Retail therapy, that’s what women shopping is something called. And yes sometimes going out and buying things can be fun. But it’s not something I can afford to do all the time.
Normal household shopping is more mundane. How many tins of beans or loaves do I need this week. Will I need to go out more than once? How long will things last?
My hubby says he hates shopping. So I asked him if he thought I enjoyed it? We don’t have the skills to order on line and I prefer to vary what I get. I like variety when I shop and seeing the things that are there.
But shopping is not a pleasure. Its a chore. Like washing up or doing the dishes.
Let me let you into a secret. Women are not genetically programmed to do household chores. We are not robots, not domestic goddesses not slaves or maids. If we have partners they should share the work. Just because women have generally always managed household chores doesn’t mean they always will do or should.
I can’t understand why you can call a woman a ‘slut’ for having an untidy or messy home, but you can’t use the same expression for men? Why are women picked on?
‘Treat them mean, keep them keen’ ? No ‘Treat them fair, do your share!’ Should be the slogan!

Slut here doesn’t mean that. It means a woman who will have sex with anyone they want, but the same holds for men. They can do that, no big deal, but a woman?

Ah, I didn’t know that. It’s funny how people use words in different contexts. And if you only hear it in that context you don’t necessarily know the correct one x

I don’t think so. It’s like pissed meaning drunk in the UK and angry in the US.

Pissed off means angry here, too, but I guess we abbreviated it. :p

Btw, thousand years ago I saw an episode of “Changing Rooms” & one of the decorators mentioned “slut’s wool” under a bed. Took me a second to figure out that slut’s wool was “dust bunnies.” 🐇

Down here in Hertfordshire and Essex a slut is a loose woman who has sex with lots of people. (Whereas a man who does the same thing is called a Stud! Some serious double standards going on here!)
