About year 3 into our marriage, my wife pulled this stunt on me once…..ONCE.

I had to work a 14 hour shift, and when I came home that night, there was no food at all. I asked her, where’s the food at, I’ve been at work on my feet 14 hours. She had the nerve to ask me if I can go back out and pick up something to eat….

I was hot. Livid. Furious. Enraged, etc etc.

What I did was call HER MOM, and told her about her daughter. (Note: Her mom grew up in a house with a stay at home mom, and her dad was in construction). So, she knew 100% where I was coming from, and apologized that my wife wasn’t doing what she was supposed to be doing.


5 minutes later, MIL called my wife and chewed her arse out. Lol

Neither less to say, this “incident” never happened again.

There's a strong ethos among many women that traditionally female tasks like cooking are a form of slavery. That type of misplaced anger isn't easy to fix.

Firstly because the cooking and cleaning performed by slaves was much easier than the hard labor of field work etc. And the male forms of labor are still widely performed but rarely praised.

That is, housewives do safer and less grueling work than men in sanitation, construction, etc but generally receive sympathy. Whereas blue collar men often are considered unsympathetic and undesirable.

The other weird thing about the slave narrative is that the women complaining (about the idea of doing domestic tasks for their husbands or children) often received and treasured that care from their mothers.

And the mothers often (if not typically) treated the children with higher care and respect than their husbands. Making the women complaining about enslavement the slave masters of their mothers.
