My Sins against Gender-Stereotypes

grrrrrrrrrrr....Tenthousand Bloo blistering Barnacles and thundering typhoons to Avada Kedavra for tagging me in this tag where I am supposed to reveal all those things I have done in my life, which as a guy I am not supposed to do. I thought of skipping this one..but she threatened me tht she wud curse me to wear pink pants for the next dozen years!!! Red shirt green pant and now pink pants!!! God save my wardrobe!!

okay..now wat shud i consider as sin against my gender??!!! Rather i wud list down the sins i've done to my gender folks :D

**Shopping :D I can hear a chorus of cries from my friends when i mention this. I get "visions" as to what desing or color combo dress i would want at a given time and would hunt like hell for that particular design. Whichever bakra accompanies me on that quest would benefit loosing oodles of calories :D Will check every single factory outlet/showroom in Marathahalli and after 2 3 hours of search would call it off postponing it to Koramangala or JPNagar the next weekend. I've troubled them no end..this would be my sin numero uno :D

**Late latif :D I hate to be on time. Yes. Thats an open confession i make :) Again its not that i want to make people wait for me. Its a thrill to start late and rush against time to reach the destination :) JIT methodology :D But my roomies bore the brunt of it. Enakaga train ticket book panitu wl be waiting..wondering whether i wud be making it on time. I've troubled them no end on this. Triple g wud vouch that it continues even now :)

**Home Alone :) I can stay at home for days..without even bothering to venture out. Just give me books..some movies to watch and internet. I wont step outside. How it will be a sin against my gender? Well..none of my friends..that includes my parents too :D can never stay at home for more than few hours together. My mom till date will wonder how i manager to stay put at one place :) she would be the one to push me outside to go out and enjoy rather than staying at home :)

**RomComs :D more than action movies..i love romantic comedies. My roomies were die hard action flick crazy folks. Not that i had aversion for them..but given a choice would settle down with rom com anyday :)

**Risk avoider!! This is one point which i think would tally with this tag title. My dad always made sure that he drilled into me to become a confirmist. But me being me :) would always be the rule breaker. Even then i would never go out of my way to try any risks just to show off or anything.

**Fear :D FDR famously said "We've nothing to fear but fear itself" it was ulta for me. I used to fear everything. "Thenali" kamaloda inspiration gils thaan :D no doubt. I am not afraid to say i am afraid, still:) I used approach things tensely. Mind would be always like riot torn Kashmir..always red alert.. for the simple reason that i can never take failure lightly..especially when i knew i could've done it better. Offlate neria maariten. I have managed a bit to detach myself from my result oriented approach and enjoy what i do more.

Ok...time now to korthu uttufy peepals :)

Dude! :D:D This must have taken a lot of guts to write! But I have to tell u this... there are guyz who secretly or openly LOVE shopping but blame women for over-indulging!

Claps, whistles, howls, etc etc! :) (you can wave to the large crowd like rajni saar)

Count me in for staying "Home Alone" and add some snacks to munch :) It is stupid stereotyping to say it is sin against our gender.
There are people like chennaigirl who can finish shopping in few minutes.[She is real super fast]http://oreponnu.blogspot.com/2010/05/week-that-was.html

ROTFL@Ramesh's comment.. I can't imagine that myself too. Good gils, you took up the tag and so no pink pants for you :) Only green ones :P
But seriously, it's really nice of you to take up this tag :)Thanks for doing it.
I have seen lot of guys who like shopping. My dad is like you, he will visit 100 shops before picking a single cloth. I get so fed up with him.

Not fair gils.. I read your post yesterday & didn't see my name. Why why why (the sudden inclusion I mean) :-D

I loved Ramesh's comment. He stole your thunder. I'm not able to remember anything you wrote..hehe.
just kidding.. I am usually known for stamping my foot at late latifs :) Your shopping had to be #1. You would give all the women in my family good competition!

Introductions First !! Your blog was always a good read for me. Very entertaining. Now,after reading the sins of yours, I would definitely like to show my existense to you. :) Build up lam pothum nu nenakrein..
Your acceptance on being a late latif, well gils, what can I say ?? Many who does that don't even recognise the inconvenience out of it. Ignorance is not bliss in this situation :) Good that you know what you do. I like it.

I chose to visit your blog on the day you write a tag! :D

Nice job, Vidhya, but I wonder how any of this is a sin against the other gender?

Vidya
Vidya said…
Ohhhhhhhhhh, wait a second, these are sins against your own gender!! Sorry!!

why don't you write "Gossiping" as well? You know as well as I do that men are good at that as the women are but just don't admit to it! :D

The Great gamblers

Algorithm of an arranged marriage: 1) Check the foto if like it goto step 2 2) Check the horoscope if it matches goto step 3 3) Visit the gals/guys house for free snack session and have an officially sponsored violation of privacy with the sort of questions that would've made you beet red in anger had the situation been anything otherwise. 4) If step 3 finishes satisfactorily..get the 2 bakras married!!! There are many people around who dont believe in placing bets or who consider gambling as an evil. But still they have no qualms in going in for an arranged marriage. It still beats me..how can one judge a person with just a few minute talk and above all get CONVINCED that he/she is going to be his life partner??!!! Even to select a team mate we have 4 rounds of interview!!! Before you guys jump on me..let me hide behind the disclaimer. I've absolutely no issues with this concept which has worked well for my parents..their parents..relatives...and majority of people i knew and ...

Seasons under sun...

Got this as a forward. Made interesting reading and made lot of sense too :) check it out. Just two years after our marriage, hubby brought up the idea of asking mother to move from the rural hometown and spend her remaining years with us. Hubby's father passed away while he was still very young. Mother endured much hardship and struggled all on her own to provide for him, see him through to a university degree. You could say that she suffered a great deal and did everything you could expect of a woman to bring hubby to where he is today. I immediately agreed and started packing the spare room, which has a balcony facing the South to let her enjoy the sunshine and plant greenery. Hubby stood in the bright room, and suddenly just picked me up and started spinning round and round. As I begged him to put me down, he said: "Lets go fetch mother." Hubby is tall and big sized and I love to rest on his chest and enjoy the feeling that he could pick me up at any moment put the...
