Writing [India partner] is a double kill for me, a single straight man.
First, there is no object, and I have never experienced a situation similar to the movie where my wife (girlfriend) needs an aunt's towel.
Second, it is not a woman (nonsense!), I don't know the market of aunt towel, although I have heard about daily use, night use, ultra-thin, etc., but I always need to know a little about it when I write it.
Lakshmi, the male protagonist of [Indian Partner], doesn't understand like me, but what he faces is not a chatter, but a must do.
After all, there are still many girls, women and aunts in India who have never used aunt towel, and here are his wives, old sisters, and mothers.

Making Aunt Towels for Love
As I wrote [Indian Partner] at this specific time, the male protagonist Lakshmi also found out that his wife had come to "relatives" after an Indian rope festival, but because of the traditional wife must stay in the outhouse, even if he personally Don't ask to go home.
However, if only the "big aunt" no longer sees each other during the period, this "small pain" will be tolerated.
When Lakshmi found out that his wife only used this thing to "love" him, the old man was a little bit broken (otherwise not!).
Of course, at this time, as straight men, we naturally have to be simple and clear. Since there is no "aunt towel", just buy one.
It's just..."Aunt's towel" is a little expensive. Brother Lakshmi's own "private money" is not enough, so he borrowed a little more from his friends to raise enough (it is estimated that the money for cigarettes will be gone in two weeks).
I thought my wife would be happy for the "aunt's towel" that I spent a lot of money on after skipping work, but in the end...she was shy and violent.
It must have been a great responsibility for the people. My brother took his aunt towel to the factory (sorry, the pharmacy does not accept returns). Coincidentally, the worker was injured. In order to avoid infection, Lakshmi saved the worker by using the aunt towel. arm.
But I also learned from the doctor about the facts about the menstrual period of women in underdeveloped areas in India (ironically, the "blood" of my aunt's towel was not his wife but his co-worker).
In this case, the average man gritted his teeth and bought it, but this old man directly DIYed it himself.
Don't think he's doing it wrong, after all, he has also built an onion slicer and modified bicycle seats.
However, it is estimated that there are too few types of aunt towels in India, or the advertisements are not in place. This simple operation of my brother obviously cannot achieve the effect of anti-leakage (thanks to TV stations and advertisers).
No, the first test of the water ended in a "leak" failure.
At the same time, the conflict between the husband and wife also expanded again this time.
The old brother also refused to admit defeat, and even brought out the wise saying of their factory director: " It is perfect to solve problems really, not just because you think you can! "
But this time, Lakshmi is not facing the small problem of leakage. This time he has to fight against the whole village and the old customs of the society, and this also includes his family and friends.
The man won't say more, the better one doesn't hate Lakshmi, like a friend who borrows money, he only asks, what did the brother buy? What's the cure? He will even help him, so that he will not be embarrassed in front of everyone.
The ignorant, like his co-workers, will say that the aunt's towel is filth (the brain is a good thing).
What about the women? Will they not support this behavior that is closely related to their life, health and future?
It really is.
The ignorant rural women think that Brother Lakshmi is a lunatic and a lunatic.
And civilized female students like medical school think that DIY aunt towel is a "three-no product", there is no guarantee of hygiene, and the product has no positioning.
But what really hurt Lakshmi was his wife and family by his side.
And my mother also didn't understand what Lakshmi was doing. I want to use it for my sister, I feel ashamed and think he is crazy.
Because she gave her aunt towel to the newly grown girl at home (is there anything wrong? Do you want [Witch Carrie] to come again?), she was regarded as a hooligan by the parents...
The family did not support it, and the cooperation with the female medical student was talked about, so I could only demonstrate in person, but this time, it became the laughing stock of the whole village.
Brother Lakshmi just made himself the most "stupid" man in the village, people who betrayed their relatives... Although he was not wrong, although he was just a little anxious, and his method was a little more straight.
But for love, who wouldn't do it? Especially when the family around him is so unsanitary, ignorant and ignorant, the responsibility of a man should be more reflected, what is the pillar of the family, that's all.
However, even though I was so commercialized, Lakshmi was criticized and scolded by the villagers, and finally had to leave her hometown.

Look at the country
Do aunt towel to liberate women
Traveling far away and living in debt, Brother Lakshmi has gone on the road of making aunt towels.
If there is a problem with the material, look for the material. If there is a problem with the processing, it depends on the processing. Anyway, in the eyes of straight men, all that can be handled are small cases (the greatest face of a man is gone, and there is nothing to be afraid of, right).
At this time, Lakshmi, in my eyes, is more like a North, Shanghai, Guangzhou drifter with a clear purpose: I would rather wander outside, and I also want to get what I think of (thinking of my classmates who play games, ahem).
If you don’t have knowledge or culture, you will be a nanny for a university professor’s child, and if you don’t have a supply, you will need a copy.
But the success of this moment is not called success, and it is not promoted. Even if there are machines that can reduce costs, it is still impossible for thousands of Indian women to use aunt towel.
Brother Lakshmi is still missing a partner, a Bole, who is the second female Parry.
The meeting between the two was also very dramatic. Aunt Parry suddenly arrived, but none of the friends around her brought an aunt towel. Himi... (The Mystery of the Movie, Hmm)
This incident also proved the importance of Lakshmi making aunt towels. Parry represents the rich class. Women around her generally know and use aunt towels, while poor people still use rags. Even ashamed of using the aunt's towel.
The attitudes of Parry and his wife also represent the consciousness of two classes: Parry is curious about everything that Brother Lakshmi does, and even asks him to improve, while the wife just heard that his husband is still making aunt towels, Run away in shame and fear...
At this time, if you want to be recognized, you can only take the road of "traffic star". With the help of Parry, my brother also won the invention competition with the cheap aunt towel maker, and became a hero in the newspaper.
But the operation below the old brother is more stable. He didn't use this patent to make money. Instead, he distributed the machine and the pads (a feeling of home appliances going to the countryside) to save millions of women.
He partnered with Parry, one to sell and one to do. They even teach errant women not to rely on men, but to make their own pads to earn money to support their families.
These achievements eventually led Lakshmi and Perry to the stage of the United Nations.

From "Padman"
see pure man
In fact, looking at [Indian Partner] as a whole, there will be problems of mediocrity and procrastination (it seems that Indian movies like to break through the physical limits of people). But the victory lies in its spirit, its core, which is particularly high-firing.
Although this kind of plot is cliché, it touches the heart.
As a straight man, I am shocked by the spirit of Brother Lakshmi. A man can do this regardless of whether he can do it. It is truly awesome.
It's a man who should do this, in order to protect his beloved, bravely confront the world. Yu Gong, do not forget the original intention, do your duty well.
You can even treat it as a textbook for straight men, how to treat your lover (there are positive and negative examples); how to rise in adversity, how not to be carried away by money, fame, how to sit still...
And summed up in one word is actually "love", only love can contain everything.
Well, I feel like I'm mentally enough, but why am I still single?
