For love ; no matter what the age is
Have you ever seen an old, matured, lovely couple in a public place?
Then,
Have you seen a young teen couple making lovely moments in a public place?
Did you get two different feelings? Did you imagine?
Why did you thought it in a different way?
If you are an Asian, I know most of your views.
We say. We think. We accept, the purity of the love of the matured. We think, “Wow, what a romantic couple. What a faithful couple. Age is not a limit for love. This is the love....” Don't you think?
Haven't you ever seen a long quote about making love by an old couple in a public place? We accept it as the pure love.
But is it ok to see a young couple making love in a public place? You will say it is ok.
But it is not ok to many Asian elders. They blame, they disgust, and they laugh at these teens.
A lovely hug, a delicious kiss, a crazy lovely dialogue.
These are not jokes. These are not unacceptable things. We have to enjoy the life at correct time. Life is too short. We don't know at what time we will have to leave this world. So don't look at the world from your traditional eye. Teenagers have the right to enjoy what they want. Love has no limits.
The only thing elders should do is to make the teens aware on what the limit is. Not to stop them.
We talk about a system change in south Asian countries. Dressing is not the only thing we have to change. We should change our mind towards the freedom we are seeking.
Always try to see the humanity and the young freedom of the teenagers. A kiss or a hug is not an illegal thing. Make it normalize.
The problem is,
Our brown elders appreciate the matured love while complaining and questioning about showing love and protection in public places by young generation.
Don't take every affair as lust. Don't destroy the best age of someone's.
