Amusing selection–I especially like the “sexy” ones. It inspires the following do-it-yourself reply: Google Images search for GI Jane, Ginormica, Jamie Oliver and Bobby Flay. The world has changed a bit since the ’70s; not much, just a bit.

Very cool piece, thank you.

I notice this alot with TV ads, always shocked that are still so many images of women in the kitchen, or obsessed with cleaning products, etc..

I find myself in the kitchen a lot more than I would like to be, but I’m vegan and also really focused on preparing my own food from mostly organic or local fruits and vegetables. It feels transgressive to me…There’s also this side-issue of making food for my husband (we both work nights, so I’ll make him a portion) and there’s a stigma in the wider culture of vegan food being emasculating for men, people even say soy raises estrogen levels in men (hmmmmm)
