I am amazed at the rate at which many of my friends swear and curse so very flippantly, fully well knowing what the words mean. In an attempt to refrain from using distasteful language on this blog, I shall use "X" in place of Maa( Mom/mother in many Indian languages), and Y in place of behen(sister).
Maa/Behen gaalis are a way of life for many people in India, so much so that when someone gives you such gaalis, there's a good chance that he is a good chum. These gaalis with all their might convey affection in most cases, and not disgust.
Fine, but upto apoint...beyiond which, well...read on
For e.g
....arey, X chu*&^ padi hai,
Fitness ki XY ho padi hai
Arrey, prof ne aaj X C#$^h di be
Seems like people have no dearth of moms. I was taught that all Indians are my brothers and sisters, but these fellas seem to have taken this teaching a step further.
Whatever....

Was accidental dude...removed now
I feel maa/behen gaalis are Disgusting, friendly way or not. Even top sports stars like Harbhajan singh, Shahid Afridi, Gautham Gambhir aren't saints as far as maa/behan gaali's are concerned. Remember Harbhajan-symonds, shahid-gautham sledging while t20 world cup and aus tour?
It was a big issue when Harbhajan used the word "monkey", and for ICC, it is very much acceptable to use maa/behen gaalis. I thought that it was even more offensive than "monkey".
How come 'U' wrote this blog....from when did u turn a saint ???
Well all i can say, make sense when u want to otherwise leave them, coz most of the time they are used just to fill up a conversation!
i like the way you started in the third person.. like you never do it :-)
