Just for a change...

Last night, me and my best friend from school were chatting on phone... and we "discussed" an amazing topic. Though it was less of discussion and more of a real sarcasm.

I am gonna share that "scene" with u guys.... just to give u a good laugh, for a change ;)

[we are in middle of our usual weekly "gossip" on which school friend is doing what nowadays and who got laid etc and all of a sudden my friend (for u we'll call her AD) started this....]

AD: hey babes... u know... x's GF took admission in IGNOU for MBA
me: who? y? but why would she do so?? I mean x is cool with all those career oriented thing na? what's wrong then?
AD: c'mon girl... he's "cool"... when it comes about "ghar ki laxmi" they all are same.
me: seriously girl... I guess for GF they want a career oriented girl, but not for wife yaar... why why why????
AD: f**k off that thing yaar... you know they take entrance test for IGNOU.
me: (in serious tone)really???
AD: yeah... they ask u... the nailpolish u've applied is of what company?? and then they give you four options
me: and what about specialization????
AD: that would be like culinary skills, household skills, Operation Management and Disaster Management.
me: oh yea that's awesome...

[...and we both burst into a really laughter shower ]
[after a while]

AD: u know what kind of logical reasoning do they ask?
me: k what would you do if ur husband's income is 5k n your monthly expense is 6k? How would you save money?
AD: nice one babes... you r learning...
me: (while laughing) thanx babes...

[after our "all 3 floors get disturbed" laughter... I asked]

me: do u know why people go for girl like her, and not like us?
AD: why?
me: because.... they know that... girls like us would reply that expense question like... Don't worry about that 1k dude.. I'll start working and by that we can save 4k each month.
AD: hahaha... true babes... n that would hurt their "male ego". n anyways with your degree from Symbiosis, you would definitely kick his ass
me: yeah... n then comes the future scene...
AD: what future scene?
me: see... after a few years I would start earning more money... So I would then tell him to leave his job... and he would start doing all household thingie.. n since his current earning is just 5k, he would not have that much education qualification, so being a home manager would be better for him...
AD: then u'll start ordering him.. like A.. make coffee for me, why dinner is not ready yet.. etc etc
me: on dinner thing, he'd say, sorry darling, but I was busy with this xyz serial, they'd a special episode today.
AD: yeah.... n then u'd say, ohhh... u and ur serials...
me: LOL... still biggie... what if he'd miss an episode, n of course, he'd blame me for that, k since u wanted me to make dinner ready by this time, I missed today's episode. Now I have to watch it at night...
AD: babes... that'd affect your life only...

[giggle.. giggle...]

me: this way... there'd come a time, when people know him as AK's husband...
AD: yeah babes... n may be he'd take ur surname as his...
me: but still... why x would go for a girl like y and not a girl like us..
AD: c'mon babes... his love is arranged...
me: WTH!!!!!!!!
AD: yea... I just come to know... It's all for his business and all...
me: cool... but still... question remains the same... why an IGNOU MBA??? If he wants an MBA, he could have gone for some girl from a normal college, even H.L. MBA is good yaar.
AD: may be, his mom wanna say in front of her "kitty party" group, that she got an MBA bahu..
me: whatever yaar... this sucks...

[...and I changed the topic... but still I can't understand this "double standards"]



[P.S.:
1) being a home maker is a good thing, I know, but being JUST a home maker not gonna work yaar... I mean, it doesn't make any kind of sense in today's world.
2) this one is just for a little fun at our side, and thought I should share it. No intension to make fun of anyone out there

  2. that's what I said... that being a home maker is a pretty good thing... but controlling ur skills on to that tip is not good... for both urself and ur family...

    about ego... temme one thing... why anyone should keep any kind of ego in marriage life.. accept ur -ve point as well as other person's +ve point and a li'l bit of adjustment... That's it ( I guess so)

    I think marriage is like being with ur friend 24*7*365... ane jo tame friends jode adjustment kari shakta hov to tamara spouse jode kem nai????

  3. The transition...

    from Male dominated society which just started to go rock solid, since last few centuries & all of a sudden things are being 'burst' by IT wind (nothing to do with symbiosis deg. when i say IT field, lolx...)...

    Every transition is a tough phase... feel lucky to witness it! that's all... ;0)
