Children perform during a program organised by a local group, X Symbolic, to mark Valentine’s Day in Ilam on Tuesday. 

Photographer: eKantipur

 This is a performance and I don't think there is anything wrong. I don't understand how the title corresponds to this picture.

 Nepali children performed to mark Valentine's day. Don't you see anything wrong with the whole concept?

@hairybicep: Could you elaborate what specifically you found wrong with the picture? 

 I dont see anything wrong with the picture! के लाज? 

 hairybicep.. what's wrong with Nepali kids celebrating it? Valentine's day symbolizes lovve and peace and Nepali haru desperately need some of it at this point of time. Happy V'day guys

yea! what's wrong with the pic? I feel little awkward reading your title though. Just kind of imagining how you would look in real? http://sajha.com/sajha/chat/smileys/m-cool.gif

I am not sure why you guys don't understand the title.

Aren't you ashamed of the poster who has such a narrow mind?

 गब्बर सिंहको जस्तो थुतुनो र ब्यबहार अनि आफ्नु नाम जस्तै तर लुन्ते पाखुरो देखाउँदै "Will you go out with me for a date?" भनेर सोध्दा "एत्रो नि जान्न!" भन्नि जवाफ पाएपछि उठ्या रिस अन्त कतै पोख्नी हुर्मत नभएर यी भुराहरुमाथि पोख्या? लोल!

This is very  good tradition going on Nepal. V day influence for children .....sleep over for teens...............and in prom night.....parents should buy condoms for their children to be safe.......we should learns these type of good things.....say be safe ....play safe.

हेयरीबाइसेप ब्रो म तीम्रो कूरामा सोर्है आना सहमती जनाउन चाहान्छू । कुन चै हींजडा ईशाई "फादर"को नामबाट बनेको यश बीकृती पक्कै पनी आफैमा लाजै मर्दो छ, त्यसमाथी हामी तोरी नेपालीहरू जस्को घरमा २४ ढण्टामा १५ घण्टा बीजूलीनै हून्न, त्यस्ता जनताको भ्यालेनटाईन्स डेमा  यस्तो चुर्की फूर्की देख्दा मलाई नी ऐले लगाईराको बक्सर फुकालर मूख छोप्न मन  लाग्यो।

 mooooo -- jee ho, maayaa ta jaslay celebrate garay pani, ramrai honi, hoinara? fuskayko dimaag ma jasto pani jay pani naramrai huncha. 

They are wearing full clothes and having fun ,don't you think Nepalese kids deserve this or ? .Why are you being shamful with this picture dude ,come on ,wake up dude ! Get some life .....

Our culture sure is changing.  Blame it on globalization.  Each to his own, I say.

IF YOU WANT TO BRING NEPAL TO THE 21ST CENTURY THEN START ACTING LIKE ONE, NOT LIKE A BACKWARD REPRESSED SOCIETY.  IT IS THE SAME MENTALITY THAT HAS BROUGHT THE COUNTRY TO ITS KNEES. PEOPLE WHO WANT TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE COUNTRY ARE SCRUTINIZED BY THE SAME LIKE MINDED PEOPLE SAYING THIS IS NOT EUROPE OR AMERICA..  YESTAAA GADHA HARU LEY DESH KO KE BIKASH GARTHYO... THEY WOULD RATHER DWELL IN PETTY LIL THINGS LIKE THIS THAN LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE. 

"Banana is good. Please, peel off the skin before you eat". This advise is from monekys to we Nepali. 

Different ways to perceive this depending upon your own prejudices.

One way is to say Nepal ma batti chaina, petrol chaina, paani chaina, Valentines day manaunu parne. Jasko singh chaina usko naam teekhe.

Another way is to say It's good that Nepal is picking up on these international celebrations and celebrating love. Love is good for everyone.

Another way is to say. Valentines is such a capitalistic thing sparked off by corporations to promote selling thier goods and services. Any thing that promotes spending money is good for the economy.

Another way is to say, khana launa lai paisa chaina Valentine day manaunu parne!

Best way in my opinion is to realize there are different ways to perceive it.

Amen
