Abaya, you will not ever get it, just like men don't get .... well... a lot of stuff.
There are things like toilet cleanliness that we get over time. There are things like telephone conversations that we grudgingly get eventually.
But eyelash crimpers, preferred sanitary napkins, cleaning when things are not noticeably dirty, and bangles we do not get.
We get The Bangles, but not bangles.
It's just a thing.
