Are men really perverts?
When it happened the first time I did not even care to bother about it. But when it happened the second time I was with a friend of mine and he brought to attention this view which I shrugged off as rubbish. However a few days later it happened the third time and my friend, who was with me then too, gave the same explanation which I rejected yet again though with a little less confidence. And then over a period of couple of months it has happened atleast half a dozen times and when it happened today evening again, my friend’s words ehoed in my ears and I actually asked myself if men were really perverts.
OK. No more suspense. The event happening I am talking of is the auto-drivers and cab-drivers prefering women passengers over men passengers. Being a male, you are standing by the road side signalling to the approaching auto/cab for hiring but it ignores you, passes by you and stops near the woman a few feet farther. That they do so because the other passenger is a female was my friends’ reason which "initially" I not only found rubbish but even funny - not any more.
I fail to understand what "pleasure" would that driver derive with a women sitting on the back seat (sorry if I got a bit explicit). Or is it that these drivers consider women (naari-shakti) as divine and prefer to have her grace their vehicles - I am surprised then why only drivers (that too of auto/cab) feel the divinity in women?
Anyway, I have now decided to make sure that when I am looking to hire an auto/cab next time, there is no women at even a distance of several feet!Here is a video of one of my fav desi bands…
