Sugar and spice and all that's nice

Haha.. Don't fume! I don't mind changing the topic of the previous post to 'Snips and snails and puppy-dog tails'... if u insist!

"...I want my daughters to have exactly the same opportunities as your sons."
-Barack Obama

'..I don’t particular like this trend of marrying off girls this young. What about their own lives and careers? Wouldn’t they want to do something with their lives? Now don’t say they will have careers after marriage. Our ‘culture’ will expect them to do the duties of a housewife also and eventually the strain will make them give up their jobs.
'Wow! Good to know that there are guys who think gals too have ambitions and would wanna pursue with career. Hats off man!

You don't have to be anti-man to be pro-woman.

So here is my post about gals. This is what gals really are.. (read between lines and take tips)

# PINK!!! No topic about gals is complete without a mention to this colour. I truely donno whether pink is 'girly' coz gals like it or gals like it coz its called 'girly'. But who cares? pink is cute, pink is sweet, pink is beautiful, pink is 'girly'..

# Women don't have waterhose attached to our eyes. We don't cry for no reason. But yes! We are (more)emotional and (more)sensitive compared to guys.

# YES! We like shopping.

# We gals share emotional bonding with each other. When one gal is happy, all her friends are happy too and the whole atmosphere is filled with thrilled shrill voices(gals do sound a bit squeaky when excited!) And similarly, when something bad happens to a gal, all her friends get worried.

# Women talk more. YES! But we have the ability to make others feel comfortable, motivated and happy by our words. Women are better at consoling others and giving emotional support.

# We don't go for facial, pedicure, manicure, waxing et al.. frankly I donno what some of these are! Got it from the song in boy's movie.. seems like Vairamuthu knows more about all these than most gals. May be the hot chicks around do it.. but not any other ordinary gal.

# We are NOT afraid of thunder. These tamil movies have created such a wrong idea about this.. so guys don't have a chance during thunder. Then we are not afraid of lizards also. We don't go eeeek! when we see spiders..

# Gals are not behind your money. We've got enough of it. The only reason we smile at guys posing with expensive bikes, minor chains, gold bracelets, ear studs, coolers et al is because.. haha just look at them. We don't wanna laugh out loud and hurt the guy's feelings... at the same time we can't control our laughter. Thus end up smiling.

# To prove his love.. He swam the DEEPEST river! Climbed the HIGHEST mountain! Crossed the HOTTEST desert!!!
She... Divorced him coz he was never with her!
MORAL: Guys never understand that girls are simple..

# Do you know how many questions a gal has gotta face if she comes home late?! You guys have all the freedom.. to even roam on the roads all alone at mid night. So yes! We are jealous of you for this.

# Gals fall for guys who can impress them with their behaviour rather than money or appearance.

# For most gals, family is our first priority. Parents, husbands.. err husband, children are more important than anyone or anything else in this world.

# Gals always think about the consequences before they take any decisions. Sometimes its good.. but at other times its not so.

# Why is it that a gal alone should leave her parents and go with her husband after marriage? Won't she feel sad to leave her parents behind? Completely new atmosphere with totally new people.. the way most women cope up with it is really surprising to me!

# Finally, how much ever a woman expresses her opinion about this male-dominated society, complains, fights, argues.. she finally submits to the man she is married to.
Weirdo Women!



The Dark Side

# Gossips(as though guys don't gossip) But yes, gals gossip more. We don't much chat about politics, spor err.. cricket or the latest in technology(like u guys) We do chat about these also. Gals are always more curious about whats happening in other's lives.

# The unity among gals is not very strong. During happy times we are all close together but during hard times, most gals back off fearing the consequences(as said before)

# Women are not contented.. be it happiness, dresses, jewels(I think the attraction women had towards jewelry has minimised a lot. The 'walking around covered by gold mocking Goddess Lakshmi' is a practise of the past. Women of our age prefer other 'accessories' that can be picked up on the road side shops in T Nagar.) But dresses?! YEAH!! Again, I doubt whether women go behind rich men.. its not true in most cases. Women expect their men to earn enough to afford all these.

# Women have big mouths and sharp tongues. This is quite evident from the mother-in-law daughter-in-law fights that we have always heard of(possessiveness is the main reason, I guess) Though the father-in-law son-in-law relationship is no better, they atleast manage to keep their mouths shut and avoid publicity.
