"Frandship" requests - finally an explanation!

As a collective people, either we Indians are way ahead in the relationship curve or completely messed up! The top 5 "how to" queries via Google's India Zeitgeist are either highly insightful or very, very worrying!
  • People want to impress girls first, then they think about improving their English. Wanting to make frandship with you, anyone?
  • So people want to know how to get pregnant before they kiss. That explains the 1.3% population growth rate, twice that of China and higher than the world average.
  • More people want to learn how to kiss before they impress the girl. An explanation for the rising crime rate against women?
  • And reducing weight is at the very end of the relationship priority. Explains the omnipresence of pot-bellies around the nation.
There are more gems hidden there. What can you spot?

  1. What this also signifies, in the 'how to' context alone, is that the bulk of female-centric 'get pregnant' searches outweighs majorly male-centric searches number 2 and 3 (4 and 5 can tend towards both populations).

    Does that give you a hint of something you would not, generally, expect?

  2. @Anonymous: Brilliant observation. The fact that the top "how to" query caters to females which make up only 15-20% of the overall online audience is really surprising!
