Pink nails – no husband?!

I have been receiving a few comments at school on my pink nail polish and wondered why none of the female teachers had on any color. Well, I found out today that if a woman wears nail polish here it implies that she does not like to cook.  Cooking and housekeeping are very important here and are designated as women’s work.  Having a perfect manicure would suggest that you have other priorities.  


Do you know how many well-manicured women back home, know how to burn in the kitchen?  I could not help it, I laughed so hard.  Some things I can co-sign and this is not one of them. I will wear the brightest, prettiest colors against my chocolate skin with a smile.
