[Jengles 0]

You know that they're still men (Jamaican or American or from anyweh)...still believes that a woman's place is in the kitchen. I guess if I grew up in dem times deh I would have no choice. But in 2008, I still see (some of my cousin that are in their 30s) still come home and play superwoman, because their men flat out REFUSE fi cook, clean, or look aftah pickney, but dem have time fi go sidung round domino table and drop hard. Bway mi no know...but dat is a hard pill fi mi swallow. My look pon mi aunti weh work 3-(12 hour) shifts as a ICU nurse, den afi come home and look aftah hubby and kids. When they came down for my baby shower 5 years ago, my auntie husband tell my daddy (im a do too much house work--- wah mi madda a do). My father tell im seh, u caan expect di ooman fi do everything. My auntie husband just kissteet and go hug up im red stripe...I caan tek im. Gaad know, mi no know how mi auntie tan wid im so rass lang...mi wouda avi push im baxide dung a flight a stairs.

Tre.....I rarely cook. Andre's better at it and works fewer hours around dinner time. I do all the dishes after he's messed up what seems like every single one in the kitchen. It works for us.

my husband and I both cook..cause him love home cooked food....if him hungry and mi no get to the kitchen u best believe him nah wait pon mi..him a go do it himself..there is no rule..I HAVE TO COOK

uumm, I cooked thanksgiving dinner, mr jengles cooks

Shauna~ That is really messed up though. How do you forget something as big as that. I must say forgetfulness and memory loss sure do seem to be a common trait
