Male Bonding !

This one's dedicated to mah best pal Nimish aka Budda Sharma ... (The dazed guy to the extreme left in the pic)

Had a cutout of this article for sometime in my wallet .. too lazy to jot it down ... but then finally managed to squeeze out sometime last night. So here it goes . . .

"There is a joke about male bonding.A man's wife doesn't come home for the night.The man calls up 10 of her friends and all of them say she didn't stay at their place.One, night the man comes home in the wee hours, and the wife calls 10 of his friends to check. Eight say he had stayed at their place , and two say he's still there.

Male bonding has often been misunderstood. There are any number of pop psychology books on male bonding with pictures of men engaged in unconstitutional activity. It exists in chimpanzees, who form groups to fight rivals in the wild, as much as it exists among soldiers fighting a war together,no less wild. Friendship between males is an uncomplicated exercise of getting together for a drink and talking about whether you're getting any.

That the battle of the sexes never takes a break is as true as the fact that a bottle of rum can resolve anything between male friends.For, women friendship is a long drawn out exercise.You build trust over the years and even then you're jealous of your friend's new bling buy ! For men, its a simple matter of love or hate.Hate leads to fistfights and love often springs out of men who hate each other but get drunk one night and declare themselves friends for life !"

Maybe this better explains the stories (rumors!) of the "alternatives" around ..I guess this reaffirms mah faith abt me being an intergeral part of the "just too masculine *ooh la la* and simply too wild *Yabba dabba doooo*" kinda genetic breed !
