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…
U are not wrong, some men are really perverts. I feel the cab/auto drivers are
.
out to have some cheap thrill.
In my country, drivers will stop for males if they are waiting before the ladies, exception if the lady is pregnant or with kids, then the guys will let teh lady take the taxi. I do the same too.We, ladies, can spot a pervert driver too. I wont take his taxi, same with my friends.
Pity u guys there
So nothing to do with divinity lol..if only women are divine, it will be disaster!
And if i standing after you and the driver stop to pick me up instead, I will never take his taxi, i will tell him to let you have it first. it is fair.

Well…I do not know if pervert is the right word for that…but we can the same here in UAE but its only because they get a little extra tip from them…rather than us….who think the taxi fares are too high….heheh…
