Kutch‟s geographical uniqueness had apparently carved a distinct identity for its people from the mainland Gujarat. The nature has played an important role in shaping the basic character of its people. The spirit of both women & men seem to be resilient whether they worked side by side in the fields or while women simultaneously handled the traditional household responsibilities. This fact has also been reflected in the numerous love-tales prevailing in and around Kutch. Since in love there exists a partnership between men and women, with one prevailing over the other. However the equal contributions of women in the medieval country societies somewhere in spite of being patriarchal appears to be giving the due space to women too. However the printed sources pretend it otherwise and the tale is complete only when the women emerge submissive. This could be due to the patriarchal influences. The love-tales reflect the dualities and contradictions within a woman's character regarding her individuality and independence. Eventually in many of the love-tales she becomes the victim of brahmanical patriarchy which legalizes the control of her so called 'uncontrolled sexuality. This control perhaps becomes one of the reasons of their obscure absence from the traditional historical sources. I have categorized the love-tales according to the centrality or the marginality of gender as an evolving category which can be identified as struggle between the natural and normative course of action. This also informs on the choice of historically significant discourse, social relations and the event. The love-tales have been largely collected from the used sources, that is, from the collectors‟ collection. The details of which have been described in the notes.
