s simple," he said. "When she says I am 30, I add five years, and when she says I am 40 I add seven years. But in all cases I never hesitate to wrap up the conversation with- "Aap apni umar se bahut choti lagti hai"According to latest findings made by Dr Nancy Jasper, an assistant professor of gynaeocology at Columbia university, many women lie to their doctors. A whopping 52 per cent say they give in to the temptation of what they feel is a harmless ‘little white lie’. My research also tells me that it is not only women but men who also lie, not in front of their doctors but their wives. When any husband gets up in the morning with a hangover, and the wife asks how many pegs he had the previous night, he normally dismisses it with, "Not much. I just had two light ones." As for the throbbing headache he has because of the excessive drinking, he’d probably put the blame on the food, the weather, or even the wife. Lying can lead to a wrong prescription which can be very detrimental. But is guiding your wife is normally helpful in evading an argument. I think doctors should either hypnotise women patients or give them anti-lying tablets before trying to know their symptoms. Once I saw a long queue of women outside a doctor’s clinic. I asked one of the patients, "Is this doctor so very competent?" She replied, "Well I don’t know how well qualified he is for the job, but he has a huge notice outside his clinic which says ‘We don’t ask ladies their age here’."
