The Honey-Trappers of Chennai, India
Presently, both the parents of the prospective groom and bride enter into a spying game on them to verify their off-beat habits and crazes. This is carried out with the help of private detectives. Several marriages have been called off when the real picture of the candidate comes to light.
In another case, on the very nuptial night, the husband wanted to have unnatural sex with his brand new wife because he happened to be a homo-sexual. The wife walked out on him in no time.
Gone are the days when elders viewed a girl as a home loving bird, obedient, modest and husband-worshipping young maiden. The IT syndrome has thrown it all overboard. The pattern of life of these young women with fat pay packets too has undergone a sea change. Daughters used to be under parental control until marriage. Not anymore. They want to live in hostels or in rented apartment in the same city all by themselves because they could afford the cost and want to enjoy a life of total freedom which is invariably restricted in the parents’ home. With the prospects of a devil-may-care life dancing before their eyes, girls take to habits like drinking and smoking (a taboo for an Indian girl even now !) go for late night wild parties and date as many men as they could to show off their social graph.
The beneficiaries of such a scenario are the private detective agencies.. They are in great demand nowadays in cities like mine. They would spy on the bride-to-be or groom to-be for a sum.
So, next time if a beautiful blonde hovers around you, an eligible bachelor, and tries to flirt with you, beware. She may be a honey-trapper hired by the girls parents trying to test your potency and sex orientation and of course your gallivanting mind set. The great woman-detective will also test your competence to arouse the future wife from low to high level.. We don’t know what her strategy would be in this regard. Perhaps she might apply the reverse formula and see if he gets primed up by her seductive looks and touch
Testing the groom’s character and routine is an easy matter. All a honey-trapper has to do is to follow the hero for a week and note down all the tricks practised by him including his late night errands to 5-star hotels, smoking, drinking, drug swallowing etc.
So, now you understand the meaning of honey-trappers, don’t you.? Hopefully !
