Modern men

My modern Indian man - 

A hugging man - 

1. A man who is first the biggest friend to his child. Not a figure of authority.  A man who hugs his son! I write this in bold because I know very few men who hug their sons or fathers. Sad truth. 

2.  A father who plaits his daughter's hair - 
2. A man who embraces his metro sexuality openly. A man who knows that taking  care of his hair and skin isn't beneath him. 

3. A man who isn't threatened by a woman's intelligence or beauty. But rather revels in it! 

4. A man who takes equal pleasure and responsibility in taking care of the chores at home as well as the baby. 

5. A man who is open.  A man who isn't ashamed of his passions. A man who strives to learn something new without any prejudices. 

6. A man who takes every effort to demonstrate his love. Someone who doesn't think that expressing will make him weak. 

7. A man who is rational and independent thinker. A man who is questioning. A man with a scientific temper. 

8. A man who asks for help when in need.

So you see my modern Indian man isn't very different from my idea of a modern Indian woman. Except the metro-sexuality and hugging. Women are a little more generous with hugging their mothers! ;)
