On Dec 15, 2013, Goanet Reader posted the following from VM: " Just this week, an endlessly shameless gossip columnist titled a typical throw-away column, 'We know what you did in Goa', that claimed, "Throw in feni, the sun, the sea, and boom! Men's libidos explode."
COMMENT: 1: Finally, a word or two from the Vindhya Mountain. 2: Even if I was involved in construction, I would not build a beam to support the Vindhya Mountain. 3: I wonder if common colds gather Xacuti masala and spontaneously convert into 'flashing' bronchopneumonias. 3: I am not surprised that Indian politicians and patracars find it so facile to beat up on Goan men i.e. those 'good for nothing' 'cooks and butlers' and 'losers' who normally 'drink feni with their sorpatel lunch' and 'break out into spontaneous song and dance before going to their siesta'? 4: I am now convincing myself that the Sri Ram Sena and the Bajrang Dal were actually right in trying to warn the young ladies of Mangalore (2009) NOT to frequent pubs? After all, Pubs are places which might be frequented by Mangalorean (Goan) Men whose " libidos explode " after a drink or two, No? 5: My personal advice to those who might be at a party where alcohol is being served: DO NOT TOUCH the stuff. IF you must drink, please drink way below your known limits. Please remember that colourful statements and responses to colourful conversations initiated by others, may be easily be misconstrued and used against you. Folks are not necessarily as liberated and open minded as you might be led to believe. 6: Once the dominos start tumbling, you may have little or no control - with or without G-chat records of racy Bilateral conversations between two ostensible adults.. 7: Even so, I normally advise my friends .... "Patience!" "Needless Confrontation may result in multi-lateral Destruction". "Do not go near Pandora and that Box unless you really have to". "Think about the innocent / unaware bystanders who might be part of the collateral damage." ps: Like Child Abuse, Sexual Harassment is a serious matter. Pity that "we" weaken the fight against these crimes by way of masalafication. jc I have not read any 'columns' about the Potency Test. Have you? http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2013-December/236600.html
