Don't feel sorry for Me....I have no problem being masculine.....There is nothing masculine about grilling. Guys wearing aprons, sauces lined up in neat little rows along the grill....metal spatula hung like some wannabe six shooter at the hip.....and of course....the brillo pad to keep the grates clean......I have news for him....grilling is NOT masculine......Which speaks volumes about how large his mangina is....
Oh Puh-leeeze! Grilling is MASCULINE. It's a classic American Male Trope: The Dads or The Men grilling. Fire! Meat! And there is nothing wrong with that.
Personally, I am THRILLED that mr. boe views grilling as His Domain. Dinners prepared outside are his responsibility; indoor dinners are mine. We grill a lot...and I do the dishes.
Please....
Masculine is killing, dressing, and butchering the animal and then spitting it on a branch to turn over an open fire....
The American male who thinks that grilling is some kind of male thing extending from the cave days is a fool......
I grill....but I don't consider it a part of the masculine that defines Me.....Its just a summer time chore....
Then I feel sad for you. Men grilling is SEXY!
I even grill during the summer.....but Its not on the list of "How to define a man".......
And I'm damn sexy regardless if My grill is hot or cold.
Not disagreeing with you, but some people don't have the access/opportunity to do that on a regular basis, for whatever reasons.Masculine is killing, dressing, and butchering the animal and then spitting it on a branch to turn over an open fire....

So I would consider conventional grilling to be a fairly reasonable substitute.
Regardless, anyone who feels the same angst that the person in the OP does about grilling must have grown up as a bubble-wrap kid.
I read that ridiculous tripe yesterday. I wanted to reach through and slap the author. What a jackass.I fear for America. I fear for America because far to many young "men" have been groomed to be Pussified Betas. This pretty much sums it up:
I hate how much I love to grill. It’s not that I’m inclined to vegetarianism or that I otherwise object to the practice itself. But I’m uncomfortable with the pleasure I take in something so conventionally masculine. Looming over the coals, tongs in hand, I feel estranged from myself, recast in the role of suburban dad. At such moments, I get the sense that I’ve fallen into a societal trap, one that reaffirms gender roles I’ve spent years trying to undo. The whole business feels retrograde, a relic of some earlier, less inclusive era....
Grilling feminism and masculinity A grand unified theory.
I wasted time out of my life to read that tripe. In my defense, I really thought he would eventually have something to say other than his grill is an extension of his penis. The only penis he permits himself to have. Even there, he takes pains to let us know that even in the most masculine pursuit he can possibly imagine himself doing, he still has to get prissy over it.
Really sad. Where have the men gone and what the hell are these androgynous creatures?
I dunno, they're pretty sullen and convinced of their own superiority to everybody else. It's hard to break through that cocoon of self-important arrogance.I wasted time out of my life to read that tripe.

The Prog SJ culture has turned men into Beta-Neuters. It's so much easier to control them this way.

Women are not all the same and do not all want the same thing.
That's like saying all men really prefer girly little blondes which is simply not the case.
Go to any bookstore and take a look at the romance section of what books women want. The female fantasy is being kidnapped by pirates and tied to the mast awaiting the dashing captain's pleasure.Women are not all the same and do not all want the same thing.

Have you ever, in your life, met a woman who finds prissy men attractive?Women are not all the same and do not all want the same thing.

Well, as an expert on being a woman who has had MANY conversations with other women over the years, the vast majority still prefer Real Men who Take Responsibility and can do Manly Stuff.
