A group of desperate bachelors (including myself) were sitting in Al Bake at New Friend’s Colony Community Center . It’s a nice little place which has made its name by selling the finest shawarma in New Delhi. I was along with my friends and we had ordered shawarma and noodles. Meanwhile we talked about certain things and then this topic emerged inadvertently about the Indian men. One friend said that Indian men needs to be more appreciative of the rise of women and one must respect their aspirations which opened the topic for others to chip in. The other one talked about how we must not let them to dictate us which they do in a relationship. The last comment sounded unreasonable and very vague but nobody actually said anything in return to that. Then came the turn of joker of our group who said that Indian men are the most ‘gentlemanly’ in the world with two reasons to prove his point.

First reason being that Cricket is called the gentleman’s game so by the sheer number of cricket aficionados in India, it makes it clear that almost every Indian men is a gentleman.

Second reason is the reluctance of Indian men to say ‘NO’ to women and that is one reason why India is a country of billion people.

We were convinced with our joker’s attempt to entertain us while delicious shawarma had arrived.
