This is something I've noticed a lot...women really can't wash up properly. They ALWAYS use far too much washing up liquid and end up with a sink full of bubbles, then bubbles all over the draining rack and everywhere. I prefer to wash up in just a few inches of hot, slightly soapy water, and rinse off under the tap as I'm putting things on the drainer. This way I never use more than half a sink of water to wash up the stuff after a meal for 6!
Women + dishwashers = rubbish as well. Us blokes, with our logical way of thinking and far superior spatial awareness can load up a dishwasher in such a way that the water flying around in there can get to every part of every item. Women, with their random thought processes and inferior spatial awareness, have a tendency to stack a dishwasher in such a way that dirty items are shielded from the water and still come out dirty. It's like they imagine there are little robots in the dishwasher that physically move everything around to wash it properly. Ladies, I can assure you that this isn't the case! The other problem with women loading dishwashers is that they always leave things poking down through the rack, or sticking up too high, so that the spraybars can't rotate, and then blame the dishwasher when stuff comes out dirty.
Cooking...well, I suppose women can do an acceptable job there. Obviously us blokes are better and are keen to demonstrate this fact when we have the time, which is why a higher proportion of us take over when camping. Also, I think it's safer if us blokes do it, after all women + open flames + tents = recipe for disaster. Bit too much to think about, and with poor spatial awareness I imagine the women putting the ol' barbie right next tot he tent and not really thinking about what might happen. At least us blokes make the home kitchen relatively safe by providing ovens and hobs that are securely fixed in place away from flammable materials.
