I actually do not believe that either.
Remember we are partners and helpmate.
Someone like me who grew up in an only boy's house, we don't wait for my mum too cook for us. Even now that I'm not with them, I find house chores simple to do, and I'm sure it will be that way even ..
I'm sure it will be that way even when I'm married. There are times I will do the cooking, Washing, or laundry. So, women have their lives too, they shouldn't be all stuck up in the kitchen.
And doing these things doesn't make you less of a man, rather, it makes you more responsible and aware of how hard your wife is also working to ensure the family is good.
One thing I know about people's behaviour is that - it's a reflection of how they were raised from childhood and also a reflection of the good habits they see others perform and the trauma they witnessed while growing up.
Some people grow with the mindset of - Daddy stays in the parlour after work and watch NEWS, while mummy and their sisters would be in the kitchen cooking food. This is the reality for some persons while they were growing up
So, when these type of person grow up of age, they tend to want to do what their father did. They would also want to be in the parlour watching NEWS or doing whatever, while their wife be in the kitchen with their daughter (if any) cooking dinner.
Though I don't believe in gender equality, I also don't believe that the only place for a woman is the kitchen. I am not equal to my wife, as I'm stronger, and will stand up to defend her in every situation.
However, even though I see myself as I equal to my wife, that doesn't mean her sole place is the kitchen. We are partners, unequal partners. When she's in the kitchen, it's only sensible for me to help out. Wash plates when need be,
I like this.
Or even tend to the kids... She can't be cooking and also attending to the kids too... Nah
Smiles....
So true. The world is changing though. And I'm sure guy's are knowing better than to always sit down to watch news now 😁
That's true.
And it will definitely show when they later stay alone or get married
