Why do men put the tea towel or oven gloves over their shoulder when they’re cooking?

[Snooks1971]

Just that really. DH does it. He slings them over his shoulder as if he’s bloody Gordon Ramsey. Then I can’t find them because they’re on his stupid shoulder. He’s only dishing up crinkle cut chips and beans fgs.

Great, thanks for that Never noticed it before, but DH does this too, all the time. So now I have to add this grievance to the supervillain-esqe eyebrow and beard rubbing and the cartoon like gulping whilst drinking.

I agree with you, OP, despite all the replies. I do loads of cooking and never do this with the tea-towel. I have only ever seen it done by men!

I used to tuck it into my apron belt. But I was a chef. It's very handy to have with you at all times. Never put it on my shoulder because I don't want my ponytail touching anything in the kitchen.

Fucking is his middle name
