Wikipedia says HYPOCRISY is, simply put, the pot calling the kettle black.
something weird happened today... the back story first...
i have been telling everyone i meet for the past week what hypocrites guys are... well most of them... let me explain... most of them want a bombshell to hang out with and to date but when it comes to marriage all they look for is the girl next door... read a 'sati-savitri'!!!... talk about being double faced... so just to confirm my belief, i had an argument about this with one of my guy friends who didn't even bother to deny the fact that he wanted a simple girl when he gets married... but the list of girls he would date made me wonder if i should ask him to make a list of wannabe item girls!!!... i wanted to give him one tight slap... but then i realized how pointless it would be... men will be men!!!...
so back to the weird thing... today's HT City carried an article on the very first page called "GIRLS MEN MARRY".. 3 people i met in the past week and had this conversation with called me to ask if i had read the piece... and this is what made me wonder if someone was reading my mind... some guy was quoted in the article saying -
"For recreational purposes, men are willing to experiment with women. And the wilder the better. But for wives men want shy, relatively less qualified and economically dependent women. A woman with these qualities will keep her man happy."
geez... talk about astronomical egos!!!.. during the past week i had wondered if my anger on the issue came from the fact that im not a simple homely girl from the 19th century... but then after reading this particular article i knew i wasn't the only one who couldn't care less about these bloody two-faced creatures!!!... i also happen to know some people (read guys) who went on to mention that girls shouldn't smoke... but its ok for guys to smoke... well it ain't good for anyone but to say that just because im a girl i shouldn't smoke, made my blood boil!!!.. FUCK YOU!!!... so basically im just bothered about guys being such hypocrites!!.. but then it invoked a deeper question... aren't we all??
most of the profiles i've checked out on orkut, show hypocrisy as the major turn-off... mine included... but haven't WE ever been double-faced??.. we have relatives we pretend to adore but deep down they make us cringe... we have colleagues that we talk to so nicely when actually we want to make voodoo dolls and poke pins if we thought it would hurt/harm them... we are so friendly to superiors and people with authority if we think they might help us in some way... we have all harboured ill-will for someone or the other at some point of time but had to smile at them and not hint at our true feelings about them... some people would argue saying that's called basic manners... but then bitching about them behind their backs isn't very nice manners either... so to sum it all up i guess all of us are hypocrites sometime in our lives but that definitely doesn't stop us from maintaining that hypocrisy is their major turn off!!!...

P.S.- this doesn't mean im changing my turn-off's on orkut!!!.. lol..
