As a student of the sciences and mathematics till high school, I had been introduced to ratios and proportions in middle school and through physics and chemistry learnt the concept of inverse proportions as well. Many laws of science state the value of a certain variable “x” which is proportional to another variable “y”, (x ? y) and vice-versa for inversely proportional variables. What indeed do laws of mathematics have to do with girls? There is indeed a relation, which is the universal law that all guys and men know of. The law states “The amount of money in your pocket is inversely proportional to the girlfriend or number of girlfriends you have.” In some cases this extends to include the number of girls known in general.

This is indeed the era of liberation of women. They wanted to be considered as equals and worked very hard and fought their way through layers of male chauvinism and archaic male oriented laws to make their point. Even previously male dominated societies woke up and took notice of the fact that women are not mere observers, they an active part of society. Some consider women will leave their male counterparts behind, which might end up being true. So the law might seem very sexist and chauvinistic to all the girls and women, another pathetic attempt by men to degrade women and make them seem dependent on their male counterparts. To a certain extent that train of thought might even be correct as we men try and play catch up to women and this maybe another desperate attempt at expressing the pseudo male superiority.

Slow down for a minute, think without prejudice and with a cool accepting mind (some attributes inherent to women and alien to many men). How many women would want to have separate checks on the first date? Again this might spark a debate as this might seem a very sexist remark, many women do think of that as an option and will prefer separate checks. Continue Reading
