... I am just musing on this. I am a feminist,my DH is a feminist, yet yesterday I was handed an empty paper plate at school and asked to bake a cake for the Christmas fair. I came home grumbling ' I seriously don't have time to bake any cakes' when DH said casually 'oh that's okay. I'll bake a cake'.
That floored me and I cannot help but wonder why. DH is a much better baker than me anyway, but at the time it did not occur to me that with the two of us at home today that it might not be me who had to bake a cake.
It is making me think about my own entrenched assumptions really.
