Where we women have been free to pursue a profession, we have come a long way in many and nothing will stop our inevitable rise and success. This will take time and we have still got a long way to go but there is nothing a woman cannot do if she so chooses and is free to do so.
However, there is a dark cloud over two professions where it can be empirically proven that men do better than women:
Cooking
The best chefs in the world tend to be masculine. We’re not talking about the most prolific, or the ones that cook every meal. But when it comes to making you pay currency for a meal – men are significantly more successful at it than women.

Dressmaking
Think of a designer. Christian Dior, Halston, Gucci, Yves St.Laurent, Ralph Lauren, Versace, Christian La Croix, Tommy Hilfiger, Tom Ford, Calvin Klein, Jean-Paul Gautier…..
Pay attention. For every Coco there are a hundred McQueens.
We may have equality yet what we lack now is parity!
So I ask you, nay, I implore you,! Take up your pots and pans! pick up a needle and thread! Sear some beef! Crimp some silk!
Encourage your sisters, mothers and daughters!
The next time little Sara wants a toastie – tell her to make it herself!
The next time you wear through your negligee, grab yourself a few metres of wash & wear and a sewing kit!
Do not allow your man to do this for you! Stop him from entering the kitchen. Discourage him from the Singer.
We cannot allow this desperate situation to continue.
No longer will men be the cooks!
No longer will men be the dressmakers!
We women know our place!
