Sexting, Arresting...

Chalo. Last night when you are about to sleep, you hear that a plane crashed in Karachi and you get curious if my city is under a curse of some sort. All the three flights that have crashed in Pakistan in the past five months were linked with Karachi somehow. Allah bless all the departed souls and the people who got injured or lost someone in these accidents.

Khair, you go to sleep only to be disturbed by your little sister and your mom who tell you that there is police near your house and to remind you that a plane has crashed. The first thought in my mind is that the religious political group at the end of your street has something to do with planes going down but then I learn the police has cars parked outside my house. I got scared, I thought Zardari post of mine was read and I am going down for blasphemy). However, the police were for my neighbors which gave my active imagination to search for new theories until I heard the real story, this morning.

It seems that old habits die hard. The Punjabi neighbors of ours have sons and one of them tried to threaten a girl and thought he would get away with it. The girl must've been smart and told the police. The police with all of its glory (I mean, those shiny new Hi-Lux) came to our neighborhood to investigate at 0400am. Thanks to a stupid move, almost everyone in the neighborhood was awake. It seems that guys in Pakistan love it learn it the hard way. Under new laws, women have the right to complain about anything which can threat them.

Sexting can be one of them. Recently, a friend told me that he has girls for "doing" it on MMS (and it gets better if you have a touchscreen phone). With hormones all charged up, both parties send each other pictures in their birthday suits. Those "for your eyes only" pictures are usually stored in the phone memory and then "sharing is good" happens. If things get messy, there can be a chance where a girl can report the police about the "indecent exposure" and the complaint would be taken seriously. It can make a guy end up in jail and thats not one very cool place to hang out. Guys can do the same thing but they would not because they think they are plenty fishes in the water.

This topic is meant for guys out there who are acting very irresponsible. These guys forget that they would "kill" their sisters for sexting but they would encourage other girls to do it. They should also know that times are changing and girls are now empowered with law than some years back. The topic at the same is for girls too. They should think twice before making bold steps. It is a fact in the "girl world" that guys are jerk and then they would be stupid about it. It is better for both of girls and guys to keep their shirts on and belts tight on this matter. Sexting is fun but doing it with pictures, it can go severely wrong.


P.S.: My neighbour never "sexted" and later I was told he was investigated for a suspected part in robber (wtf). WOW! What a good bunch of buddies he has.
