I don’t know what’s more sexist. the comment above or the fact you played off of it seriously. Especially with point 1. Like it doesn’t even register that the above comment was an insult and not serious at all and you took that sexist joke to a serious place to play off that men aren’t expected to even be capable to turn a knob and that is somehow acceptable. Do them better than this.
Works both ways though. That was a big point of contention while I was married: if you want special treatment for any item of clothes, it’s up to you to at least turn it inside out and sort it into the “special needs” bin. I’m not reading every label on all the clothes for the entire family.
However she never did. Just complained when it went through the normal wash with hundreds of other items. Who’s your momma now? Your big hairy momma with a beard?
Are women excluded from the group of people whose “mommies do everything for them”? Perhaps commonly, it’s a genuine question.
I do see the thought of it being a mom instead of a dad adheres to traditional gender roles, although I wonder about an individual’s obligation to resist playing into that tradition. I can see it being harmful.
I’m pretty sure they were mocking their lack of responsibility vs saying only women do laundry. It’s the same joke as saying you live in your parents basement.
Do you really think his mom is going to go through all that?
What’s “folding”?
Yeah, aren’t you supposed to just dump your clothes into the clean hamper?
Origami.
Something people on message boards did back in the early 2000s where we left our computers on and cured cancer.
