Of the evening and events

I had gone for a meeting  with my colleague to explore an exhibition space. We were ushered through a range of rooms with nondescript plates on each door saying who's who.

The walk through the driveway was quite interesting. Interseting looks on 'men's ' faces too eager to talk from the guard to guide to the member secy promising space.

I headed towards the photos on display and my 'male' colleugue said he will come along and 'not leave me alone' at least when it came to uncouth surroundings of the 'government' offices.

That insinuation got me curious and he explained jokingly 'men here have not found time enough to civilize themselves.'

And I could see a clear difference between the ones that fall in my circle of acquaintaines, friends, ex, lover category. Or is it that they have been 'civilized' enough to camouflage the crass?

We walked back to the car and switched on the radio.

And  there Ginnie goes on Meow discussing whether men cheat on women more and why?

And one male caller went on record to say "90% of men" cannot be trusted and that it is the thrill in doing it that justifies all so not done things. Could he be more candid...NAH!

My colleague in question is the most sensible I have ever met. So after the meeting was over we went to Max Mueller and order our most favorate chicken macroni and ice tea..ummmm (you must try if you haven't yet)

We sat there watching a tiny bird, taking calls, eating, drinking smoking, talking of work and other stuff. We got up to leave and walked our way out reading 'au revoir' and 'shalom' and adios and BLIMEY!!!!!!!!the car went missing from the spot he had parked it.

We both laughed and got informed that the car was towed away. Taking an auto we reached a hovel where all such cars find a perch. PHEW! relieved to find the one towed away!

Hit the road again but not before paying three green notes!

Quite an evening!

  1. In my Circle, married people do come up to me telling me that u r 1 lucky dude free to do what you want. It may be true that women are more monogamous than men but I believe that the main problem is not monogamy, if people followed their instincts, there would be no monogamy, and sex would be considered a natural and valuable gift from nature or from their creator. It is a natural instinct to multiply your species by procreation.

    The question here is why men do stray from their committed partners? In my opinion it is the knowing the fact that by nature women are more forgiving and are bound to make a hue & cry about their escapades but ultimately will put in the extra efforts to make the relationship work. It is that surety that gives the men the courage to peruse more trophies.

    Hell…… Give me a women who says “If I even smell you are thinking of another women, I will not only dump you but also burn your balls while you sleep” & I guarantee that person will stick to his commitment like Fly on Paper(pun intended)…… HA Ha ha…… Joy

  2. hmmm...it is again the question that deems deeper thinking. men probably conditioned to skewed power and gender matrix continue to hold on it even when women may be coming out at equal parallel. But again the cases of so called independent women is far fetched and the fact is that they still constitute a minority though we may want to believe otherwise.

    I agree left to itself society would not be monogamous at all and more freewheeling would ensue. So the structure of marriage, commitment so on and so forth simply give a semblance of normalcy without changing the constitution of human beings

    cheers!
