"Women's tea tables and parlors suggested not only a feminized fetishism of the commodity, it was a feminization intimately connected to ideologies of leisure. The parlor and the tea table are positioned in stillness and plenitude. The women are ever present in this tranquil picture because they are not compelled to leave their interiors. They do not need to enter the public hurly-burly, the work of the exterior (outside the frame) is irrelevant. Their actions of leisure—holding a cup, playing cards, writing—signal the privilege of not-having-to-labor and the class power that builds upon that idealized, and patriarchal, vision of women's nonwork" (Source: Piya Chatterjee. Time for Tea: Women, Labor and Post/Colonial Politics in an Indian Plantation. 2001).
