Font "Warp 1" was not found.The power of the cleavage

This is a post my parents would not approve of – but they are not in this plane now.  This is also a post my sons wont approve of – but since I have a history of embarassing them, one more wont hurt them.  I told ya fellas, not to read Ma’s blog.  If you snoop, not my fault.

Women are getting thinner and thinner.  Soon we will be surrounded by girls who closely resemble – no, not their parents, but sketch pens.  I am a Punjaban who lives in Haryana and do like to see curvy women.  I strongly suspect that Kid#1 got floored by my DIL’s natural assets scintillating conversation and intelligence.  I do not understand this obsession for a size zero figure.  Being slim is good, being fit is excellent, but having mosquito bites for a chest is tragic.  Dont blame me, I have been watching Kareena Kapoor and other filmy types this weekend with my generously endowed BFF (best female friend), and we both agreed to the following

1. Men are necessary in one’s life

2. Getting men to behave like pussywhipped morons agree to you or jump when you want them to help you is tough.

3. The best option is to dazzle them with a cleavage show, and voila – problem solved.

When I was in college, I was terribly short of attendance, marriage and baby ensured that.  So I did what any girl in my situation would do – whine.  One of my best male friends was gay, and I am deeply indebted to him for my clothes sense and also for his ability to simplify the opposite sex for me.  Oh he also taught me to be feminine and not the tomboy I was born as.  He got tired of my whining and simply took me aside and tutored me on the womanly art of flirting.  Sebastian, my love, what you taught me has worked for me time and again.  It ranks way up there and is as useful as breathing.

Seb : Girl what you need is a padded push up bra and a low neck Tee

Me : Why

Seb : (with eye roll) You want attendance?

Me : Yeah, I need to pass otherwise my Dad will file case against hubby.  My kid will be having a jailbird for a father.

Seb : Why do you Literature types love drama so much?  Just do what I tell you. Duh!

Me : (doubtfully) Ohkay ….

Seb : What okay … lets go shopping

So we went shopping and picked up a orange Tshirt that my mother would’ve burnt and a black bra to wear under it.  Then he taught me the subtle art of bending just enough to show a bit of cleavage and bra while talking.  When he decided I had got the trick, we went to the attendance clerk, where I pleaded my case leaning over his desk, while Seb and two others added their words to my plea.  I got my attendance and I learnt a valuable lesson. 

I dont think Size zero babes can make such an impact.

  9. Nancy on September 9th, 2008 7:16 am

    He he! There was a time when the size of the breasts was not only related to sexuality, but also to looking motherly!

    But I guess now the boys will look at your eyes when they talk to you ;-)

    If they grow any more, I might overcome my hatred for plastic surgery and put them under the knife! There’s only so much.. er.. flesh that a 5-foot frame should have to support!

    Is it the four by four hangover which prompted this blog.. hmmm i wonder. but then again funny very funny. works almost every time for the gullible Indian male am sure. Then again i wonder would it for some of us out there for whom a glimpse of the ankle or calf or neck might do the trick, but definately not if that happens to be huge. Guess very few of those types out there. By the way Sebastian.. TRAITOR.

    LOLLL, no he was a very good friend. He was so empathetic and patient – pity he was gay, had no hetero tendencies. Hmm may be that was the reason

  24. Di on November 19th, 2008 12:34 pm

    Hilariously funny Ritu…and I must share this with you…I was talking to a Punjaban male and he told me that he was a butt man…if the base wasnt what he liked he didnt bother to even look at the face.I of course politely enquired whether when he was introduced he turned them around…which he laughed off. But yes, I have seen men have all sorts of quirks…butts, boobs, legs,…one guy even tried telling me that he first noticed the smile…like hell….yeah.


    ROFL, one told me it was the ankles that were his weakness – I laughed at his face. Who’s he trying to kid anyways

  25. Di on November 19th, 2008 12:39 pm

    On a more serious note, when I train Hr Secondary teachers on communication skills,and do body language as part of it..I always make it a point to talk about the triangle…the mouth and the eyes as a focus point esp when male teachers are talking to adolescent girl students. When I was in school I had a teacher who looked only at the chest when he spoke to his female students…it was most disturbing.Those were the days when we just giggled about such things and pretended it didnt matter. Today I would have reported it as sexual harassment.

    Cant bring up sexual harassment in the corporate world … its like committing professional hara-kiri. I deal with it my way – icy cold confrontation. They pretend I misunderstood, but keep their eyes fixed on my face next time LOL ;)

  26. sakhi on April 8th, 2009 10:38 am

    :D :D Never thought about “the assest” in this perspective ;)

    Sakhi, these assets are doin’ well, economic slowdown or not!!!

  27. manushee on May 14th, 2009 6:36 pm

    ..this piece is awesome! i am still a tomboy …sigh!i so need Sebastian in my life!!

    Yeah, gay male friends are the best!

  28. Deepa on September 9th, 2009 2:42 pm

    Nice post. I read the one on the whale and mermaid and both have connected in my mind. Having been cursed with the word ‘plump’ and ‘chubby’ for as long as I remember, both these posts were balm to my soul! If there is one thing which I’m proud of, its the twins. That was one thing which my uber slim friends couldn’t compete with. (two things actually. Other being my superlative grey cells!):)))

    You know the uber slim women do not have to cultivate grey cells. They become so shallow most of the time …

  29. Poornima on October 2nd, 2009 11:36 am

    Hilarious….

    ROTFL

    I was so ignorant about people taking such things(the assets)so seriously until recently I heard a close relative(female of course)talking about her would be DIL in a similar way. In this case MIL was more worried about the well endowed DIL..was wondering(loudly in a family gathering..)if DIL was way too much blessed with XL chest measurements..She was also heard ranting away that the couple looked odd when they stood together (the son is like a stick)

    MIL:”God knows what made him fall in love with this girl.She looks too huge for him..sigh”

    I badly wanted to give her an aside ” C’mon lady..your son is not blind..wink wink..he is wise”*wicked smile*

    chao

    Darn right! The woman is having a bad case of insecurity! The guy knows what he wants … smart fella
