Sometimes I think people take Quora’s tagline – ‘the best source for knowledge’- too seriously. We have had lame ignoramuses practically spill their guts out, asking questions that should ideally never be voiced in public. On the other hand, we have also had some positively brilliant questions that went viral. But then, that’s the beauty of Quora. But like I said, there are some who take the tagline too seriously, like this chap we are writing about , who proclaimed himself to be ‘handsome, muscular and well dressed,’ who came up out of the blue with a gem of a question: Should I marry a not so physically attractive girl for better chances to avoid nonsense?
Well ladies, is your blood boiling already? It should be. This is the biggest piece of nonsense ever dreamed up by anybody that was not written on an exam paper. But what about the guy who has written this post? Since he has posted anonymously (wimp!) on Quora, and for lack of a better name, we shall call him, ‘The Well Dressed Virgin’.
So, Mr. Well Dressed Virgin,
We suggest you paste the link to the Quora post on your matrimonial profile. It will do wonders to…ahem…enhance your profile. We can’t wait to see the kind of gems you would unearth then. Do post the responses on Quora too.
But all this is very unlikely because if we have guessed right, your matrimonial process consists of your kundli being handed over to the local pandit by your anxious mother, who will obviously be looking for a bride for you. Because, and let’s face it, that’s probably the only way you will ever lose that much proclaimed virginity of yours. But don’t be too sure about that. After all, Indian family values can only take you so far. What if your new bride too has read your post?
After all, your post has been seen and slammed by everybody more than 4000 times. That’s quite a record for a dim-witted misogynist. All in a day’s work for you, of course!
And unless this post itself was meant to be a sarcastic spoof of an average misogynistic Indian man, we are also very glad to see so many Quorans fight back against such disgusting gender stereotyping. And such deliciously sarcastic replies too! It gladdens my heart. Take a look.
