Speechless...

I recently came across a debate based on the movie Nishabd, which is the story of a 60 year old man falling in love with an 18 year young girl. The debate was on whether such relationships are justified and whether we should impose restrictions on such relationships.

I think the restriction is justified. I think love between a man and woman is when they both admire each others qualities and things/desires that they have in common or the ways they think and the experiences they have had or want to have that are of mutual interest.

So how can a 60 year old man love an 18 year young girl as a lover does? She is not yet a woman! Won't he look at her and think of someone like his daughter or grand daughter or niece or some one to protect and love as a father figure? How can he be with her and expect to follow and eventually justify his carnal instincts towards her.
An 18 year young girl doesnt have the benefit of wisdom or experience to know if a 60 year old man is manipulating her for his pleasure or not.

If the couple have no such feelings for each other then its not the love/relationship we are talking about, which ends this argument
In a majority of the cases such relationships arise out of attraction, and thus such restrictive umbrella rules were formed. Each case needs to be judged individually. I'm willing to bet that 99% of the time its not love, but attraction; and for that I feel the restriction is justified. The remaning one percent have to suffer the fate of being in the minority until someone hears them out.
