lol, this is actually a highly thread worthy topic...good move...
the thing is service....men serve their women, women serve their men......
it's that exchange of service that makes the bond strong.....
when in many social settings, it has been traditional and customary for a woman to serve her man by making him his plate for him......
in fact, many single women use this as an opportunity swoop in on a man.....
it shows her willingness to serve him and is a gesture that many women take pride in...
i remember when me and my wife first started dating...she always considered it her pleasure to make sure i didn't get up, and she makes my plate for me.....like i was to get up on my own...she would be insulted.....
as it would send the message that she can't take care of her man......
and while i completely understand many people don't subscribe to customs and traditions, and courtesies and all that....there are many people who do... and place high value on these things... it hold importance to them...
when we're at home, more times than not i'm cooking, i'm making the table, i'm washing the dishes.....i do a lot of this stuff at home.....in my home i essentially serve my family....
when we're out somewhere...she immediately assumes the role as the server....and the funny thing is i don't think we ever had a formal conversation about this, it's just assumed and customary for us
