Yes.................
Our secret is out.....thanks to those cruel little men in white coats.
We women are suckers for the wardrobe and very few of us can be induced to change it for anything else, like you know..............Sex!
Simply put, in the case of either or survivor, a woman will choose Dior over Durex.
Its something in our genes. As one of my friends rightly put it, if we depended on the female libido for human evolution, the future of the human race would have been in serious jeopardy.
Only a woman who has felt the heady rush of placing her foot into her 80th shoe, or who has shimmied into another pair of jeans can understand what I am saying.
Its the lustful surge of possession that cannot, simply cannot be replaced by other forms of lust. Love at first sight, the desire to pursue and even emotional engagement are the factors of the chase here. The thrill of the chase, the pride of the mirror, the orgiastical sense of shopping in twos and threes, now how is anything going to take the place of that?
So while guys get their thrills chasing the ladies, the ladies are happier in Saks, Bloomingdales or a reasonable Indian version of it in our country.
Now please tell me...............why not?
A man will never make you feel thin.
His colour may not complement your skin type.
He cannot make you three inches taller.
He cannot help you smell nice.
He cannot bring just the right pink to your cheeks or shimmer your eyes up.
He absolutely cannot, hug your figure and make you feel like a Goddess, in flowing chiffon.
So till they dont break the gene code and give us what we want, we have settled for the next best thing.........Barcodes!

Cannibalize!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This post is an ode to someone from whom I learnt this word, Cannibalize.
Cannibalism (from Spanish caníbal, in connection with alleged cannibalism among the Caribs), also called anthropophagy (from Greek anthropos "man" and phagein "to eat") is the act or practice of humans eating other humans. In zoology, the term cannibalism is extended to refer to any species eating members of its own kind.
Now that we have set the meaning clear, i would like to add the following ways in which this term finds further meaning:
1. Life has Cannibalized Art.
2. The art pages and events have Cannibalized all news on Page 3 in page 3 oriented papers.
3. Shilp Shetty has Cannibalized the imagination of a nation which earlier spoke about the weather with more pasion.
4. TV has Cannibalized reading.
5. Polution has Cannibalized our greenery.
6. Social networking has Cannibalized our work hours.
7. Brangelina has Cannibalized a perfectly great hunk and sexy chick into the smug married of the century.
8. AshAbhi has Cannibalized all religious temples and pujas etc.
9. We hope the Tatas can help us Cannibalize the international market.
10. Indiscriminate urban planning has Cannibalized any hope of ever walking down a road/ lane/ area with less than 10,000 people at a time.
cheerio.................
