I once spoke to a woman who was over 60 and told her that I was self-sufficient, did chores, like cooking, cleaning the whole apartment. I don't like being served. She stared at me and asked if I was a man at all?
Huh? So basically you're an adult who takes care of themselve. It's not manly, or feminine, it's just being a grown up, or at least that's how it should be. Also, we should ditch the ideas of what is traditionally manly or feminine. You're a man, you're still a man when you clean, cook, doing whatever!
