“Sree, why you always amidst gals?”
“Sree, how the hell do you manage to get ladies to read the crap you write?”
“Man…you are such a perfect example for magnetism! A Pink Panther!” π
“What is there in this post that gals liked? Tell me how to get women to read my posts, you A$$oul…!!!!”
These are some of the questions that I am asked by most of the people whom I interact with on a day to day basis, be it online or offline! π Even I am astonished, to the level that I do not have a pakka answer to these kind of queries…
To be frank, as you know I am no pervert who goes on to do stuff or write things, just to get to know gals/women or to get their attention. π Once I get to know them, I flirt…thats a different story…!
It is true that I have more of gal friends than guys if I sit and get my mathematics right! In my office too, its the same story. How? Why? I have no idea.Β
In my internal corporate blog, I did an analysis. I took an average of the last 5 posts that I had posted. Out of the 45 different ppl who commented, 37 were ladies. Out of the 8 guys who commented, only 6 were regulars and 2 asked me one of the above mentioned questions.
I talk mostly to women in my household…be it my granny, mom, sister (include her friends too…) or aunts…where there’s no end to the talks!! I call my mom, its a minimum 10 mins call…if I call my aunt, min 30 mins….if I call a gal friend, its either too short or too long (depending on her mood! :D)…if any of these call me, its a missed call!! π
It’s not that I don’t talk to my dad or uncles, but our conversations are limited to sports/politics/business/money/cars! Our answers are like synonyms in a thesaurus…one word and to the point.
The office guys/gals who follow this blog also wonder as to how I managed to get more lady commenters than males. I seriously dunno. I did do nothing special! π Most of my lady commenters here I presume didn’t visit this blog cos I visited their blogs first, but I bet its the other way round. But in case of most male bloggers who visit and comment here, I visited most of them first or they are my colleagues/friends offline.
So how do I answer those questions?
And who will answer if I ask those same questions to myself?
Some answers are best unanswered! π

@ AAABBB,
OMG!! Gals see a gal in me? Gimme a break! π
Being in the US and UK, your thought process has changed quite drastically!! π π
Oh yes…you are right on the next point though…I kinda know what (and when) not to talk to gals, no special efforts there, comes naturally! π
Thanks buddy! π

such an awkward post…lol
i had never considered while reading or commenting on a blog whether the blog owner is a girl or a guy. For me blogsphere is like a gender-free area.
As for your blog, why i read your stuff and why i comment on it, the answers are really long to put here, but in short, you stuff is easy to read without bothering my mind, making me smile/laugh giving me a break in life.
As for you, why i m a friend of yours, bcoz you are a funny, freak, crazy, soft-hearted, good-humoured, optismistic, creative and reliable guy. At times i can consider you as a brother and confide in you, at other times i can take you as one of my girl friends and talk about a nail or a handbag with you π
i guess i should stop here or else my comment will be longer than your post:P
P.S.: dnt let my comment to pamper you buddy! π

hey sree actually I was not aware of your gender when I 1st stumbled across your blog in fact I remember asking you later on if you were a he or a she lolz!!!! So I guess the reason for visiting your blog must be its contect, the simple layout the humour and fun posts that you write. Often I find some blogs are too cluttered or vivid in colours and rather off putting!!

One reason I could give is because your blog is just so down-to-earth. When someone reads your blogs, they feel at ease :).
Maybe women like to read feel-at-ease blogs??? π
