Women and Christmas

[Smartleatherbag]

Apologies if this has been done to death, but may I have a short rant with the like minded?
Everywhere right now, at the school gates, work, on social media, women are running themselves ragged while their male partners do sweet fa, or very little. So many women take on this responsibility and have it foisted on them.
It drives me potty!
My husband is in charge of Christmas here. I have health problems, so it's always fallen to him, apart from cooking. All the shopping, gifts, cards, organising, he does it. So then I get the 'ooh you've got him well trained" thing. No. Any adult can do these things.

Prolly Seneca, he had strong views about sprouts, as I recall.

Back up where you were little thread.

Brussels sprouts are so named because they are the only size of cabbage that can be carried through the crowded Christmas streets of that city. They can cope with baguettes, but cabbages are just that bit too large. Also a true story.
