Translation:

Domestic Restrictions

 

Your concerns should be about your husband, children and household affairs – why do you need a job?

 

(at the left)

Even at this age I cannot rest.

Sister-in-law, this is not your parents’ home.

 

(on the right)

We have enough money; a woman from a good family does not work.

 

With your earnings you will become independent and wayward. A job means that you will be meeting and talking with other men.

 

If you break these restrictions, do not expect to obtain the happiness, peace and security of a housewife.

Translation:

Obstacle Race                      How many obstacles?

 

1) Why do you need to study?

2) You completed S.S.C, now learn how to cook.

That is what you will do even after studying.

3) You completed graduation. If you study further how

will we find you a boy?

4) Does marriage mean domestic bliss or the sacrifice of one’s hopes and dreams?

5) A woman’s duty lies in looking after her home, husband and children. Why does she need to get a job?
