Purkaystha

It is one of the longest surnames you will see and hear and however you say it will be wrong, unless it is your surname.
It is also a very nice surname btw. No tea no shade ☕

Is Mrs Punkayasthaka here?

It is actually Purkaystha.
Yeah that is what I said.
No, you said P-U-N-K-A-Y-A-S-T-H-A-K-A; while it is P-U-R-K-A-Y-S-T-H-A.
I still do not get it...
Forget it!

glass purdah

It's a continuation on the glass ceiling/glass closet idea. In eastern westernised societies men and women do come to a party together but segregate themselves in different corners upon arrival. You can see eachother but you can't cross over to meet: The glass purdah rules.

She: Bye now for a while, I've to go to my own side.
He: Look but don't cross, the glass purdah rules!
She: Looking is better than touching and thank god they don't put down a black purdah any more.
