Bolding mine. What??? I know a whole slew of men who could not fix a burned out light bulb without help. Do you really think a penis makes you a fixer? Think again.
He probably thinks that such people aren’t Real Men.
I’m a hologram, myself.
I’m both, so my wife got a great deal.
Too hot in the garage, and kitchen counters clean up real nice. Good in the Kitchen!
Like others in this thread I can cook fine, but can’t fix worth shit. So I’ll shore up my own weaknesses thanks.
Do they have a tidier/organizer/bill payer in the vendy though? Just wondering…
Another fine cook here, with an emphasis on homemade, homegrown everything.
I’ve learned how to do a lot of fixes but the workshop will never be my natural habitat like the kitchen is. I’ll take the fixer, please. He’ll be extremely well fed.
What I cook is usually edible, but Ms. P is the better cook. Our older son may be better than either of us, though. When it comes to fixing, I’m probably in the bottom 5-10 percent of the population.
I went with The Fixer. I’m not the best cook in the world, but I’m not a picky eater either. I also don’t mind cooking, and if it turns out poorly, there’s alway takeout, microwaveable meals, etc. On the other hand, if something is broken and you have to wait several days for a mechanic, plumber, electrician, or TV repair person to fix a busted car, toilet, refrigerator, TV, etc., that would be a lot more inconvenient than eating food that might not meet Bobby Flay’s standard but which I would probably be more than happy to eat.
To say nothing of the fact that a takeout meal (or even a restaurant meal) is bound to be cheaper than having a repair person come out to your house, let alone fix anything. I am married to a fixer and am so glad.
I deserve both. Just sayin’
At first I was inclined to the cook but chose the fixer instead. I can cook, fairly well too, but I can’t fix things to save me life.
With my crazy kidney-friendly diet, I have to cook for myself. Fortunately my husband appreciates whatever I make. If anything in the house needs to be fixed, I can usually do that too, but he’s much better at it. So The Fixer wins.
I can cook well enough to satisfy an average person, and my own culinary tastes are basic enough that a super duper cook might feel like they are wasting their talents on me.
A fixer would have more value to me.
Kitchen or garage? The sex has to be good no matter where we do it.
Lucky for my wife, she got both.
Hey, kopek, I got 12 1/2 cents here - can we share the cook (and meatloaf!)?
No, but it is something expected of us. Like cooking was expected of women when I was growing up. That my father was a good cook was odd in the mid-50s.
Which is not to say that some men are bad fixers and some women are bad cooks.
And my penis comes with a tool belt, so there.
An amazing cook who can make heavenly food and presumably work around my dietary limitations? Gimme!
The whole fix-it mechanic thing I can either take care of it myself or find a reputable repair person (I’m doing that now, anyway). I sure would like a break from the daily cooking once in a while, though!
I went with the cook. Hell, I’d def take the cook over Biggus Dickus, …, Bankus Maximus, and Tall Bloke anyday
I need very little repair work, and when I do I hire people.
But I eat everyday. Sometimes multiple times a day.
