Not just body-shaming, slut-shaming women have become an obnoxious trend on social media with people judging a woman for her choice of clothing. And taking this shaming culture to a new level, a Twitter user mocked six women at a posh restaurant for wearing “micro-minis” and accused them of being not being sanskari enough. He even went on to preach how in “Kali Yuga”, people are drifting away from traditional Indian culture and “are trying to attract others by exposing their bodies and not their qualities.” The thread quickly garnered attention for all the wrong reasons and Twitterati decided to teach him a lesson.
According to sanskari Twitter user @Mahesh10816, he scribbled his thoughts on a board at a “posh Mumbai restaurant” after seeing the women in micro-mini skirts. He not only shared what he wrote on the board but also said that the women had confronted him. He, however, claimed that they “thanked him and felt bad” at the end of the argument.
Although he deleted the tweets, there are several screenshots of his account available. Here’s what he wrote.
“And afterward, I thought about these six unsanskari women in microminis when I sat down for my after-dinner swayamseva.” pic.twitter.com/cZ3cEZUmzZ

Twitterati slammed him and called him out for his rant, and roasted him in his style by sharing their “experiences” at a posh restaurant. Sample these.
I was in a posh & expensive restaurant in Mumbai waiting for a friend. On an adjacent table, there were 6 women dressed in micro minis.
This is what happened before I decided to go to the scribbling board to get their attention at any cost…..😈😈 pic.twitter.com/mewVSmdl7i— Akash Banerjee (@akashbanerjee) July 7, 2018
I was in a prominent, posh & expensive restaurant in Mumbai waiting for a friend. On an adjacent table, there were 6 women dressed in micro minis, looking good and happy. I asked them where they’d got such cute outfits, and complimented them too before I left.

I went to a posh restaurant where there were 6 women dressed variously from saris to ‘micro minis’, eating variously from beef to paneer…overheard them talking about a mistake some of them made in 2014 and determined not to repeat it…

I was in a prominent, posh & expensive restaurant in Mumbai waiting for a friend. On an adjacent table, there were 6 women dressed in micro minis discussing block chain, data driven creativity, GDPR and programmatic buying. That’s how I saw how the business had changed.

I did not go to a posh restaurant in Delhi today because I realised the food at home is far nicer. And also, because posh restaurants these days have creepy stalkers!;) pic.twitter.com/A4JuMKUMSF

There was a scribbling board in the restaurant and some weird looking unkil was writing something with a marker. Initially we thought it was today’s special or something and wanted to try. So, my friend went to check it and oh boy was it majestic!!!

Traditional Indian men wearing dhoti-kurta used to meet their friends in Ashrams over a bowl of dahi, instead of posh restaurants wearing trousers& designer shirts, they used morpankh instead of western markers to write. Madhav, you have ruined our sanskriti 😭 https://t.co/5hSAMEslmw

By the way what about men?? True traditional indian men took bath, did pooja and wore dhoti kurta all day!! So why didnt u wear dhoti kurta to this posh expensive restaurant? Atleast you should represent true , traditional India! Nation wants to see u dressed in it

However, it seems the user hasn’t learnt his lesson, he again posted on his wall saying “the discussion was just spiritual”. He shared his version of the “argument” but Tweeple are still not buying it.
First question I asked them was who you are ? Each said their name , father’s name etc., so first I made them realise that they are not this body , but spirit soul. Later we talked about God , then the relationship between Atma & God. Then came the question of consciousness

So topics of very high quality were discussed. These ladies were first aggressive, then started to ask questions & later were willing to change. Today these ladies are waking up by 4.30 am, doing mangalaarthi, chanting, dancing for the Lord, cooking for the Lord Bliss.
