The quintessential Indian Male

The Indian man comes with a lot of baggage. I wonder how they carry on with their lives knowing that they have to be the best. It must be a difficult place to be in!!
As women , we suffer them with our usual elan. However, somedays we get miffed and write a post as this. It in no way means that all of it is not true, at least thats what I feel today!
Here are the qualities of The Indian Man. Please feel free to add some more....

1. I am always right.
2. I will not say sorry for my faults or my mistakes.
3. I know everything.
4. My ego is bigger (bigger than anything and everyone, no degrees here!!)
5. No one shouts at me (only I have the liberty to do it at my whims and fancies!!)
6. I will not contribute to the household duties but often when things do not go my way, I will not stop criticizing !
7. Things always go right when I do them. Others( that means THE WIFE!!) just make a mess.
8. I take all the credit if the kids do well. But, if they don’t , well, mom is to blame!!
9. I can mend everything around the house but i will not ever try to mend a broken heart.

  1. ha ha ha.. this is Erma Bombeck.. i can add and add..
    10. My daru and sutta come free, but your lunch with friends is an indulgence we cannot afford.

    11. Children are to be taken care of by mother and to be credited to the father.

    12. When i buy something, i am planning for everyone else. When you buy something, you are being extravagant.

    13. When i come home late from office, i am working hard. When you come home late, you are bad at time management.

    14. Nothing you make tastes good. Nothing the cook makes tastes good. Nothing anyone makes tastes good.

    15. When i m in bed, i am sick. When you are in bed, its because you dont take care of urself.

    16. When i dont eat my medicine on time, its because you did not give it to me. When you dont eat it on time, you are being careless and asking for attention..

    17. if I am fat, it is age. if you are fat, you are unattractive and dont take care of your health.

    18. If I am sprawled on the sofa, i had a bad day. If you are sprawled on the sofa, you mean to traumatise me by exposing me to the kitchen.
    ...

    i havent suffered all of this, but we all have gone thru some part..

  2. When HE(give the man some respect!!) looks at another girl he is only "appreciating" her. When I look at another man...I am flirting....

    I have suffered this:-)

  4. Addendum:
    20.I channel surf but only to get a better perspective of the current news. The Wife does it only to irritate me.

    21.I am obsessed with what happens around the globe, but have very little time to go through the small things in my life.

    Please keep adding..
