me feminine??

when it comes to the idea of baking and sweets, its mainly portrayed as a feminine activity. everywhere in society you see the women's role as the one who is in the kitchen baking sweets. i on the other hand enjoy watching shows about desserts and getting in the kitchen every now and then when i have some free time just to cook up a couple delicious sweets. sure i do get made fun of every now and then for doing what i do but it really does not affect me like you might thing it would i like getting in the kitchen and cooking up sweets and desserts it help get my mind of what ever is going on in the outside world and when im done cooking i get to enjoy what i made. if you look into television in todays society you will see that there is a rising fad of masculine bakers. whether it be the the new hit show cake boss or the gritty competition show cupcake wars. in the show cake boss it is a family of italian bakers who make all type of sweets but are especially known for their out of this world cakes the point of me bringing up this show is that shop is run by a man and there are also many men working there. the other sow i brought u was cupcake wars its a competition show to see who can make the best tasting and looking cupcakes. some would assume that a bunch of women would be the competition but there is always at least one male and sometimes that male will come out with the win. so when people criticize me and say derogatory things to me about baking i tend to just let it go in one ear and out the other because baking is a hobby and whether female or male it should be enjoyed by all because it is very interesting and very satisfying when you are done baking.
