Lol, in my family it’s hubby who likes to cook. I do too but sometimes we can get in each other’s way.

My theory is, historically women were the nurturers (ok, not all women, some men are better) they were the mothers, often looked after the vulnerable and so probably they were the more cautious, the more fearful (if you please) because of that role. When an invisible, enemy threatens they may react a little more drastically than men.
