So…. this is my two cents on the plate thingie…

I just think people act like it’s harmless, but it’s never just about the food. Another woman offering to make a married man a plate isn’t being generous, she’s positioning herself. I mean, it’s not hard to see. I see why it could be for guys to catch on, but for women? Um… no. Not hard at all. We can see it.

And I’ll be honest, I don’t cook, as everyone on here knows, lol. I’ve never been good at it so I just don’t do it at all. Thankfully, I married a man who not only enjoys cooking, he’s excellent at it. But just because I don’t cook doesn’t mean someone else gets to do it for him. I mean, I keep Mr. CG “well fed” without knowing how to cook (trust me, he’s not starving), therefore he doesn’t need unsolicited servings from another kitchen.

At the end of the day, it’s never about the plate of food, it’s about the seat at the table. And that seat is taken.

And WIFLSRN to women who attempt to cross that boundary? Bon appétit somewhere else.
