As we are all eagerly looking forward in welcoming the brand new year, one should not also forget the fact that we are at the end of the decade. Lot of happenings occurred in these past ten years the most remarkable achievements were seen in the field of technology. Not only, has the world seen a significant growth in the advancement of science and technology but also in sex and relationships. I just want to share ‘The Three’ of the decade.
Mobile Phones
Mobile phones in the early years of this decade was seen as an unnecessary element but now at end of this decade it has become a part of our lifestyle and one can’t even imagine a day without mobile phones. It has come a long way from being just a device to ‘talk and end’ to smart phones-which can do a lot than just ‘talk and end’.
Though the Social networking sites grew only in the middle years of this decade it has seen a tremendous response in the end. Gone are those days when people used Internet only for gathering information.
Sex and relationships
The way we see ‘sex’ has changed a lot in India. Sex the word itself which was considered as a taboo has changed gradually in this decade. Words like Gay, Lesbian; heterosexuality has become common words of expressions. Another factor is the rise of Divorce cases, relationship these days soar much earlier than expected because of several factors like:
Life in Metros: People who live in the urban set up are much more egoistic than the people in rural places and one of the reasons behind this is quite obvious, education. Education has definitely helped our lifestyle to reach a new level but not our relationships; it only gives us the unwillingness to accept our faults and makes us even more egoistic. Factors like self –centeredness refuses to move away and paves way for separation.
Stressful life: We are living in an unconvincing world which always expects more from us and never let us to look after ourselves. Our modern world has given nothing but frustration and tension and gives away very less time to think about emotions. Relationship is all about spending more time with the spouse but very less time is spent for highly sensitive intimate relationship and that is the core reason for the relationship to go downward spiral.
Talking about relationships one cannot ignore about Live-In Relationship which has also become more common in recent times. The decade has shown us new a new perspective towards life and more importantly it has been a path breaking decade.
