“Button, have you ever wondered why some men have hair growing out of their ears?”
“I have seen elderly men with hairy ears. That will also apply to me as I grow older. What a gross thought.”
“There is one man who comes to mind when I think of hairy ears: Kaloo, our friendly neighbour. You can actually tie up his ear hair into small ponytails or make plaits! Can’t understand why Babri, his wife, can’t trim the hair growing out of her husband’s ears!”
“Does the hair turn grey as the man ages?”
“It does. I had an uncle back in Kolkata who had tufts of grey hair coming out of his ears. And every time we tickled his ears, he thought it was a tic or a mosquito that had lost its way in the hairy jungle and slap his ears really hard but still refused to trim the hair . Thank god women don’t have that problem!”
