I figured " plate fixin" was a synecdoche .
It encompasses the tradtional female role

you know to be honest, making a plate isnt that much of a big deal for me moreso than the ability to be able to cook.

Absolutely.
And after a while, it certainly can start to feel like a duty *side eyes that nucca*

This is strictly my opinion (what I used to do):
In GF/BF type
relationship I would sometimes cook for my BF, I would never clean his
place, do his laundry and I've never been asked to do that.
As a
wife, I like cooking and I do it well so that's my thing. Cleaning also
because I work a part time job and have more time than my husband. If we
both worked full time, we'd have to share these responsibilities.
I firmly believe that everyone must know how to cook and clean because these are the necessities of life.
I don't believe that there are "duties" that work for everybody.
Also,
I must say that I find it funny some of you think a man will marry you
if you do everything for him as a mere GF/fiancee whatever. I know
plenty of lazy, slovenly, mouthy married b*tches who are somehow able to
keep a man.

I like to fold, but from the looks of my bedroom right now, you couldn't tell.
I love organization though and would never want anyone to fold or wash my clothes, unless it was a dry cleaners/maid service.
If I had a male s/o, I wouldn't mind doing his laundry. I really enjoy it. However, when dating a girl....fck no. I don't know why, and I would never wash our clothes together either. I am not into folding her panties or bras, but I fold boxers into the cutest squares.
