[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It strikes me that he is struggling with this supposed incompetence in "pink" areas; in other words, tasks that misogyny has historically relegated to women -- cleaning and child care. I say supposed because I think I agree with you; that he likely just doesn't want to do it. I don't know what you do about this. It has got to be hella frustrating. [/quote] OP here and yes, this is a pattern with him. [b]Sometimes he'll even vocalize it like "ugh this isn't very manly[/b]" if he's doing something he thinks of as feminine. We've talked about it and he knows this attitude is toxic and sets a bad example for the kids. I think the feigned is something he may have developed in response to this, like he wants to say "ugh no that's a woman's job" but knows that's bad so instead he's like "huh, too hard, I can't figure it out."[/quote] lol As if anyone talks like that out loud. Lol [/quote]
