Uma was excited, when I told her that there was a serious discussion in a Yahoo Group (Kochupusthakom5) about thaar (Onnara). I briefed her about the interesting and useful comments from the readers. I stressed that many ladies and girls participated in the discussion. Some of the comments (from some of the males) too were very intersting. This also made it very clear that many (most of ?) Keralites are not aware of Onnara (Thaar). That's a pity, I feel. We all should popularise this simple but excellant undie for women. It's our tradition ! It's Keralite !! It's Malayalee !!! We should protect our culture.
Uma agreed to my views, and told me to write to those people, and the Groups, about my innocent revelations on the subject. She also made a comment that :" We are not against panties. But thaar is different, and better in many ways. That's why let us all promote Onnara/Thaar". That's why I am here writing to you all now.
I invite all your attention to my earlier posts on thaar. Please see the labels below this post, and click on the link "thaar". You'll get informative and interesting facts about thaar. But you'll also feel some of my experiences too - my innocent revelations.
As promised earlier, I shall try to post some pictures. I hope Uma would help me in doing this. Afterall, it would be an effort to educate many "illiterate" Keralites. A humble and simple effort to save our heritage and culture. Await ... for a pictorial account of thaar .. Please bear with me for delays, if any, in my attempt.
