With immense elegance, the bong beauties are all dusky, long-limbed beauties with large, kohl-lined eyes.
Well, this is such a myth. In Indian Bengali girls, we tend to exclude Darjeeling and other parts of North-Bengal, often. They mostly don’t have dark skin or large eyes. A vast majority of Bengali girls are short, and many don’t bother with kajal.
“Isshhh” is their favourite word, followed by “O Ma Go”.
Again, sorry. Sanjay LeelaBhansali’sParo might have grossly overused “Isshh,” but trust me, “Dhyattteriki” and “Balaishaar” are way more effective in reality.
That they’re the most progressive of Indian women, and hence, tigresses in bed. I’ve even heard a lot of people say that Bengali women are perpetually horny.
Well, myth again. It’s 2015, and women across the nation are making great strides in whatever domain they choose. The idea of Bengali women being ahead of others may have held decades ago (I’m still not entirely convinced they were), but it’s trash today. Also, while we’re at this, let me clarify- sapience has nothing to do with sexuality, and I’m pretty darned sure not every Bengali woman likes to be on top (pun intended).
Some of the reasons why bong beauties are not resistible:
Just like the soulful meaning of “Yin Yang,” a Bengali woman is ‘complete’ in every sense. She is arrogant yet caring; she is rude yet loving; she knows how to lure the crowd in her favour and set them back. Yes, she is proud. And that’s because she does stuff that most of us fail to understand. She is independent because she acknowledges her individuality and keeps her head high above the crowd. She is more passionate about important, meaningful things than ‘Bhai fans’ are for Salman Khan.
Consider yourself lucky if you are dating one. If you’re not, here are some reasons that will make you date a Bong girl straight away.
Eyes that could fit the entire cosmos are something that bong women are famous for. Something that will keep every man hooked to her.
Her library will make your Kindle cry in the nights.
Oh yeah, her collection of books will range from ‘KaziNazrul Islam’ to ‘Stephen King’ to ‘Walt Whitman.’It is something that will make you throw away your Kindle.
She is super-confident (not over) about everything.
Even if she isn’t confident, she won’t mind admitting to it.
Later, she will learn about it or rather master that topic.
She is synonymous with the word Independent. She will never make you feel like she desperately needs you for something.
She is assertive – she knows when to speak and when not to.
She values the ‘space’ in a relationship and knows the importance of it. So you can always have time for yourself and your friends.
She is a pool of talent.
Singing, dancing, painting, you name it, her parents have made her do it. And even in the hectic schedule, she manages to take time out for her hobbies.
Instead of ‘khanakhaya’ and ‘babuaur bolo na,’ you will have conversations that will make sense.
She is probably more charitable than what she shows and won’t ever mention it to anyone.
She knows charities are to be done anonymously; she won’t bloat about it at public gatherings! In short, she has an empathetic heart.
She is Street Smart.
She knows how to bargain with those street vendors or get away from a tricky situation on the road. Her presence of mind will amaze you.
When it comes to debating, she can own you.
She is opinionated and will stand by what she believes in. So, beware of those intense debating escapades which may turn ugly.
There won’t be a dull moment with her.
She knows every happening in the city, and even if you run out of these places, her company is always there to make up for it.
She probably has the coolest parents EVER!
She is a foodie to the core.
She won’t mind eating at a ‘thela’ because she values the taste rather than the ambience.
If she is into you, you will have the best time of your life.
But it will be a dicey situation as it is practically impossible to impress a Bong lady. Her standards are so high that your structure of dumb jokes will fall short. So buckle up, rise to her level, and you’re guaranteed to have the time of your life.
Beauty is not about looks, makeup, or clothes. True beauty comes from being yourself.
The beauty that emerges from woundedness is a beauty infused with feeling, a beauty different from the landscape’s beauty and the cold, perfect form. This is a beauty that has suffered its way through the ache of desolation until the words or music emerged to equal the hunger and desperation at its heart. It must also say that not all woundedness succeeds in finding its way through to the beauty of form. Most woundedness remains hidden, lost inside forgotten silence. Indeed, in every life, there is some wound that continues to weep secretly, even after years of attempted healing. Where woundedness can be refined into beauty, a wonderful transfiguration takes place.
Someone once told me, in all his infinite wisdom, beauty is only skin deep. I, of course, looked deeper and found where true beauty resides.
It is cruel, you know, that music should be so beautiful. It has the beauty of loneliness of pain: of strength and freedom. The beauty of disappointment and never-satisfied love. The cruel beauty of nature and the everlasting beauty of monotony.
