bothered about it except to harass innocents inside a campus. Suppose, while I was walking on a street and I saw two people having ice-cream, can I fight with them saying that you exposed what you were eating and hence you should share it with me or else I have the right to fight? - double standards at its best - hipocrite Indians.

I love modern dresses. And I quite agree with Partha Biswal. The female form - IF in shape - is quite nice to look at. I've been told by quite a few truthful female friends that they like looking at guys. So why does everyone have a problem with looking? However, when it comes to education, there is a flip side to this issue. In college, both young men & women are at an age when they think that they know everything that is good for them. One of their mistakes is underestimating the power of physical attraction. Pheremones are flying all around the place as it is and as if that's not enough, there are nice curvy women all around who you can quite CLEARLY see are nice & curvy. :) In every success story that we hear, there is the common theme of FOCUS & CONCENTRATION. Without these, there is no success. I know of many young men and women, who got distracted by lust and wasted their time thereby scoring badly in the examinations. As long as young people can keep themselves focused on the real goal i.e. success in life, and they can really manage themselves & their time, there is no issue.

Why do people have to dress provocatively? The only reason that I can find is to attract attention, now when unwanted attention comes to them they raise such a hue and cry. If you are modern you do not have to reveal it through your clothes just a condfident and positive outlook would do.

dressing is personal and should be left to the choice of the individual. society has no role there. how much to cover in which season and for what reason should be left to him or her in college or in office. if it is acceptable it will remain in fashion. otherwise it will just vanish. so there is no need for the moral police to intrude into the personal space of individuals.

The type of clothe one wears is a personal decision. Dress codes cannot be imposed. Society should not dictate women.Such repressive measures are like taliban. Also India is a warm country and people dress accordingly. College students are of mature age and understand making decisions. I wore tees, jeans and boots at my college and no one objected.

you cannot stop anyone or restrain his/her own choice. Student went to college for gaining knowledge. But if someone really feeling bad by the sight of such exposure then it is his fault that he is looking at that girls.Now India is going too much in case of vulgarity that u cannot stop anyone.So better to remove the sight from such vulgarity.

Modernity is not about the kind of dresses someone wear it's about the state of mind so that people like you will see creativity instead of 'nudity' in the images of Ajanta Alora cave, so that people like you will see hunger on the bald body of peoples who are rarely meeting their two ends meal instead of taking advantage of their situation by forcing them into prostitution.

Kumar swamy ji so you want to say that hiding everything will lead us to development. It's not what they wearing it's about only that how youu look at them. When a girl wears short dresses people like you just see the uncovered areas which are usually covered instead of looking the innocense or prettyness of their face. I am also very sure that at your young age everytime you wanted to see them but now might be your kids have grown up you don't want to see them like this or being seeing theirself by others. Peoples like you will see dirtyness in the art of khajuraho instead of the creative work done by ancient painters. That's why our country is still like a hell to live for girls. SHAME TO YOU!!!!!

We can allow Modern Wears in campus but with limitations. Many colleges allow only Jeans and T-shirt not freaky fashion wear. Girls exposing her body parts because as she want to ba a center of attraction . She want everyone to notice her. In such a case, she spoils her friends too. Thats how these kind of issues came up. Such kind of people must be avdivecd properly. Modern wear with strict limitations will satisfy both the sides

Any restrictions as such will lead to oppositions. There need not be any restrictions. But, I cant agree totally with Romita. When lady is susceptible for crime, an exposing dressing style adds fuel to it. Students attending an educational institution is to gain knowledge, but not for gaining eye-balls. Sorry, if I hurt someone's feelings.

Well, can't speak for Romita but I am definitely going to feel what I feel. I will probably give her a look, appreciate her sense of fashion, maybe even hit on her if I am feeling like it. It's natural but for all of my feelings, should I impose a cross-nation ban on someone's personal freedom? How about I impose a ban on people for eating what they like? How about I come to you someday and tell you to stop driving the car that you drive because I don't like it? You see? Personal freedom! I read this really funny t-shirt quote that sums up your collective attitudes. It goes, "Please ask your boobs to stop staring at my eyes". Now, don't go impose a ban on me for saying the 'B' word.

Nicely done, Romita. I am not too active on Toostep but if educated, "urban", broad-minded Indians supporting global growth, economies and businesses start talking about too much "skin", I am not sure I want to be too active here. Like she says, look at people for what they are and if your sensibilities do not agree with someone's fashion sense, choose not to look at them. It is because you let someone "exposing themselves" affect you that you even bother talking about stuff like this. Also, there's a difference between lechering and appreciating, if you know what I mean. Ask yourself this. In a free country that's been free for more than a 100 years now, do we really want to be policing society, like Muthalik did?

It's such a pity that despite being modern in many areas Indians still have that narrow mind. It may be the main reason for lagging behind in many areas. To be much straght forward, here is my opinion about the guys who are strongly supporting opposing the modern fashion wears, if they would have been born in those tribals of africa where they donot wear any dresses they could have felt uncomfortable even in front of mother.It shows their state of mind. The reason for being vulnerable to women who are modernly dressed is because those things which was hidden is now exposed. Human beings are always curious to only those things which is made hidden from them. So I think there should be more free society.

- "Shame to indian culture"? those who site this reason, for them indian culture must be only less than a century old. If it was not for the concervative Brits Indians would never have felt so ashamed that they feel now.
- Distract your concentration? Come on grow up, so when you see flesh in the work place ( where you are supposed to deliver 100%, a 40% passing doesn't exist over there), afterwards... what are you going to do? quit job or start a politikal rally?
- "Colleges are not places for fashion"? If not at college where else would a boy or a girl discover his/her individuality? long haired boys or short skirt why should they not be allowed?
- "Can people accept their mother/sister wearing such dress in public!" Our grandmother's or their grand mothers used to show more flesh. Showing midriff was not considered vulgar, but today i see people ogling at them. Poor people few decades back could hardly afford to have clothes to cover their bosom. So does that mean our forefathers where uncivilized (well the right word i want to use her is thrarki).
- "GOING TO COLLEGE IS TO LEARN,GET A DEGREE..." So does that mean you should look ugly and unattractive? I believe every person has the right to look beautiful. There are enough laws to punish those who expose too much flesh. Why do we require more restriction than that has been acceptable in social life apart from college?
- "I hate them.." Friends can you smell some jealousy ?
- "spoil society..." Are you suggesting that in order to hide the immorality of men, girls should be declared immoral if they show flesh? My opinion is that we should not restrain mens eyes from seeing flesh. The more the restrain, more the revolt.
- "more sex in college..." People have sex, no matter if they show more flesh or no flesh publicly.
*** the above expressed views are my opinion, and i could be wrong. I wish every body could have been beautiful :), But that would make no body beautiful :(. Guys, being an artist i had been in close proximity with female and male nudity. So my views are very different from normal people.
