(strictly) a woman's thing Explanation: This is talking about gender roles and stereotypes. The woman's place is in the kitchen, so they say ;-) Something along the lines of: Everyday cooking will only really appeal to men when it's no longer seen/portrayed as strictly a woman's thing. http://www.nairaland.com/952752/marrying-woman-cant-cook Cooking isnt so much of a woman's thing anymore.A lot of men cook good these days -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 mins (2012-07-21 10:00:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/gender-debate Food preparation in the home kitchen has usually been considered a woman’s job or a woman’s [pseudo]”duty”. It’s the dutiful and domesticated housewife who has snacks baked and prepared and then prepares dinner when the hard working husband comes home from work. Then there’s baking. In truthfulness, there’s that stereotype/gender role that baking is a woman’s thing. You know what I’m talking about: women baking is the norm but when men bake, it’s not the norm |
