  3. Have you heard the song"If you are going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair..."
    so perhaps it's all ladies. But yes more so amongst Tamil and all south Indian ladies. I love the smell of jasmine in my hair.

  5. Shantanu, I will choose to take that as a compliment....that my writing does not have gender bias.

    True! In fact some writings do convey the gender of the person... if the reader is experienced enough.. yours did not.. true!

  9. Net may provide all required info..But still, according to me, expressing, one's view, thought, opinion makes a comparative difference from the info available on net..so I feel, U need to share everything, what all u come across or what all u feel or what all General Knowledge u ve:) It gives immense pleasure to ur own self..Have a Good Day:) Bye:) Tata:)
