What Do Indian Men Do All Day?

Okay, here's a big question that's been on my mind since the start of my trip: What do Indian men do all day? Supposedly they go to work. Which is, of course, why I'm always seeing them relaxing and chatting and really doing much of nothing during the day. And this isn't even in the early afternoon, when many businesses close due to the heat. This is all day long. Women work their asses off. Men laugh and drink chai. And I'm not the only one to notice this. A few of my Western friends have asked me about this, thinking that, as someone with a connection to India, I may be able to shed light on this issue. Nope. I'm baffled.
