female roles?

Every night I make myself a salad to take to work the next day and at the same time I make sandwiches for my boyfriend. I do this without fail.

Would you - or do your feminist principles stop you?

(PS I don't do his ironing!)

    If you dont mind doing this for your boyfriend I dont see why roles or your feminist principles. I think that now people get too involed in sexist issues.My Mum cooks and cleans for my Dad and she doesnt mind and never complains but then again my Dad does the ironing.

    i make my husbands sandwiches every night too, because if i dont, he`ll go to the burger van every day and buy stuff out of the vending machine which costs a bloody fortune. i make them to save us money, and i know he wouldnt bother to do it himself.
    I do have feminist principles but they dont stop me when it comes to saving money, and im realistic enough to know that there are some things that if i dont do, then they wont get done.

    Depends what he does for you back! I can't fix taps or wire things so I don't mind cooking. Sometimes.

    If this is the only thing you've got to worry about you should count yourself very lucky indeed!

    I've done the same and would again. Its no big deal really.
