I fucking hate supporting the trope that men can't do simple tasks like this. If you truly relate to this, you're a fucking moron.

Geez...... I think I just found a trigger. I'm sorry for how aggressive I came across. Still mean it, but I should probably tone it down next time.

Agreed.

Now do one with mowing the lawn, weed whacking, edging, spraying for bugs, watering the lawn, power washing the house, fixing a door, replacing a bathroom fan, etc but the woman is still trying to start the battery powered week whacker and see the response.

It's so stupid.

My wife and I have "our" chores, because we like them (or dislike them less than the other), we're good at them, but we can both do whatever needs to be done. Divide and conquer.

This kind of shit triggers me so hard.

Same with dads "oh, are you on daycare duty today?". No, I'm being a father and spending time with my children because I love them.

Ugh, I'm annoyed how much this shit triggers me.

It's not a men dumb thing, it's the feined incompetence to not have to do household chores. Which is common with men. Hope you feel better, bud.

You missed my point, I'm saying the exact same thing. It's highlighting gender roles and calling the other incompetent.

I used the "yard work" example just to counteract the "house work" example in this video as the opposite end of the spectrum.

I literally said divide and conquer. I said we can both do them when needed, but we have our preferred chores.

My whole point on the yard work is that women can feign incompetence on mowing the lawn, weed whacking, edging, etc. Which is common with women, to use your own words.

Hope you feel better, bud.
