the one I think of immediately is that my dad would always say “stop being such a girl” when I complained about things. I picked up the phrase when I was young without thinking about it
then I said it to someone in elementary school and they said “what’s wrong with being a girl” and I was like wait yeah wtf why am I saying this
That certain activities are girly or “women’s work” and should be avoided by men. No matter your gender, knowing how to cook, clean, and sew are all useful skills.
