It all started when I went to a Sushi bar with some friends from work. I met an American woman who said the most beautiful things about India. I was happy, really happy. I even told her I will write about it in my blog and I am. She said India is like a little Europe. People are warm, food is great and she wants to live here forever. She is an environmentalist and lived everywhere in the world possible. It was a great night. Good food, great company and lots of Martini. That day I was so inspired to just write about this experience.
The very next day I was dragged to a 'club' by a friend for her birthday. We were at her house and then left for this 'fun' place. I hate clubs anyway but this was much worse. I had so space to stand. There were sweaty people touching me all the time.
At one point, we split for various reasons where two middle aged men offered to pay me for sex! They did the same in the most disgusting possible way. The whole place was just a pick up joint.
I have nothing against prostitution. In fact, I wish it were legalized so that people know who to approach and who not to. The place was filled with very sleazy people. I wanted to leave immediately but it wasn't taken seriously until my friends started getting approached too.
A woman in Delhi always needs a bodyguard. It doesn't matter whether she is good-looking or not, fat or thin, old or young, naked or covered in 4 layers of clothing. Every woman is viewed as an object by most men.
These are the kind of men who are judge women who have had pre-marital sex, even for enjoying sex, drinking, dressing up in revealing manner. These are exactly the kind of men who don't let their daughters go out and abuse their wives in bed. The men who have boring 9 to 5 jobs and a penis that's always erect. It's like they see a woman and go like, "Wow! what are those? Let's try to touch it. What else did I earn money for?"And these are exactly the kind of men who run away without paying prostitutes.
I want to tell them, "I feel bad you're horny but who will sleep with you even you pay for it."
And what should I do? Stay home locked in a room?
I am not a feminist but I do want equality wherever it is physically and mentally possible. Does any man have the balls to give women that? Or they have all lost them while trying to find woman to have sex with?
