Opinions…

Sooo I stumbled on a tiktok post where someone captioned their baking with “the feminine urge to bake for no reason at all,” and the comments got surprisingly heated. Some people took it as a harmless/meme-y way of describing a personal feeling, while others argued that phrasing it that way reinforces stereotypes about women and domestic roles. Curious what people here think is there actually anything wrong with that kind of caption, or is it being overanalyzed?

personally i think it’s over analyzed. compared to tiktok’s ive seen where it legit seems like they’re trying to set us back (that one tiktok of the girl coloring in her bfs car while he’s at his “big boy job”), this is extremely tame and lighthearted. some people really just try to make things bigger than they actually are because they want to be miserable
