It seems, those days Bakrabab (landlords' sons) took advantage of young girls from their mundkars etc.
Also, it also seems, upto to 1961, the 'PAKLE' (Portuguese Whites) were also after young Goans girls or women. And hence they took advantage too. I wonder, in absence of any contraceptive pils, condoms, abortions etc how it was possible to play with girls those days ? Can any one throw some light ?? As for PAPAs, they are traditionally very strict with their children this is true even now. If Papa (father) does not like his daughter's boyfriend the answer to their marriage is definetly 'No'. All above is clearly seen in the following excerps from traditoanl Mandos & Dulpods. == PAPACHEM lisens, assa zalear polle, kazar zauncheak moje kodde.
