Man, that's harsh - but it seems quite widespread in India. People have 
forgotten the more ancient history which celebrates both the male and 
female form.

After interacting with a few Indian Lug's I have to concur - this one is 
particularly well moderated, there seem some really decent people here.

I have noticed that there does seem to be a bit of a mob / power 
mentality in some groups - but I guess it's up to people to challenge 
that or just let the lugs fail. There seem to be quite a few failed / 
dormant groups too!

Personally, I will keep posting to try to "do something about it" with 
whatever time I manage to spare!
