    Just about all prejudice is just manufactured cultural pressure. There’s no base in reality or rationality, it’s just “people told me this often enough that now I believe it.” It easily shifts from culture to culture because different people said different baseless things that became “common knowledge” in that region.

      the idea of gendered jobs is just some old ass shit. You wanna cook clean and be the one who get drunk at the bar and starts fights, do it, I mean not around me because you sound like a mess, but you dont need tits or a dick to preform most things in life.

      or it’s just something you have encountered your entire life.

      other than professional cooking classes I’ve taken for my own interest, I’ve never known a guy who cooks other than grilling outside. Women like it when I grill outside for them too.

      But if I cook inside? It’s all very bizarre and suspicious and uncomfortable. It’s not ‘natural’.

        We’re saying the same thing. People say the kitchen is for women, so people think it’s weird for a man to be in the kitchen, so men stay out of the kitchen. Doesn’t make it any more logical, it’s just an old tradition based on bad takes from people long dead.
