I don't want to be a Feminist.
55 WORDS FICTION
I don’t care about being equal to men …me wants to live my life peacefully… doing my own thing.
You're working?
Love my job.
Have kids?
Planned later.
Can you make chappaties?
We’ve always had a maid for that!
What will you do if your husband was violent?
You think I’d marry someone that kind?!!!
A literary work will be considered 55 Fiction if it has:
Fifty-five words or less (A non-negotiable rule)
A setting, One or more characters, Some conflict, and A resolution.
(Not limited to moral of the story)

You're hooked to this, aren't you? :) But considering that you're pretty good at it, why wouldn't you want to do an encore?

I like this but the first one was the best!
@OG Thanks :) I am like that anything new OG, from new washing machines and new cameras, to new places to eat...

@D Hey no, I don't think I am good at it ... it's just a new interest and I recently met about someone who who has absolutely mixed notions of feminism. Had to rant.
@Smita This is not me!! I am being sarcastic, I would love to ask her this question.

You don't know how to make Chappatis?Lol.I also struggle with it, its really difficult, I cook rice generally because its easy to cook. But I prefer to eat Rotis/chappatis.:-)!
My answers would be
You're working?
Love my job.Not the people working there.
Have kids?
Planned later.Probably after marriage.;-)
Can you make chappaties?
Can, but Won't.
What will you do if your husband was violent?
You think I’d marry a Guy?;-)
Chirag Somebody actually said she wanted all this (or took it for granted) but didn't care for feminism-sheminism. Can' wait to read your 55ers :)
Chikki - ROTFL :))) This was a good one!!
I was wondering how you were planning to answer the last one :))
Now pick the tag, give this a try, it will be great fun to see what you do with just 55 words - seeing how long your average posts are :)

Work builds character. Educated Indians love to imitate western lifestyle but not their work ethics. Getting maids to do the work and spending hours addicted to the internet is a sure recipe for a depressed life.
Jay
No doubt work builds character.
No doubt both educated (and uneducated also) Indians, women and men, love to imitate western lifestyles, so much that now that, for some, this has become our own life style.
Getting maids to do the work can lead to depression? How? I think it gives the homemaker (generally a woman) extra time to go to the gym or to spend with family and friends. Or to shop, or to listen to music or to buy and try lipsticks and to discuss politics with friends and enemies. To laugh with her kids. To take pictures... how would it be depressing? Whoever you are you have no idea what a blessing domestic helpers are.
If you are unmarried you better tell your future wife you think "Getting maids to do the work ....is a sure recipe for a depressed life."
Or being addicted to the internet can lead to a depressed life?
This I have to admit, all addictions can be maybe not depressing but definitely unhealthy - internet addiction might cause back problem, carpal tunnel syndrome etc but why would it be a recipe for a depressed life.
Arrey mine was hypothetical question ;-)
@Smita LOL (sheepish grin)
Good one :-)
IHM, thanks for linking me...was wondering where the extra traffic was coming from and then realized its all your doing...thanks :)
i liked the green eyed monster one best!! u really have taken to this!
Hey! Me got so inspired, that I did one too. Check it out... :)
IHM, That was great! So were all the ones before! Waiting for more! Can't believe it that you have done so many already! Wow!
nice IHM! u have a talent for 55!!
btw in bombay from 13th to 17th april..wanna meet?
