During my pregnancy, my sister’s cat, who had been missing for several months, was found and returned to her. He was also called John. We joked that if we did have a boy, he would be referred to as “John the human”, and the cat would just be John. Seemed fair as he was here first. We thought it would be hilarious. It never came to fruition though as we had a girl. But we were fully prepared for our son to share a name with his aunt’s cat 😂

About the family where all the women "need" to cook for the men: The hunting example isn't really a fair comparison. The problem in the Reddit Story is not about having to go through an unpleasant or morally objectionable task, it's about allowing yourself to be "put in your place". A man who is forced to go hunting despite moral oppositions would definitely have something to complain about, but no one is going to see him as being lesser than the women in his life because of it. In this situation, where the women are forced to serve the men because they are women and are ostracized if they refuse, it is NOT about the activity of cooking. It's about men believing women should serve them, and it's about those same men punishing any woman who will not accept that role for herself. If the girlfriend goes along with this tradition, the "good first impression" of her will be that she is willing to be subservient to the men who want her to be so. And that is going to last long after the meal is over. I agree with Cristine that the male poster in this situation should go cook with the women to stir things up, and I think he should do so even if his girlfriend doesn't come with him. That would make a statement to the family that he sees women as equals and that he's refusing to go along with sexist traditions any longer. He should also apologize to his girlfriend for trying to make her go along with this in the first place.

At least in Europe there is a relatively known app that works like that which is called Too Good To Go, and I also use it every once in a while to get a cheap dinner if I don’t have a lot of groceries at home. Honestly I really like it, you get about 3 times the value of what you pay (like the post said), and a lot of restaurants, bakeries, and even supermarkets take part in it. The left overs are not food that was left on the plate 😅 it’s just food they had prepared to be sold that day but wasn’t, and since they cannot keep it for the next day, this way it is still not wasted.

Hell, she didn’t tolerate any favoritism with her four daughters, when my grandparents helped my oldest sister out financially, my mom advocated for us all to get similar help when we needed it.

In India the gender roles are steeped in that it becomes so difficult to untangle from it, however modern you are. I know a lot of my friends who rejected learning cooking or kitchen activities because it felt forced and the same was not expected of boys. When me and my friends moved out, or now living with partners, we did learn cooking, childhood favourites, essentials. It's not that we are not capable of cooking, it's the rejection of the expectation that girls should learn cooking as young as possible but the same is not applied for boys.

Also I have to add sometimes it feels like because women are expected to cook most meals it is more of a chore? Then less time and effort is put in it. Especially if you're also working or/and raising children. While men in my area tend to cook at special occasions or on weekends (like my parents in law). So it is more like a hobby or a flanting moment, hence it is generally nicer. So I feel like where I'm from (nl) it's less a active rejection thing, but rather gender roles still infuencing our daily lives.

Yeah the sexist family tradition is a problem specifically because it's sexist. It's not just about doing something you don't want (though it's also weird to force your guest to do something against their will, even more weird to make them do chores lmao), it's about the concept of "because you're a woman you have to do X" that makes it really icky. I am a woman and I love cooking, but if someone says I must cook because I'm a woman I'll refuse out of spite.

I would LOVE a mystery food box from a fine dining restaurant. Or just a place that makes their own food. I've worked in a lot of sorts of restaurants, but usually places that make their own food, they give away the food to the employees or throw it out after a day or two because it won't be "the best quality". Not because it's about to go bad, but because the food is like... A left over you put in the fridge from the day before.

For me, theres a cap on luxury quality vs regular quality. Meaning, i think designer or luxury items can be higher quality but there’s a limit on how much better the quality could be. Coach and coach outlet are my favorite bags. The quality is way better than a target bag but is Louis Vuitton significantly better than coach? I dont know, i cant afford LV but thats my point. There’s a cap to how high quality a product can be while the price can climb higher without improving the quality to justify the price. Overall though, people can spend their money as they please. Just because Im too broke for a LV bag doesnt mean other women cant buy one.

The issue here is how you define "quality". If two handbags are identical- same leather, same stitching, same packaging- but one is made entirely by hand in Italy or Japan, and the other is made mostly by machine in Vietnam or China, would you say there's a difference in quality? In terms of materials themselves, if one shirt is made of regular good quality cotton, and the other is made from ELS cotton that comes only from a specific region in Egypt, does that constitute better quality? I may not really care what kind of cotton is in my shirt, but if there is an objective material difference, does that justify a price increase? It's easy for us all to agree that a plain t-shirt with a tiny Off-White logo is not worth $565 by any stretch of logic. But when it comes to luxury goods overall, it's a lot more nuanced than just luxury=scam or luxury=ego.

The app that the op in the first story is talking about is called Too Good to Go. I order from there sometimes, and every time I have ordered, their portions have been pretty massive. Definitely not something I could eat by myself in one sitting...OP was definitely just being selfish not sharing with his girlfriend whom he supposedly loves. If he had given half of the BBQ to his gf and had some of her soup, they could've both been satisfied. Edit: in answer to Cristine's question, different businesses sell their food on the app. For grocery stores, it'll be food that is nearing or just slightly past its expiration date so they can't sell it at full price. For restaurants, it'll often be food that they made the day before, and therefore can't sell full price to customers because it's no longer fresh. They can't give away other customers' leftovers 😅I'm pretty sure that's a health violation

I think its important to note, when talking about buying expensive clothes, there's an ethical argument towards buying more expensive things IF the expense comes from properly paying the people who design, manufacture, ship, and sell those items. Buying a cheaper version of something could be just as unethical if you have the option to spend the money on something that is ethically made. Not to say luxury brands aren't also using sweatshops and buying materials from places with horrific working standards, they absolutely are, but buying a specific brand or paying more money to ensure that the person making the garment was paid a liveable, if not thriveable wage is good actually. If you can.

Yeah, there's definitely a big difference between buying high-quality, ethically-sourced clothing that is double or triple the price of, say, Target clothes, and buying something that costs an exorbitant amount simply for being a name brand known for exorbitant prices. One is being conscious of your cost-to-value ratio and wanting to be a responsible consumer, and the other is, like Ben said, merely about the brand. Not that buying Gucci or Prada or whatever is inherently "wrong"; if you honestly like something and you have the money, go for it. But at the same time remember that the value isn't in the quality and that's not what you're paying for.

Back when my mom was in her early 20s (in the ealry 90s) she was also annoyed that smokers just got a break every hour, so she started going out too. She didn't smoke, but was like well if they get to, then I get to. I think they were surprised but didn't do anything about it, so she just got a break. Also, not to advocate for smoking, but my dad smokes, and he says its actually really good for his work to take a break and walk around. Many times he'll be struggling with a problem and the answer comes to him while taking a break. So, don't smoke, but taking a 5 minute break every hour is actually healthy, especially if you work in a field where you have to do more thinking. But even in other ones that are physical, it just helps regain your strength so you can work more efficiently.

I get Ben's thoughts on the cooking thing. People should be able to cook for themselves as just a general life skill. I think more young men cook now because they don't have a wife right away to do it and they want to eat nice meals. But a lot of young women (including myself here, at 33) feel less compelled for whatever reason, and don't want to be responsible for cooking dinner. I only started doing it because I quit my job and wanted to feel useful, and then kept doing it so I could be in control of dinner.

the app regarding the food waste is called Too Good To Go in case anyone's interested! the whole idea of it preventing food waste is that the food leftover at the end of the place's work hours would be thrown out anyways because they can't serve it the next day. so instead of it being thrown out it would be sold at a fraction of the price. i love using it and sometimes you don't luck out but you gotta read the reviews for that mainly because i've overall had a great experience. for example i got a bag from eataly(the italian grocery store here) with $36 worth of breads for $12 and it lasted us a whole month!

I’m not sure if she pressed charges against the ex husband or if she had to buy her own dog back. Either way it was one of the most horrible things I can imagine.

When I heard “bla bla bla” it prompted me to look at the screen and read myself and I’m glad I did. Please just take the couple extra seconds to read the full story. That is all. Or just have Christine do the reading. I don’t understand why he does this.

The point Ben brought up about men maybe cooking ‘better’ than women now, I think that’s just because it’s more obvious now, how women would’ve been if they’d had the chance. Before they were forced to cook and they had to be good at it and constantly evolving to keep up appearances. Both in front of men and women, now that they don’t have to do that you have the women who have real interest in cooking doing so and women who don’t, not. Also I think men now have more chances to cook as well, from necessity and from less stereotyped roles. So the numbers are probably just evening out. At least that’s what I think.

I don’t really see why it matters in an office environment though because if they’re not getting their work done the boss will see that and act accordingly.

The smoke breaks are so frustrating as a non-smoker. I worked in a kitchen at 17 and was not given a break. Ever. But alllll the servers and busboys and dishwashers who smoked took multiple breaks throughout their shifts. I will never forget being so hot and overwhelmed and needing something from the walk-in fridge. While in there, I took 1 min to calm down and check my phone. The assistant manager walked in, saw me, and pulled me out of the fridge so he could yell at me in front of everyone in the kitchen. It was so degrading, especially considering I worked my butt off and never asked for days off, never complained, never took breaks, etc. That place honestly crushed me. I got my friend a job there and she was treated like an angel and I was treated as second best. I found out right before I quit that she was making significantly more money than me (I started a month before her). She worked hard too but constantly took time off for concerts and other fun teen stuff. I even skipped my prom and other dances so she could go… There was even an old woman who treated me terribly and blatantly told me to my face the only reason I got employee of the month was because I brought them my friend. She would give gifts and things to my friend in front of me, never me. This has been 14 years and it still bothers me… lol

I'm a smoker *unfortunately* (I'm trying to quit) and I don't think it's fair for smokers to get additional breaks to accommodate smoking. 1) it's essentially encouraging smoking to continue when really we should be trying to stomp it out. 2) I feel like surely it encourages non smokers to start smoking so they can also take additional breaks 3) I think if it's alright for one person, then it should be okay for non smokers to take a moment to regroup, stretch their legs ect And finally I think workers don't really get enough breaks generally, if you're working long shifts then you should be allowed a moment, I think in the long run it would reduce stress and actually improve productivity. I'm not talking about hour long breaks but 5 mins here or there just to breathe. But that's just my 2 cents

The guy who took the dog to another state and abandoned it can never be trusted alone with that dog OR with the child. That sets off every red flag. He is only mad that he got caught in evildoing, so he has to complain about her invading his privacy. He is TRASSSHHH
