Oh my!
MADAM PAYE LAGU, Madam …ji! You’re so NICE!
I wrote about Jigyasa Ma’am using this term before. My! Somehow calling her Ma’am like Indian do instead of Madam, even more attractive, nice. My again!
Out there in the park where I work out I keep seeing these gardeners. All female. All older, fat – even the younger ones have that lovely bulging tummy, piegon footed walk, and ….just my again!!
The oldest and fattest of these Indian sari clad Goddesses, belly and feet the only things that PROUDLY show – as they should – seems to be the boss. Ringleader.
She literally BARKS orders out to the rest. Who then scream the same way at those lower on the totem pole.
Of course, with class difference in India, not with the “upper class”. I often see the ringleader squatting on the grass respectfully as an elderly man “teaches” her things. But it’s not really teaching. He’s looking for an excuse to feel useful, and talking down to her makes his pathetic life more useful.
Noone in his class talks to him, most ignore. So he “educates” those with no choice .. to make himself feel better.
Ugh!
At least let her sit next to you. But that’s class difference in India.
I remember thinking and experiencing – the latter being more important – she’d never do that with me.
With me it’s all about sly giggles. Usually and literally I’m the one squatting at their feet like a servant,.loving every minute as they look on, wondering just what I’m doing, in a position I’m NOT supposed to be in in front of others, especially so called lower classes, especially ando more so women.
They KNOW.
Feel comfortable. Hehe.
And when a woman flirts with you, wants to, all else flies out the window. Hehe.
So it should!
Anyway.
I can just imagine the way the boss lady kicks when annoyed, that socked (red) dirty foot talking like only it can, anklet moving, semi jangling.
Chal HAT!
And that alone makes it so worth it!
Paye lagu, Madam, ji. You’re so nice!
Best
