. . . My mother - largely because of her age and upbringing - is mentally incapable of performing the slightest bit of vehicle maintenance even though she readily has the intelligence and mechanical aptitude to do it... she has a negative emotional reaction whenever you even talk about how things work on cars - like she's not supposed to be interested such things. Most women are stronger than they will admit, but many will only apply that strength to tasks they consider socially appropriate.
So are you saying that it is possible for me to cook?
Damn. . . .
