People in our community are open and speak their mind. They don't think polishing or sophistication is required in communication.And what does this say about our community?
Wondering, if this is relevant to the discussion?

Following could be a few reasons:
1. They are traditionally very shy
I don't think Jats girls are shy or timid by any means, they're in fact very daring at times and take fight by horns.
2. They are not allowed by the family to mix-up so easily with outsiders/strangers
How family would know that their girls are mixing up on Jatland? Rather this is a platform where they can share their ideas and viewpoints with freedom.
3. They are comparatively less computer savvy
Disagree! Nowadays if someone don't know Computer or Internet .. generally treated as illiterate.
4. Often they have to be occupied with household affairs like 'choolha-chowki' and 'gobar-buhari'
This affairs are passe .. I don't think any family practice these things in city moreover girls are losing interest in house-hold works and cooking in particular.
5. They do not have much interest in matters like politics, economics and social reforms etc. which form major part of discussion on social forums
This is the reason that makes sense. Rarely here girls take part in important matters like these, they generally are indulged more in Love or Romance related stuff like sher-o-shayri, romantic movies n' songs etc.
5. Last but not the least - general tendency of our men-folk to misbehave with them
Slightly agree but not much cuz' Jatnis are too furious and if somebody dares to misbehave he gets punishment without any delay.
I disagree most of your points here VP Sir; please read my views in red.
Now in my point of view, main reasons/points of their less presence on JL and participation in discussions are Lack of Interest, Attitude Problem, Take things personally, easily hurt and creates scene often & Lack of Intellectual ability etc.
I know many fingers will be pointed to me by many Jatnis here n' I might be labeled as male chauvinist by feminists here!

Guys,Very nice reply.
Let's assign ranks to ur points to make it simple and effective for the target audience
1. Lack of Intellectual ability & Attitude problem.
2. Unability to conclude & arrive at mutual consensus, rather locking horns and derailing the topic, and having a destructive approach rather than solving it out with a cool head. Kisi baat ko jaayaz tarike se solve karne ki bajai... dusare ki bejjati karke/tamasha bana ke argument conclude karna yahan ki adat ban chuki hai..(and that's equally applicable to gents also).
3. Insensible post/thread sometimes, that others might not be intrested in. Forgeting that the whole world is watching them.
4. Easily hurt and retaliating then with stronger words and making things ugly for themselves and to the person whom they are replying to. Which again provokes reciprocation with more foolishnes.
PEACE ~
Aman ki Aasha...

Guys,
One of the ways to solve this is for a female member (simply because a female would be more open to a female) to take initiative and collate the reasons from fellow female members. The Jatland core team can then decide on the ways of positively discussing the problems and finding a resolution.
An immediate step that could be taken (in the meanwhile) is to nominate a "female member" as a moderator and involve her in the decision making on the "reported posts" from females.
I think, encoraging women participation would be in the intrest of all Jatlanders. It would help Jatland's maturity and growth.
Guys,

It is a good suggestion. I remember a lady member (Smt. Sunita Hooda) used to be a moderator. It is still a mystery why she resigned. Was she made to resign due to some peer pressure or pressure from other moderators?? I remember none of the lady members has ever bothered to raise any question about the exit of one 'female moderator'. Isn't it a reflection of their apathy towards their own cause and lukewarm attitude towards JL.
What is interesting is that the interpersonal situation between men and woman participants is quite similar to the real world situation as it exists in Jat community.

3. I humbly disagree that those who are not computer literate should be considered as illiterates. It is an utterly wrong perception. Going by that argument, most of our scientists, Professors, scholars and litterateurs, who are hardly computer savvy, are illiterate. I am afraid they know much about PC except typing, saving and printing the files in MS Word. (m sure de no nothin abt chatter-box lingo lik c ya, n, tc, ****, luv, luvin, wtf……n …f**k*n etc.. )
Dear Singh Saahb
I m completely agree with U.
So far as I am concerned, I've been using the computer from the last 8-9 years. I've been the proud owner of the PC from the last 8-9 years. I am a freelancer translator and professionally doing the job work from the last 4 years. Obviously, I've an internet connection and it is 4 yrs old too. The main thing is that I don't have any knowledge about that particular glossary which U mentioned above(c ya, n, tc, ****, luv, luvin, wtf……n …f**k*n etc...). Though I face it many times. And personally, I don't want to know it. So your reply to Mr. cooljat seems very logical to me, personally.
Mr. Gulia has rightly observed that some female members also misbehave with their male counterparts. Ironically, some females are active members of some fringe groups of JL with a manifesto of creating some nuisance value and some gullible girls/ladies have been working on the behest of ring masters. At times, some female members react in an abrasive manner to innocuous comments. Except for a very few wayward philistines, most of the boys are innocent and respectful towards elders and ladies. However, some of them may not be very articulate in their expressions but that cannot be construed as misbehaviour. It becomes incumbent on the female members also to show some maturity and not to over-react at slight provocations.The topic was started without any input from the person who initiated it.
I would like to mention here that female members also misbehave here and it has happened with me. topic .
