Hey..
A bachelorhood is something that everyone of enjoys with passion and will remember with fondness down the lane. Living by oneself, no restrictions, no formalities, no boundaries, unlimited girls to stare at - are precious gifts that will exist only during the single life.
I was talking to one of my friends the other day and we got into a discussion of how women give a benefit of doubt to the married people against the bachelors. Iam of the view that women always tend to give the married people more cushion than what they extend to the bachelors. I have found it always amusing. When I broached on this subject with my friend, she agreed that it was definitely the case. "Trust is better in the case of a married man", she said. "Married men act with more maturity, they know to behave, they know when to stop" - these were all the reasons that she stated for giving that extra cushion for a married person. "It will be a harmless flirt with them."
This offends me as a bachelor.
The bachelors are much more behaved and they dont take advantage of situation that easily. They know that one wrong move and they are done forever. In case of the married men, on one hand while they know that their reputation and family life is at stake, on the other hand they also know that women will think twice before exposing their undesirable behavior. A bachelor ogling a girl at a public place is sure to get a stare or a slap whereas a married man with his wife drooling all over another girl is less likely to be even glared at. This is highly unfair since the married man actually commits a bigger mistake since he is owed allegiance with another woman already.
I dont have anything against the married community. But I dont like the fact that they can always be the nice, harmless people with whom the ladies dont mind anything whereas we bachelors are the bad boys always. Sexual abuses at workplaces are always by married men, if someone noted. Almost never by a bachelor.. Look at Bill Clinton or Phaneesh Murthy or anyone. And the girls always seem to think married people are safe ? Is the marriage a license to flirt with another woman ?
Well women !! for Godssake, there are single men in the city. Trust us. Even if you dont, it is okay. Do not make us jealous by allowing someone's husband to flirt with you. He too was a bachelor just a few years ago. If you dont trust us, you have no reason to trust him now.
Chao..

Shiva...what do you say about single men who flirt with married women ? Guess thats out of scope ?
Is your swipe at married men, or women granting leeway for married men or justifying bachelors flirt with woman ?
My swipe is at married men who flirt with women and women who willingly allow married men to flirt with them. As far as justifying bachelors flirt, I dont think we need that... that is part of life of a bachelor anyways, like being lazy or wearing same jeans for 15 days...
Siva, if men were anywhere the same as marmosets, there may even be scientific reasons why married men especially fathers could be safer. Read this reuters article. It says Marmosets who are fathers have a muted reaction to sexually available females!

You are absolutely right and whole-heartedly second u :)..

Partha, Why am I not surprised when you spring up in the defense of 'your gang'. Forget all this emotional vague stuff that youve mentioned.. we are talking about flirting and not some serious relationships.
And honestly tell me, arent you noticing the difference ? ;)
Shiva I agree with you. Dont know why women find married men more attractive(for want of better word). Either because they may be mature than the single ones (allegedly) or simple because they are more "experienced".
OR..it could just be a women's ego playing out...when she tries to woo a man away from another women ! Gives her the kicks !!
"Well women !! for Godssake, there are single men in the city. Trust us."
Its not quantity but quality we seek :) !!! And the good ones are always taken. Or the taken ones always seem good (??)( there-must-be-something-good-whyelsearetheytaken syndrome) Anyways which city is this again ???? :)
