One New Delhi dad, tired of his spouse giving birth to a succession of girls- 7 in all- decided to hold back on something very important, in response.
What, you are wondering, did he hold out on?
The answer: Bathing.
What makes this even more bizarre is that the anxious pops stopped bathing, in the traditional sense, for 35 years. He claims that he uses fire to cleanse himself and that it is just as good as water, but I am pretty sure that there are a WHOLE lotta people around who may disagree.
His professional life has not been helped too much by his refusal to bathe, as he lost his business, due to customers not being too enthusiastic about his rank smell. Some family members are also not happy with his weird decision.
Still, the guy stubbornly insists upon continuing in his odiferous ways, because, some say, he was told that not taking a bath would ensure him the son he has always desired.
Here's the thing, though.
What woman is going to want to come anywhere close enough to him to conceive this son he desires so much when he outreeks a skunk?
Oh, and one more thing.
He also hasn't brushed his teeth in 35 years either.
