Why do we imagine a man-chef as soon as we think of a restaurant kitchen? Why don't we think of the woman who has been responsible for cooking since the first days of the humankind? Is it because of this exact reason - cooking everyday - that women loose some "cooking passion", some "cooking touch" that best men-chefs have?
Aren't women considered to be more "creative" by nature, with vidid imagination, which is so important in the kitchen?
Or is it simply because it's a tough job to be a chef - spending a long day on your feet, among hot pots & pans, pressure & stress, and physically not many women can handle it? (though we can still see a lot of women working at factories or other places doing originally a man's work?
Or are women just tired of cooking at home to go to cook somewhere else?
And who will be cooking at home where there is a man-chef in the family: the wife or the husband?

Sasha, why do you ask rhetoric questions? :)
ReplyDeleteHave you seen Julie and Julia with fab Meryl Streep?
ReplyDeleteI hate to say that, but can it be an effect of a male-dominated world? Why are there fewer women than men in politics? Why are women's average wages lower than men's? You get the point..
