Probably one of the few times I actually love your avi RTH!😛
Arwen - that dude in your sig that is laughing reminds me a lot of James Lafferty!
Shak - Never seen a single episode of either Madhubala or PV and I don't ever plan on either. In one the chemistry is non-existent and in the other I have no interest in watching annoying vampires. On that note, I still love Drashti and Sanaya!! <3 I actually find it quite interesting how you follow so many Indian serials. Most guys I know hate all the drama!
@All: Thanks for all the advice peeps!🤗
Just to clarify - I wasn't referring to any of my family members. Despite growing up in an extended family, I never had any crazy restrictions placed on me. No-one to tell me what I should and should not wear. No aunty giving me weird looks if I choose to wear a dress or a skirt. I come from a family that always encourages girls to work, in fact if you choose to be a housewife then you'd get them shooting you down with questions. I suppose because I've been brought up with such an open-minded family, (who by the way is very traditional when it comes to a lot of things), I find it very strange when people come out with really old-fashioned statements e.g. boys ought to take more care of their parents then girls because well, they're boys and girls should stick to helping out in the kitchen. 'Cos, you know, it's their duty.
Absolutely PATHETIC!
The worst one was "My mum gets upset if I don't pray 5 times a day ".
Me: What about your brother? Does he pray 5 times a day too?
Her: No. Mum doesn't get angry at him. But he's a guy. You know what they're like. Always busy with his friends and games. o.O
It was bad enough hearing guys think this way but the worst part of it all has to be hearing this from girls too!!
Let's just say these are people who I couldn't avoid even if I wanted to. I absolutely hate the feeling of being judged by someone to that extent. Yes, I have a lot of friends that are guys, yes, I go out more than you do but why should I be judged for THAT? But just to clarify, I don't hate these people at all. For majority of the time if we avoid certain topics, we are more than capable of sitting together, having a laugh maybe and not pulling each other's hairs out. But hey, when I'm around, controversy is never far away! :P
Arwen - still working on perfecting the art of taking in large amounts of BS silently.
Apologies guys. Rant over! It's just been bugging me for quite a while now!
