there's a term i can't recall for this. it's like "invisible labor" because it's so much more than what's even mentioned. cooking is hard enough for one person, let alone a family with varied diets, nutritional needs, preferences, and schedules that a mom has to consider before even buying the food (which she likely does every time). that alone is something you could get paid a good salary to do for a family, yet it's just expected of mothers. bonkers

I notice that traditionally men are often expected to do the things that are more fun versions of what women are expected to do, like grilling or mowing the lawn.

Truly everything that women do is downplayed and made to seem inconsequential

Yeah, like a man grilling for a barbecue while his wife gets the house ready for the guests, prepares all the sides, takes care of the kids, tends to the guests, gets all the plates, silverware, cups, drinks, does ALL the hosting duties

And 9 times out of 10 he burns the shit out of whatever cheap burgers he grilled when the wife probably could’ve made it way better
