OK~ I come from a family that has off shoots that are extremely patriarchal. Soooooo my family goes to a HUGE Thanksgiving dinner at a home of one of those on the male dominated side. All the men are watching football while the women chat and cook... so far I was fine... my guy fluctuated between the game and the better game outside (the kids playing football). Well when it came time to eat (huge buffet), without a word being spoken, all the men just sat where they were while the women proceeded to fix their men's plates. I felt sooooooo weird as my guy fixed his own, like I had broken some women submissive family code of honor..... but there was no way in hell I would wait on my guy cause he expected me to do it. When I do it, if I do it, I do it because I choose to. That picture has stuck in my head... even my guy said he could not believe it! Damn am I a bitch or what?!
