Though my views are anti-women most of the time, I have not ever tried to take undue advantage of them. Neither have I ever crossed my limit nor have I tried to disturb the space women enjoy. Not that I am already a saint (though I am trying to become one someday), I do stare at the erect nipples seen through the tight t-shirt women wear (the latest trend in my office place) and also I do glance at the bulging butt comfortably visible in the tight jeans women wear with a short shirt on the top. I keep my comments to my close friends and myself and see to it NONE is hurt in the process, especially the girl I am commenting on.

Eve teasing is indeed a beautiful concept, wherein a guy tries few stunts to impress the girl and gain her attention. But then the guy should know with whom he is trying his tricks on the first place. It is ok with a teenager or an unmarried woman till the age of 22 MAXIMUM. Beyond that, of course, guys can enjoy woman body in their minds but should not act childish. The scene could get really yuck and unhealthy!

It so happened that we (my brothers in-law, my wife and me) went to watch a newly released movie ‘Perazhagan’ at a multiplex called ‘Mayajaal’ this Friday, and after the movie was over at 11 pm few 5 guys teased my wife seeing her coming out of the bathroom all alone. I saw my wife walking out of the theatre upset, while we were waiting for her outside the theatre. I saw her having a verbal fight with a guy, and I approached her to ask what was wrong and she explained it to me.

I hate violence and I have never hit anyone so far in my life. I need to thank God for not providing me with such circumstances on the first place. I religiously followed what my karate teacher told me one day after my 3 years of Karate training. He said, “the best form self defense is to leave the place where you smell trouble”. But this time I could not go unperturbed.

I really don’t know where I gathered all guts from and I was already in the fighting mode. I got into the scene, started off with few abuses and dragged those guys with their shirts and made them apologize in front of my wife. If only they had refused, I am sure I would have thrashed them with my helmet ekdam Jackie Chan style. We started off on our way back to our house. It was all over for us and not for them!

ECR (East Coast Road) is a kind of deserted road especially in the nights, and that is the only road we had to take home. And as we were going 3 cars with some 20 guys blocked us midway. The scene was exactly like which happens in any movie. Now I knew logically 3 guys could never equal 20 guys physically except if it was for Bruce Lee or Jet Lee.

The only thing that has to be used here was your mental power. I got down from the bike at the same vigour, though deep inside a fear existed - my brothers in-law followed suit. I was ready for everything now. I told them in a high tone that the only option left for them is to kill us and escape. If not I will see to it is no one will live his life happily. Few guys stepped back. I asked my brothers in law to call the police and note down the car numbers, few others stepped back. I was happy my theory of crowd management was working fine. I knew I should mind my language, I should not hit anyone before they do, I should keep my cool from inside though I portray a sturdy look from outside, and I should see to it none of the guys becomes the first guy to hit me.

And we succeeded, one of them said let us go and it was all over. My aim wasn’t to hit some 20 guys and prove my strength my only aim was to make the guys, who teased my wife and make them apologize in front of her …and I did it. Am sure my wife is impressed with me after this incident though she has not said it openly as yet:D.
