Revelations Revealed Reverently

Hellooo devoted followers of the cult of Feedo!

I havent blogged in really long but what to do..the last few weeks have been SUCH a whirlwind (hand on forehead like Scarlett O'hara). But the time has not been wasted. No indeeed. The time has been spent receiving the most fabulous revelations. I feel like one of those medieval prophets about to launch his very own religion. When you hear these revelations, you will be shocked, astounded, and rush to fall at my feet but restrain yourselves. I only take devotion in the form of large amounts of cash.

So..without further ado, here are the startling discoveries I have made about this beautiful universe we live in. This gorgeous creation of the divine being. This..this..Oh gawd I have run out of objectives.

Revelation 1.1.001

Genetic programming and you..I mean me:
This startling discovery came to me one day as I was in the kitchen trying to rustle up a meal. Nidhi was late from work, and I thought I would surprise her with a lovely meal when she came home. With excitement, I entered the kitchen, put on my apron that says "Im the chef", put on the chefs cap, put on the gloves, and clanged a couple of pans around. Then, I realised that I couldnt cook. Not that I was physically restrained from doing so...just that those areas of my brain that were supposed to provide me cooking information were mysteriously drawing a blank. Total data redundancy error in that part of the ol'noggin. The pressure cooker and microwave were looking at me like I was some sort of idiot.

Mind you, I have cooked in the past - from my first attempt at burnt daal, to chicken in wine sauce, to boiled eggs..etc etc. But somehow, each time I cook I can never remember how I did it the last time. Nidhi however can cook like a pro. She masterfully whips up dish after dish, often with one hand while reading a book or spanking me with the other.

This leads me to suspect that men have been genetically programmed
with a deficiency in cooking skills. Women have been endowed with genes that enables them to cook. Thus, balancing the equation in the battle of the sexes.


Revelation 2.2.002

Man as the hunter:
In another quirk of nature, Nidhi can never find anything that is lost whereas I can track it down in a matter of seconds. I patiently wait for her to finish turning the house upside down, cough a few times as the dust settles and then dive in and hand it to her. This shows how man is the hunter, and woman is the gatherer of the things that he just hunted. In most modern marriages, man hunts down the money, and then during the divorce the woman gathers half of it along with the house and car..thus lending further credence to this astonishing revelation.

Revelation 3.3.003

Men are not the horndogs..women are!:
The other day, we were at a nightclub with Nidhi and three of her girlfriends. Yes, lucky man me I had 4 lovely women hanging around me and I was most happy to hog all the attention I could get. But alas, this was not to be.

For who should walk in but a couple of male models. These guys were pretty decent lookin'. Nothing like me of course, but not too bad. Haha..more excitement. Immediately all the single women in the group fell silent and started checking out these guys.

Foolish man that I was, I let slip that I may know these guys. Suddenly, I was the center of attention for all the wrong reasons. They all wanted to be introduced. Quite vocal they were about it too!

When I ended up speaking briefly to these models without managing to sneak the girls into the picture, the girls got quite miffed. I got my ear chewed off for not introducing them.
I was just meaning well! After all, I didnt want these poor innocent girls to get hurt emotionally in the future. But apparently they were quite keen on it. Ultimately, I had to pay the price for being such a nice guy. God, I never knew women could be so..so..determined.

This leads me to the revelation that its not the men who are horny and desperate..as we have been told all our life..but it is in fact the women who are so! Women are just better at the sort of PR that convinces the world that its the other way around. For centuries man has laboured under the illusion that he is an oversexed neanderthal who only thinks with his second brain and cares for nothing but meaningless rompy pompy. How many times have we been told we have a one track mind. This completely changes the way things really are do you see? Men of the world rejoice...for today you are freeeeeeee!!!(VAT and duties extra).

I don't know, Feedo. I hate to be a heretic and all, but my husband and I are the opposite of you and Nidhi on the first two revelations. My husband likes to cook and has gotten really good at it (a duty which I gladly relinquished to him when he first expressed an interest after the birth of our first child, LOL!) and when it comes to finding stuff, sometimes I think he couldn't find his hand in front of his face. By now I know that if he tells me he has already looked for something in a certain place, that's where I look first since he most likely just missed it there, LOL!

But you might be right on revelation number three. Can I still join the religion? ;-)

Nice to hear of some role reversals. I think its prolly just me who cant cook. Actually, i can cook given a cookbook..that much I must admit. And I enjoy it too.

You can definitely join the religion..theres no need to ask. Stay tuned for some more revelations..especially the one coming about a new, inexhaustible source of energy which will solve all of the worlds problems.

Yes, I actually bought the story never realising that this was all part of the game plan of women to make us men feel inferior and needy. Bah. Do I sound bitter now? No! Really?
