In India, men don't touch women unnecessarily. So Obama kissing on cheek is unrelated to this topic. After coming to US, people get used to hugs and kissing on cheek.

Comments above prove that. <br /><br />The governor's intention might have been or might not have been wrong. The journalist might have felt odd. She had e mailed the governor and had conveyed it. Governor had also apologised. Now, even after apologising, why is the journalist and media still crying? Are they not understanding that we common people are educated enough to understand it was either cheap publicity gimmick or it was to divert our attention? <br />Sindhu Devi Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13837319989457099569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-4185546602554599032018-04-20T16:59:41.648-07:002018-04-20T16:59:41.648-07:00Thanks for your comments Yashi.Thanks for your comments Yashi.SGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790347071764332430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-53158115258776955472018-04-20T02:05:38.570-07:002018-04-20T02:05:38.570-07:00As I was not there so can not make any comment wit...As I was not there so can not make any comment without knowing the true facts S but being a journalist I will say that people should know there limits S...Vineeta Yashsavihttp://mynomadicexperience.blogspot.in/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-9849714151114714322018-04-19T21:12:18.002-07:002018-04-19T21:12:18.002-07:00Thanks for your comments Rajesh.

And it could be possible that she is trying to make best from the situation. But since we are not at her place, we cant comment. But for sure politicians should meet people professionally, especially when the meet is professional and not personal!Shesha Chaturvedihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14602714942699492851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6636808797927234183.post-32312073271803958252018-04-19T11:35:07.406-07:002018-04-19T11:35:07.406-07:00Thanks for your comments Mr. KP.

I agree with you Ms. Lakshmi has every right to make a fuss. My question at the end of my blog post was will she do the same “fuss” if Obama did a kiss or hug to her. Will Ms. Lakshmi say that her “karpu poiduthu” (for non Tamil speaking people the translation is “Oh my God my chastity was stripped away by his kissing or hugging me). If you say honestly that Lakshmi will cry that her chastity was stripped away by Obama kissing her cheek, I will openly apologize to you and to Ms. Lakshmi.<br /><br />Kalpanaa, please visit here as often as possible.
