GIRL HAPPY

Skewed sex ratios are part of life in India. Everyone knows how in the northern states they are buying brides from other states cause there are just no women.
It's a bit like that in some of our classes as well. Today was Sunday and we had a day long class with the E-Biz guys. ( this course has modules covering IT subjects, programming and topics like that).Their class has around 50 students 41 of them who are male.

In the middle of class John started harrassing the professor ( General Manager Reliance Logistics!!!!) We were in a Business to Business marketing class and we were discussing the difference between the reseller and industrial markets. That aside, for 20 minutes the boy just wouldn't let the professor speak.He kept cutting him off and all of us were like whats up with John. There was no logic to his conversation because he wouldnt let the professor complete his sentence.

Sarosh ( mad bawa that he is) was sitting right next to us. He tells us in a conspiratorial whisper. "It must be because of the women, he has never seen so many sitting in with him in classes before, so he must be just trying to get the ladies to notice him!!!!!!!" (;

On the opposite end of the spectrum is my dance class. I don't know why Indian men don't want to learn how to dance. They are happy doing their jhatak matak's after a few drinks. But WHY I want to know are there no boys in my salsa class?
Actually it maybe because I treat them badly(; There is one poor fellow amongst us women and he is badly outnumbered. We were doing partnering basics the other day. And the teach bought his friends, but still we had one woman without a partner. So we had to rotate. This ensured that at any point of time different women went without a partner.

So we ALL had to dance with the learner. We were laughing so hard at the end of the class because my friends were like "we just let him do what he wanted and danced along with him". I on the other hand stopped the class because he wouldnt turn me!!!!!!! There is a step where the guy turns and doesnt complete it but turns the woman around first and then he turns full circle. This boy just kept turning himself and so I was screaming loudly in class " You have to turn me"

Someone asked me whether he eventually learnt the step....I must have scared him so much he had better learn it ;)
