Indian dad avoids washing for 35 years because......

I came across this article yesterday concerning a man from India who had not washed in 35 years in an attempt to assure that his next child would be male. He already has seven daughters.

Some humorous excerpts from the article............

1. Kailash "Kalau" Singh replaces bathing and brushing his teeth with a "fire bath" every evening when he stands on one leg beside a bonfire, smokes marijuana and says prayers to Lord Shiva. My thoughts: Yet another reason not to legalize marijuana.
2. "It's just like using water to take a bath," Kalau was reported as saying. "A fire bath helps kill germs and infection in the body." My thoughts: He better hope he does not catch on fire from the stench surrounding him.
3. He refused to take the ritual plunge into the Ganges River, even after the death of his brother. My thoughts: You must really be filthy if dipping in the Ganges River will actually help clean you up.
4. Kalau's hygiene regime has taken its toll on his professional life. The grocery store that he used to own closed when customers stopped shopping there due to his "unhealthy personality."

First of all, the man is 63 years old, so why is he looking to have more children now? I hope his wife is not the same age. Second, what woman would want to have a child with a man who has not washed in 35 years? I am not sure that this would be healthy for her. Third, i just turned 36 a couple days ago. This man has not washed since I was 1 yr. old. That is truly disgusting.
