Eunuchism - Our perception

Shastri J C Philip has written a series of posts in last one week on eunuchism. The problem, how we percieve it, the consequences and social impact. He also cites case of his friend whose child was born so. A must read for how we see this physical disability.

गिरते पडते वहां पहुंचा तो रोनी सूरत लेकर वह बाहर खडा हुआ था. पूछा तो बताया कि सुबह चार बजे पत्नी का प्रसव हो गया लेकिन बच्चा न नर है न मादा क्योंकि पुरष-स्त्री दोनों लिंग बच्चे के शरीर में मौजूद है. मेरे लिये यह पहली जानकारी नहीं थी इस कारण मैं ने उससे कहा कि वह तुरंत ही रेलगाडी से बच्चाजच्चा को लेकर पास के ही एक शहर के सर्जन से मुलाकात करे. उसने ऐसा ही किया. इधर मैं ने सब को खबर दे दी कि बच्चे की कुछ गंभीर समस्या के कारण उसे बडे अस्पताल ले जाना पडा है.

Read this Hindi post here by Bhikshu. The post is around a month old but I thought it appropriate to tag here even now.

मैं गणित में फ़ेल क्यों हुआ?

Why I failed in Maths ?
Ankur talks about how our education system could have been much better, had it addressed the usage of the subject in daily life.
असल में दिक्कत ये थी कि मेरे दिमाग की प्रोग्रामिंग दूसरों से थोड़ी अलग हुई है. मैं हर चीज को क्यों कैसे करके सोचता हूं. मैंने शिक्षा में एक बड़ी कमी पाई है कि उसमें किसी भी चीज का उपयोग नही बताया जाता है. उदाहरण के लिये हम भौतिकी, रसायन, गणित क्यों पढ़ते हैं? क्या कुछ बनाने के लिये? नही! बल्कि अच्छे नंबरों से पास होने के लिये और किसी प्रतियोगी परीक्षा में चुने जाने के लिये.
