Radhika Apte is spot on

Meanwhile desi men and clueless women on Twitter are collectively losing their shit over this. They haven't learnt anything from The Great Indian Kitchen, if they have watched it in the first place

Yikes

Why is the concept of having agency so hard to grasp for desi population? Is it that they know it and feel threatened that women might realise their worth? Or oblivious to it and unable to comprehend it altogether

She likes to cook .. Does she like to work? Or anyone hates monday?

Absolutely your last lines. Patriarchy, as a whole, greatly & completely fears a woman realising that she is worth much more. That she is worth a lot & can exercise her birth-right AKA her agency, as & when she likes. Plus all the Incel men & pick-me women that crowd the Internet, would ofc hate for the mirror to be shown to them. Apte pointed out very correctly how domestic labour is even today, however well-educated/well-paid a woman might be; solely a woman’s job. Esp in her parent’s generation.

No wonder so many women are just quitting Marriage & Men.

How is it a job if you love or enjoy doing it....

I can’t cook Radhika! I don’t think that necessarily means I am a liberated woman. But I love it when a date tells me he can make any type of cuisine at home. I breathe a huge sigh of relief. 😆 I will probably just end up taking some classes.

I haven’t been able to find culinary classes that go beyond the basics!

Her accent is terrible. She got marbles in her mouth ?

These wokeflix kinda dudes are poison to the society. Just look at his Twitter bio. For them women having liberal thoughts are wokes and those who supports them.

That one response to her conversation summaries the thought process of clueless people who criticizes this particular part.

IMO basic cooking is a skill which should be mastered by both gender as it is a survival skill. What she meant is both her parents are professionals but her mother considers cooking as her individual responsibility and social expectations could be the reason. I know many men who loves cooking but they don't cook regularly,they cook only on special occasions.

Like in English winglish movie, where Sridevi's character says if woman cooks it's their duty, if man cooks it's art.

“Mard khana banaye toh kala hai. Aurat banaye, toh uska farz hai.” (When a man cooks, it’s an art. But when a woman cooks, it’s her responsibility)

Her mom cooking is not the issue.

The issue is men thinking household responsibilities fall upon women only.

My husband is an okay cook while I am a bit better. But if he’s helping me prep, taking out the trash & clean, I don’t ask more than that 😂

Also, I didn’t know desi version of red pillers and Andrew Tate fan boys exist 😳😳😳
