I couldn't be bothered to find out which bulb was not working in my car when the bulb fault light came on and I asked my partner to have a look and change it for me. I am more than capable of doing it myself Grin

Play if you know the game Smile

Grin so excited about this thread now!

I'm a feminist but...

... I recently ended up crying in a 'debate' about feminism with my husband.

I play the weak femail on bin collection day.

DaanSaaf · 02/05/2018 20:58

Female ffs Hmm

NotUmbongoUnchained · 02/05/2018 20:58

Putting the bins out is a mans job!

RealityHasALiberalBias · 02/05/2018 20:59

I just can’t be fagged to learn how to fix my own bike. I know I should, but my partner does it for both of us and I do plenty of other stuff...

Also, even though I can use all of our DIY power tools perfectly well, I’ll let him do most of the power tool-based stuff when we’re working on the house, cos I hate how noisy they are.

I am a feminist but...

Even though I can mow the lawn I hate doing it so I tell my husband he looks sexy when he does it... works every time

I'm a feminist but....

....I do all the laundry because I can't be arsed to explain yet again what wash and drying programmes each wash goes on....Grin

AsAProfessionalFekko · 02/05/2018 21:01

You can be a feminist and have a female partner [misses point]

VioletCharlotte · 02/05/2018 21:02

I'm a feminist but.... I don't know how to put air in my tyres Blush

CarpeVitam · 02/05/2018 21:03

In the interests of fairness Wink I should add I don't have anything to do with car maintenance/servicing Blush

formerbabe · 02/05/2018 21:04

I'm a feminist but my partner deals with all tradesmen who come to our house and all car maintenance/trips to the garage.

Suits me!

ChickenMe · 02/05/2018 21:04

I'm so not interested in the car and it's seemingly endless services /MOTs/list of demands.

AtSea1979 · 02/05/2018 21:06

I’m a feminist but ....nope can’t think of a single thing I would get a man to do, I’m useless with cars but wouldn’t care if it’s a female mechanic ...but if I was married to a mechanic I suppose I could play.

I'm a feminist but...

I don't go out without mascara, I just can't.
I also let my under arm hair grow all winter and quite like it but come the summer I am shaving it all off in case someone were to judge me Hmm

@GuiltyFeminist I have winter legs - then I shave them at the beginning of summer... just the once

Underarms - I only shave them when my deodorant stops being effective

DJLippy · 02/05/2018 21:22

I'm a femiinist but.....
sometimes I think the only think worse than being sexually objectified is not being sexually objectified

busyboysmum · 02/05/2018 21:29

I'm a feminist but....

I do the laundry and dh chops the wood.

Plus he does loads of boy stuff with the boys whilst I chill with my kindle.... fishing football etc.

ThisisSparta · 02/05/2018 21:34

DJLippy

Are you for real ? Please tell me you are taking the piss?

ThisisSparta · 02/05/2018 21:35

I’m a feminist but -

I get my DH to do all the driving!

MillicentF · 02/05/2018 21:37

I don't like The Guilty Feminist. Too much apologising.

RealityHasALiberalBias · 02/05/2018 21:37

I don’t shave my armpits but I just can’t leave my legs hairy in the summer (tried it one year but was so self conscious the whole time).

tobee · 02/05/2018 21:39

I'm a feminist but I like to make my Dh get the drinks in too lazy to queue at bar.

MillicentF · 02/05/2018 21:40

Sorry OP-I don't mean I don't like you! Blush

Spudina · 02/05/2018 21:40

I can't operate a power tool. And have no interest in doing so. I have no problem in getting a man in to fix stuff.

DairyisClosed · 02/05/2018 21:42

! @cisters do you think v that x trick would work with laundry too?
