Shops' interior architecture and housewives' brains

A Stomp photgraph showed a boutique with a shiny floor. That can cause the unintended outraged modesty of female patrons who wear skirts. The floor surface can reflect their undergarments as they walk. This will cause the business of the shop to be adversely affected, since the female customers will be afraid of venturing into it.

To have swanky architecture and give a trendy impression is one thing but to cross the boundary of indecent exposure is another. Unconscious knowledge will not be a valid reason when the prospect of legal confrontation awaits. It's best to practise caution when setting up a shop to prevent such sensitive issues from arising.

Tabitha Wang wrote on her perspective as a working housewife and I don't blame her for feeling indignantly infuriated towards the perceptions people have of her capability. Some housewives are graduates too, all you male chauvinists out there! People's brains don't just regress with a different way of using them! Do you think it is that easy being in charge of domestic affairs without a maid to assist you?? In fact, housewives have more time and energy to peruse the newspapers thoroughly and catch up on general knowledge via enriching television programmes, than those who hold jobs outside.

I salute Tabitha Wang's way of dealing with her client and it actually put him to shame, knowing that he had underestimated her abilities. Way to go, Tabitha!
