Met a nosy co passenger :/

I (29F) was travelling to CBE in train from Chennai. A mid aged lady was seated next to me. I was minding my own business, reading a book. She introduced herself and so did I. Gradually she was asking about my whereabouts. Although I didn’t share much, i just a gave short replies.

And then she was talking about her daughter. She asked if I was married to which I answered in one word - No. I didn’t want her to ask or talk more on that topic so I replied in one word.

And then she started asking about my job and if it was wfh or wfo. I replied that I like going to office, so i prefer going to office. Her next question irked me..she replied that “kalyanam aana indha madiri daily office poga mudiyathu..baby lam pathukanum” (if you are married this won’t work, you should take care of baby and all)..

I was completely annoyed by now. Is this how society sees working women/mothers? Why can’t both equally tale care of the family and baby? Is it always women’s duty to do houseworks?

Would she have questioned the same way if it was a guy?! I didn’t reply to her. I stopped the conversation then.
