Aren't Men Just Women with an extra pair?


Men. Our partners, our friends, our role models.

They love us, support us, make us what we are. They inspire us, motivate us, pamper us the way we deserve. They spoil us, surprise us, arouse us like no other.

Yet…what about the times when they leave the jars open and slab dirty right after experimenting in the kitchen, just when you had spent an hour cleaning it in the morning?

What about the times when you find the dirty laundry right next to the laundry bag and not inside it?

Why can't men ever seem to find anything on their own? Or anything, unless it were kept in an untidy heap or in a random stack?

What about the times when he would just sit there, procrastinating!


Hahhahaahha.. there are times when admit it, the most loving man in your life gets onto your nerves and it goes the other way too. Sometimes, you too will drive him crazy! And that’s how weird this relationship between Mars and Venus is. This mutual weirdness is what you call as love <3

Anyway, in this post I write about those things which men just wouldn’t do! Things which are below their dignity maybe, things which they do because they are bored, maybe things which drive them really crazy, things which they do or do not do, simply because they are programmed that way!

Well! All women who live with men, can understand how I feel and what I mean to say ;)

Things which Men do, simply because they are programmed that way- 

1. Men just cannot find stuff even when it is labeled, right in front of them, or neatly folded and kept in a stack. My husband; just can’t!  I remember an instance when he just couldn’t find the Sugar bottle, which was kept right in front of him and kept on going, “Cheeni kahan hai? (Where is the sugar jar)” He’d always tell me, “There is order in chaos” and sometimes forbid me from moving his stuff around (which for me would be, setting things from a haphazard mess into an orderly settlement) LOL



2. Men just cannot look around all at once, let us blame their tunnel vision for this. If they are looking at a female whom they are attracted to they go like-



“Heyithinkilikeyou.youareabsolutelystunningithink.maybeweshouldgrabacupofcoffeesometime?”



And they say all this through their eyes in a way which is awkward…just plain awkward! Poor men!And mind you, it is not like women don’t have a roving eye. It is just that we may have cast a glance at your butt without your even knowing that we did. 

3. Lie
It is not necessarily meant to harm you, it something that comes naturally to them. Maybe because they are too scared to upset you with the truth or want to avoid the drama. Little do they know, women are walking lie detectors...and with their harmless lying or hiding facts- they just need to brace themselves up for a shit storm coming their way! 


4.Crack lame jokes

Like seriously lame! *yawns*



5.  Procrastination
 She :" Babe, we gotta go to buy groceries" 
 He: " Ummmm.. babe, can't we go tomorrow, 'cause today I feel like doing nothing!" 
*Aarggghh*


6. Try to aim clothes into the laundry basket





7. Have a basic Two emotion policy (usually!)


Things which Men don’t do, simply because they are programmed that way-

1.     Keep stuff back where they picked it up from, close doors - cupboards - jars, lights - anything!





2.     Take towel to a shower.

 "Babe! where's my towel!?"


3.     Keep clearing up as they cook or do some work



4.     Put the toilet seat down



5.     Remember all the dates, all the minute details



6.     Recognizing all the thousand colours that you see



7. Multitask



8. Following Instructions



Things which Men do, simply because they are bored maybe-



 1. Conduct weird experiments, dismantle stuff.
2. Procrastination
3.  Eavesdrop
4. Aimless wandering
5. Procrastination
6. Binge movie watching
7. Some more procrastination

Things which Men don't do, simply because it is below their dignity-

1. Ask for directions :
 Well, what should I say regarding this? It is a Cardinal sin for men! Need I say more?




Things which drive them crazy-


1. When you shake your head and say nothing happened when clearly, something did 


2. Being questioned or called up more than twice


3.   Not getting a direct yes or a no


4. When we cry too much, too often


 So, Men and women are different in certain aspects and that is how in spite of all their differences they fit together like pieces of puzzle and complete each other. They drive each other crazy, bang doors, speak harsh words, argue, but the best part is that they realise, all that does not come close to the relationship they share.

I've realised that Men can do all that a woman can do, and they do it well! ( Except giving birth because that is not physically possible) Men can cry, men can break down too. Men want an emotional connection and men don't want sex all the time. Men aren't very different from women. They are just women with balls!

  2. I love the closing line so much. It conveys so much. Men are just women with balls! Had a hearty laugh reading and looking at certain points made and illustrations shared. Made for a great read with such a good mix of images and text. Very well paced! Kudos, Beccy🥂

We went to an All Girls School and we turned out to be perfectly normal !

There has always been a battle between two groups, when we were in school. No, it’s not what you think.  I am not referring to Science vs. Commerce or Blue House vs. Green House. I am talking about the students who study at the All Girls/ All Boys School vs. those who studied in a  Co-Ed school. The other battles that I listed above, come to a standstill once we are out of the boundaries of the school. This battle however, gets meaner as we grow in age. Simply because, we all judge the other with our own set of thinking. I am a product of an All Girls School and I turned out to be perfectly normal. And, so have all the other girls I know of. We have often always been told, ‘ You are very different to what we thought you would be like’ or, ‘All girls school pass outs are weird : You however, are an exception’ . Duh! You are all products of your caged brains, who can’t think beyond the bars of that nasty little thing they live in. The problem today lies with...

Sex Ed and its need to be included in the school curriculum.

I recall an interesting conversation I had a few months ago, on board the train, with an Italian teacher. We talked about the challenges that him and I faced in the classrooms. Amidst the imprudent reliance on the internet, extensive video gaming, excessive use of smartphones in classroom; there was one thing that left me aghast and speechless.  He mentioned that one of his student was in a juvenile rehabilitation centre, for attempted murder. I was shocked, beyond my wits. What follows, will both amuse and disturb you. The kid and his girlfriend were spending the night together. At that tender age, you're overwhelmed with a myriad of emotions. You feel excitement, nervousness, trying to seek intimacy. Too young, too silly to know what and how. To avoid being shamed by friends and family, you seek the help of the internet for guidance.  This was exactly what the kid did. Little knowing about the world of fetishes that exist on the internet, he thought that was the ...
