Wow, this repro' is a dinosaur, way back from 2009!!! - my comment below was on a real flamer of a topic that was originally posted in November 2007 & still going strong with 983 comments amounting to terabytes of sane words & insane rhetoric. I don't want to be another blogger to do the same mistake & hence have disabled comments on this - If you have a compulsive impulse to add to Uday's woes, post your comments on the original site below - cheers, V

My
observations on the original post (rather
on the content of Brahmin Ponnu’s statements) – to keep it simple, I will
assume she’s indeed a brahmin ponnu & the feelings indeed are true…
I)
“Familiarity
breeds contempt – Over exposure to a certain kind makes one nauseated – the
insider knowledge causing prejudice”
- Doesn’t
this happen in your company, aren’t the insiders the last choice for the new
post created & don’t outsiders look eminently more attractive than insiders
to the management – this is a similar syndrome.
II)
“Choice
of mate instincts keeps changing with age..”
- At
college I’m sure the lure is of big talking, macho & adventurous guys –
which an average brahmin male may not demonstrate owing to upbringing..
PHYSICAL & SOCIAL QUALITIES COUNT WHEN ONE IS LOOKING FOR A PRINCE ON THE
WHITE HORSE TO TAKE YOU ON A DATE – SWEEP YOU AWAY?….FOREVER?….. THINK AGAIN…
- 5
years down the line, I’m sure ponnu would settle for a Bay area techie in favour
of the college stud who may not have settled as well & earning that well –
MONEY COUNTS WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING TO MARRY
III)
“The
lady’s comments are possibly reflecting the general liberation of minds in
either sexes in this modern age…”
- Perhaps
an indication of a growing & general reluctance to accept limitations in
partners & aversion to compromise.
- May
be polygamy/ multiple partners is making a come-back… (check out the Axe Deo ad where mixing makes babes better….:-))
- Perhaps,
the ever increasing domination of “I” over anything else
IV)
“Brahmin
men caught in a time-warp? – starting to live the stereotypes showcased by
society, films??
- Someone
said this before, buck-up guys, change, work-out, change your attitude to
looks, you have the basics in place, all you need to do is polish the stuff..
- Forget
about the simplicity your grandfather so believed in — he was in a different
era… re-package your body, spirit, get attractive to the opposite sex…
- I’m
sure those who have done/ doing this already see the results, non-brahmin girls
falling for them & yearning for them… (all the above applies still to these
wide-eyed wonders, grass is greener on the other side of the fence)
- finally
it’s an appraisal, part-true, part-crap —- well…take some good out of it….
emerge better… don’t justify & get labelled more harshly…
all
the best…
