- Una de las muestras de tolerancia que, recientemente, ha dado mi madre es que no nos critica cuando nos ve salir a la calle en yinas. Un par de décadas atrás, recuerdo, cuando mi hermana y yo éramos hijas de dominio, fruncía el ceño en señal de desaprobación al vernos cruzar el umbral de la casa enyinadas. Nos decía que ese calzado era propio de empleadas domésticas y que nos pusiéramos zapatos decentes.
- A recent example of tolerance that my mother has shown is that she does not criticize us when she sees us go out wearing flip-flops. Two decades ago, I remember that when my sister and I were under their care, she would frown in disapproval seeing us cross our house's door wearing flip-flops. She'd say that that footwear was appropriate for nannies, and that we should wear decent shoes instead.
