“...act like a lady..."

Sometimes, in what could be translated as wanting to be more "ladylike", young Indonesian women who mostly did not wear hijab scarves as high school students, start wearing one when they arrive at university.

Others, in pursuit of a different perspective/version of what it is to be "ladylike", on arrival at university - at the outset of a more independent stage in their lives - stop wearing their hijab scarves having done so in their high school years.

A common phrase...I’ve heard it all my life. Even when I’m told I’m free not to, it confuses me...

What the h*ll does it mean?

I don’t have a good definition, but I would propose a model, of how a lady acts: Barbara Bush.

Of course. I see no problem with men saying how they would like to see women behave and carry about themselves. Apparently women get offended, while they do it all the time to men.

LOL...torunn I've heard the same thing said the other way around!

I guess it is one side thinks one way and the other another.

What is that book men are from Mars and women are from Venus!

Yep, some of these are harmless puns and jokes, but some people take offense, and have all kinds of anxiety attacks over what people say.

You're joking about the anxiety attacks right? If not they are in the wrong place.

I hope so, because they would be in the wrong place for sure! 😉

I don't wonder why you want to call out these posters over what you no doubt see as "unprincipled" behavior. You don't get along with either of those two people, and so you wish to "shame" people into supporting you over them.

Well, yeah, good luck with that.
