She packed all traditional dresses and when her daughter landed in chennai, there were not many (or very very few) that still wear traditional dresses outside. I guess convenience and fashion takes over tradition. I am not sure if I would be going out with a white dhoti in the US! I grew up in coimbatore as well and our school (co-ed) had the same policy for all girls (and no full pants for boys as well!) until 8th grade.

Your comment made me wonder what happened to Senthamizh Naatu Thamizhan, if ever there was one.Devihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15090379465037990867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3876540832146663666.post-31220440281058238542008-02-02T01:48:00.000Z2008-02-02T01:48:00.000ZGood on you Devi, everytime I go home to Madras I feel the same. I cannot understand why we have to lose the half sari and other ancient customs.
