They aren't noticing that THE GUY IS UP AT 4:30 am. Well that can be dark and lonely so the wife gives him a psychological boost to face it. Of course he can make his own breakfast. But why spend your life alone? He got married not to be alone, right?

If she didn't see him at breakfast, they would see each other only once in 24 hours, when both tired. Recipe for divorce. And making the breakfast allows him to use whatever brains he has at that hour to focus on the coming day's tasks.

Your man gets further in life that way. It adds up. Guess who participates in that financial success? You.

Yes, emotional work is work. Work brings rewards.

And all this white supremacy stuff highlights brightly how much power is operating here, how much power is burning in the core of the family, emanating from the wife. That supposedly powerless person.

It is an unintended compliment. They scream how she's the engine driving the whole thing.

Some people just adore solitude and can't figure out why anybody would want a human presence. They think the woman-man thing is only dating. Dinner, candlelight. It's not. There is more to it.

Breakfast is a magic time. It is so hard to leave the bed and face the world. Anybody who makes that a nice experience is going to be worshiped. But you should never expect intelligence at breakfast. Say little.

Yes. It's gendered.

If she's a cop and he is home, yes, he can make her breakfast. But in general the woman nurtures and the man defends. So what?

Wounded soldiers don't lie on battlefields crying for their fathers.
