Sara adjusting a carburettor “My father said girls shouldn’t,” the boy said.
Sara eyed him. “Shouldn’t what?”
He squinted at her, the sun in his eyes. “Do men’s work.”
Sara sighed, cleaned her hands on a rag. “And why shouldn’t they?” It was not her job to set him straight, but what the hell, he seemed a smart.
He shrugged. “Said it’s not—tredditional. Wasn’t like that in the past.”
She smirked “Does your dad hunt mammoths? Because that’s what men did in the past.”
“He’s in insurances.”
“Then tell him to shut his trap. Or get himself a mammoth.” NOTE: this Imaginary Girl is dedicated to the 48% Italian males that think women should not have a job.

Imaginary Girls: Lucy shows her true colors
One day it finally became impossible to go on. The charades, the innuendo, the social chess-playing, the holding up of appearances. Good girls go to heaven, bad girls go everywhere. The nasty ones had more fun, but must not show it. Be nasty, but look graceful. He wants to have the illusion that he is the one bringing out your bad side, like he was some kind of Libertine, while he’s just a poor boy that learned about women from comic books. One day Lucy gave up. She decided to tell them she had always been the evil one.
