an indian man from udupi was dragged to court in australia on charges of stalking two women in a surprise twist the court let him go after it took notice of his cultural background it was found that due to bollywood influences the man thought that stalking was a normal way to court a woman and that desi movies led him to believe that if he pursued them enough the women would eventually fall in love with him we list some other behaviours that are typical to indian men that we have all unfortunately accepted but are actually not okeve teasing almost every indian girl has been a victim of some form of eve teasing from whistling passing comments and accidental brushing in public transport the indian man seems to thinks that its ok to treat women as commoditiesspitting and urinating in public there is no excuse to spit or urinate on the road the world is not your toilet the government has set up enough public toilets where one can relieve oneselfslapping girlfriendwifesister many movies still show the hero slapping his girlfriend wifesister for any mistake that she might have committed this reinforces negative stereotypes and makes men think that it is fine to physically assault women let us tell you that it is notgazing at women yes women are beautiful creatures but that doesnt mean that you can shamelessly stare at them the desi male makes nothing of glaring at every woman who passes by him at times not even sparing his friends wifegirlfriendsisterscratching privates in public theres a reason why they are called private parts whatever you do with them you are meant to do within the privacy of four walls men the next time you feel an itch down there find a room or loo instead of just going at it in full public viewalways expecting multitasking most indian men want superwomen for wives they want her to work cook clean take care of the kids and attend family functions multitasking is not just a womans forte and they always appreciate helpassuming no means yes no no means no if a girl meant yes she would say yestaking pictures it is vital to ask a persons permission before taking pictures of them their children or their pets it is not ok to take pictures of that cute little kid or the pretty girl without the persons consentinfringing on space when walking down a road or into the elevator it is almost always the woman who has to maneuver her way around to avoid getting bumped into it seems to be quite an inconvenience for men to take half a step aside and make way for another person
