Ok, folks — I’ve long since lost track of what exactly is at issue in this thread; it’s time to move on.

Question, if you and say, your mother, are sitting on a New York subway or Delhi to Chennai train, and you happen to be seated right across from n another man and that man stares directly at your mother's breasts for more than a minute, what would you do, say or think?

I know you didn't ask me, but I just have to say that my mom would beat the fucker (sorry Jasmine) down, cuss him out, and then, when she's done with him, turn him over to the authorities. My mom could beat up your dad.

Alright, HMF and others of his ilk, I assume you have love and respect for your mothers, sisters, daughters and wives (if you have any). Question, if you and say, your mother, are sitting on a New York subway or Delhi to Chennai train, and you happen to be seated right across from n another man and that man stares directly at your mother’s breasts for more than a minute, what would you do, say or think?

to demonstrate that you have yet to learn how to fashion appropriate speech around women.

You're under the impression I'm here to gain approval by worrying about what's "appropriate"

disparate commentors and in point of fact I am NOT UAE.

I understand this, I used your quote to disprove her contention.

Here I enter the thread to defend your exceedingly imperiled point of view

As Copernicus' heliocentric view was also imperiled, his views required no one to defend them.

Its a free spirited commentary on my slammin' bod and possibly my walk, nothing more, nothing less.

exactly. and your qualification of his "hawwwtness" automatically pulls him out of the running for creep of the year award.

But even if a guy does want to bag it, telling me that I am bella figura or lending me gear and then walking is a brilliant move.

No it's not, unless you've already (independent of his actions) considered the possibility of bagging it with him, then lending you the gear only ratifies the foregone conclusion already in your head. You act as if "doing nice things to appease women" is some kind of breakthrough technique, males (especially desi ones) have been force-fed that nonsense through 80s and 90s tv sitcoms for decades.

HMF, you are an ungrateful flea! Here I enter the thread to defend your exceedingly imperiled point of view and you use it as an opportunity to demonstrate that you have yet to learn how to fashion appropriate speech around women. Although I am really beginning to suspect that you see us all with paper bags over our heads, the two quotes that you have so ingeniously placed side by side come from disparate commentors and in point of fact I am NOT UAE.

Your choice of educational speech aside, I seriously doubt that some haawt Latino cruising through midtown Phoenix at three o clock in the afternoon expects me to sack it with him, or is even going to stop to get my number. Its a free spirited commentary on my slammin' bod and possibly my walk, nothing more, nothing less. But even if a guy does want to bag it, telling me that I am bella figura or lending me gear and then walking is a brilliant move. I'm giving you free game, Jack. Y'all stop being so surly..

Your assumption that we like it when it comes from good looking men is wrong, just plain wrong.

And of course its even more exciting if the guy is hot!

In the climbing community guys will share their resources or lend you their favourite rope, when all another guy would get is a view of their back. Its such a boost and it makes your day. The world would suck if the boys lived in fear of being real.

How exactly is that being real?

Didn’t Seinfeld already break this down for us?

Women want those who can work on the body (doctors)

Men just want the body…

perfect :)
