am I the only one who opens the window after waking up? I don't find it strange, it gets stuffy after 8/10 hours and you need to refresh the room before making up the bed
Right ? The air inside a house needs to be renewed because closed spaces get polluted by human activity very easily, how is that not normal ? I knew I could count on you Meryl Streep.
Could be? I am European and I don't know any better than to leave the window open a little during the night. One time I didn't, I slept in a room with two others and woke up with a massive head ache. Next time same thing. I'll stick to opening a window at night :)
It's not that they're women, it's that they're adults. & knowing how to clean your own clothes or cook is a basic lesson all adults should have learned, man or woman.
I totally learned how to sew in home economics in the 8th grade and I still use that skill. 30 and male. They should call it “independent living skills”.
My grandmother taught me that: it's actually really important to ventilate your home at least 5 minutes and especially your bedroom every day, so yes it does make sense to me to open your window and pull the sheets so that the bacteriae don't stay in your bed. Just like if you drink water that's been in a bottle for a week/month: wouldn't do that would you? Fresh water is healthier right? A fresh bed is healthier too. Pro tip to not get sick all the time ;)
Ours is FACS class now instead of home ec. They do actually teach the kids to cook, sew, balance a budget and I honestly forget what the other one is lol
Actually, it's a good idea to air out your sheets before you make your bed in the morning. There are tons of little organisms that live on our bed sheets, and by airing it out, you're reducing their numbers before you lock them in again by making your bed. I pull back my sheets when I wake up and let my bed air out while I eat breakfast and shower, etc. Then I make my bed before I leave the house.
Jeff C airing out requires fresh air. Americans often leave their windows closed all the time leaving the air stagnant and actually quite smelly. It is smart to open your windows for at least 30 mins a day.
The reason I leave my windows closed so much is that we have two seasons where I live: Too Damn Hot and Too Damn Windy. Ok, to be fair, we also have a week or two (nonconsecutive) of Too Damn Cold. That's about the only time I open my windows, to help save energy for the next day when it gets Too Damn Hot again.
I get that. I live in the desert so it's not preferable to open a window when the AC is on. I usually sleep with my window cracked regardless, cause I do think I sleep better when there's some fresh air coming in (as fresh as can be in the city, anyway). Do you live in the Texas panhandle or something?
Home Economics is just as important as math or science in school. You need to learn how to survive ie. cooking a decently, nutritious meal. lol this goes for both men and women.
I failed home ec. Wasn't that I couldn't cook it's just that we had so much to do in maybe 52 minutes and it was meant to be divided between two or three people and we didn't have the numbers so everyone could have one partner each, I was often alone with a mountain of dishes, burning food and my hands breaking out in dermatitis from handling meat.
F Xu They got rid of home ec in my school. it's still called home ec but all we do is projects in Microsoft word. the teacher has been teaching regular home ec for years and the students know more than she does. the class is supposed to make us" better adults" yet not everybody is enrolled in the class. I was in regular home ec last year and liked it but I hate it now.
Why are they acting like this? I'm a modern, independent woman and knowing how to clean and cook for yourself is not an "old fashioned codex" lol it's being an adult! And is it so hard to comprehend that letting fresh air into your room after sleeping in it all night is that that "crazy"😂
Old comment sorry, and yes, it's good to open your windows after sleeping, but compared to their other options? It could have easily been "put on robe" and then "open the window." It was a weird question.
While for some reason it's weirdly 'trendy' to be against becoming a house-wife, let alone a 'wifey'... I just can't imagine someone being much of an intellectual if they can't carry out certain chores.
it's not being against being a housewife, its being against the fact that people still use the term housewife for a homemaker, housewife is outdated and obsolete when we have the word homemaker that is not gendered that does not further push the outdated role that a *edgy teen voice* womens place is in the kitchen lols. Thats it.
There's nothing wrong with the term house-wife..? If you're someone's wife and you have your duties be keeping up the condition of your home and family, then you are a house-wife.
Aliya Huet I have nothing against it, but its kinda like I said before, why say housewife when you could literally just say homemaker for both a husband and wife, like its just easier, also if we wanna be technical the word housewife has a oppressive history to it i.e the submissive stfu wife who doesnt speak unless spoken to and sews her pain away (again outdated) lmfao, but honestly im just confused why people still say housewife, like homemaker is just so easy to say ..?
Well to be literal, that is what a lady of the house would be, a housewife. While it may be offensive or hold negative connotations, you could go as far as to just call them unemployed. But hey, that's what they actually are.
I mean I fully believe that the a lot of the ideas of the 1950s on homemaking are outdated, but they are acting like home economics isn't a class that is one of the most important you can take. You probably won't ever need to use algebra, but every adult should know how to cook a decently balanced meal, sew a button on, balance a checkbook, create a budget, and do laundry and general house cleaning practices. Home ec. should be required for all students, because society is running short on functioning adults.
No need to act like algebra is also not important in order to make the case for home economics. People need to understand that mathematical subject are primarily meant to teach students to think.
I understand that the sexism was prevalent in that era, but some of these questions actually teach you good habits. They were already against it before it even started. How can you be against "opening you window" or "making your bed".
Dainty Daisy The quiz asked what you should do first. I would assume you’re want to put on a robe or something to cover up whatever pajamas/lingerie you’re wearing. Also, why on EARTH would opening your window be an option for the first thing you do when you wake up?
My windows open at night so that option makes no sense for me... Also many of these questions like how often you shud wash ur hair etc really depend from person to person. So the quiz itself wasn't great although I do agree that all HUMANS (irrespective of whether they are men or women) should know basic life skills, just for their own good.
@@impish_snake3526 Because you want to see the sunlight and smell the fresh air. It's common sense and the first thing I do. Then I make my bed and do everything else.
Actually, opening a window and airing the underside of your quilt and your sheets kills and removes bacteria in the room whilst preventing build ups of various chemicals and gasses that are emitted from various fabrics. Ventilation is a hugely overlooked part of life, but the studies show it's really good for health, especially in modern homes which tend to be more 'sealed'.
As an actual student nurse, air does not kill bacteria. If it did, bacteria would only exist in water and washing your hands would be irrelevant. Fresh air is great for your lungs, but if you live in a gross smoggy city opening the window will make the air quality worse.
Yo, that egg washing rule is actually a good idea. You actually get salmonella from the OUTSIDE of the egg, when the bacteria on the shell comes into contact with the inside, as you break it. (so if you don't want to get salmonella from raw cookie dough: wash that egg, honey!) #themoreyouknow
No no NOOOO! WASHING the egg pushes the bacteria through the pores of the shell! You want to WIPE the egg, not wash it. Source- The dude I buy my eggs from, who's been raising chickens for 40+ years.
Gypsily Rosely No because when you wash the chicken and the meat you'll spread the bacteria. The bacteria will die anyways when you cook the chicken or meat.
I get that, but that's just a part of my preparation...cutting off fatty or unwanted parts etc. IMO washing the meats before cooking it is totally fine if like always anything the raw meat touches gets bleached and thoroughly cleaned.
Gypsily Rosely I have never heard of washing meat like that, none of my immediate or extended family do it, we didn't do it in home ec in school and none of my friends do it, maybe it's a culture thing? I live in Ireland
Idk but not being able to like cook or clean isn't "quirky" it's something to be looked down on. How are you a grown adult but don't even know how to feed yourself or wash your clothes? Like to not be able use an oven isn't something cute lmao it's a lack of self sufficiency
mandy soto I don't know about LA but in New York a lot of people don't cook a lot because cooking for one person is about the same price if not more expensive then just ordering takeout and since you're in the city everything is conveniently located
I think that cooking is a basic thing most humans should be able to do but I don't think a specific gender should HAVE to clean and sew if they'd rather not. If they would like to and aren't forced to then it's absolutely fine to be a "housewife".
my mother sent my brother out into the world, knowing how to wash a load of clothes, and how to fix a box of mac &cheese. open a can of soup, as well as make a grilled cheese sandwich, they may not have eaten like kings, but they never starved to death...
I hand wash too not only a wash machine is expensive they increase your eletric bill and consume water even if the new ones has water consumption reduced...
Yellow House if you didnt know how to clean up after yourself you would trip over all the rubble on the floor and not be able to go to your car to get fastfood, if you couldnt clean up after yourself(BASIC housework) you would lose your phone and wouldnt be able to call a delivery service or friends. Like i said, how would you be able to make it to your car when you trip over all the mess you didnt clean up and break both your legs so you wont be able to go to the car to drive to the store to buy premade food.
hurt animal abusers paws that's really pathetic. They said they aren't so good at housework that doesn't mean they're messis who don't own a trashcan 😂😂😂😂
Hey buzzfeed: you can be a feminist AND enjoy domestic tasks such as housekeeping and cooking. I don't get why people these days like to brag or joke about being lazy!
They never actually said you shouldn't enjoy domestic tasks. Each of the women ended up talking about what they're bad at instead of what they're good at. Nothing universal across the board.
Airing out your covers/sheets is actually not a bad idea. During sleep, the body's heat and moisture creates ideal growing and living conditions for all the microscopic things you don't want populating your sheets. If you immediately make your bed after standing up, i.e. cover the bed neatly with your covers/sheets, you're just prolonging the period of ideal conditions for the house dust mite, for example. So, leave everything in a messy bundle on the edge of the bed for a bit, with an open window. Then after half an hour you can make the bed.
exactly. i was actually getting a little mad when they started saying "they don't know anything about beds or sheets" lmao they should educate themselves on that before they talk
@@n0ctem845 Depending on the type of hair. Some people are better off never washing their hair. With hair like mine, I find if I don't wash it for three days or more, it is just greasy and flat and sad. Sure, washing every day isn't healthy, but everyone's hair is different in terms of how to treat it. :)
The airing out thing is legit, tho. You sweat as you sleep. If you immediately make your bed, you're trapping that moisture in there and voila, bacteria city.
BTW the modern term for "home economics" is Human Science. The term home economics is quite offensive to human science/ family and consumer science majors like me, because it is such an outdated term. I didn't pay for 4 years of college and get a Human Science degree just to be a house wife, I did it so I can prepare teenagers for adulthood.
ChocolateChip Muffins786 you watch too much reality television sweetheart. You can hate all you want, I am very content with my career choice of being a high school human science teacher thank you.
human science sounds weird in context of what I expect from the title vs one titled home ec and it's actual content. What exactly does human science cover?
eggs come pre-washed in the US now, but the rule still applies to most countries. this decreases the risk of infection because it removes bacteria from the shell of the egg which can get in your food when you crack it. the downside to pre-washed eggs is that the process removes protective layers from the shell, making the egg go rotten faster if not refrigerated.
Taking care of a home/managing your life/taking care of yourself and belongings isn't something anyone can say "that's not my thing" about...that's a human, adult thing. I wish I would have taken it in school because I might have learned how to budget, balance my check book, remove stains, cook/handle food sanitarily and such much sooner in life. I think everyone should know these things.
Why is airing out your house and your bed such a strange concept for them. It's good to have fresh air in your home. I can't imagine having my house closed up all the time.
My mom always turned down the bed covers for the morning and after breakfast go make them. She used that expression "airing them out". It had to do with body odor methinks since hairwashing was maximum once a week, as were baths.
Layla Abdush-Shaheed you cook eggs so you don't get salmonella. The whole washing eggs question probably came from when they had chickens at home that produced all of their eggs.
Sydney Cousins some people eat raw eggs. They wash them. Samonella comes from chicken poop. When you break an egg that's the chance for you to come into contact with salmonella. They don't really clean eggs before you get them, because of the expectation that you will be cooking them.
It not just poop you have to wash off of unprocessed eggs. The eggs are encased in a vaginal lining, this makes the shells less porous and helps them keep longer.
I dont even wash my hair 2 a month but I have very thick black afro and not supposed to wash it often as.I put in extension for over a month which is normal
Fefe G Same, I wash my hair once every three weeks if I flat iron it and once a week it I do natural wash and goes (_but that's only because I need to wash the gel outor else I get curly stuck clumped together and end up losing hair trying to get them out_).
i meannnnnn, i understand the feminism but it actually makes me feel more feminine and self sufficient knowing i can cook my own meals and do my laundry
The deal is that women have to learn how to cook and sew, because they will need a man to take care of them, along with boys learning shop, so they can possibly learn to pump gas. My mom taught me how to cook. there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to stay home, and raise the next generation of citizens, It's just should not be the only option for women.
Hmm. I wonder if the men who do and enjoy taking care of themselves by cooking their own food and cleaning their own homes/stuff have secret or undiscovered vaginas.
Theyre not saying they don't know how to take care of themselves. Theyre saying that they dont really give af about the basic chores. Kristen knows how to feed herself and cook things, she just doesnt really want to she doesnt give af.
So i had basic home economics in 8th grade, learning how to cook and sew... i was already learning that at home. Then... i think it was either my sophomore or junior year in high school, i took a class called "Life After High School". It was more geared towards real adult responsibilities; how to present yourself in job interviews, planning meals with a budget, how to handle your finances, how to sew. So it was partially like home economics, but an updated version. Like i said, i was already learning all of these things at home, and my teacher was always impressed with the seriousness i did things. I mean... I'm the only one who brought my own thimble to the sewing portion of the class😂. I miss that class😊
bc home ex tests now are much different since the class is centered on different things (so this gives insight as to how people back in the day would've seen stuff)
Wait, they always told me to open my window in the morning, why is it strange? Like, you need fresh and clean air when you wake up, because it's good for your body, isn't it obvious? And i didn't take home ec (i'm italian)
Why is everyone reacting so rudely towards these girls not knowing how to do some chores? Why didn't all of you'll react when boys in previous so many videos commented about how they can't cook or carry out some basic chores? Why is normal if guys say that but oh so wrong if a girl says that? And also, Kristen even said that she's the person you call to ask how to change your tire and not for something home chore related. That would've been a totally normal thing if a guy had said that.
If you don't clean your house that is gross anyone can clean and anyone can change a tire. Just because you don't like doing it doesn't mean you are incapable of doing it.
Ok for the one who says she never does laundry and acts all proud of that fact. I am all for women being able to change tires but for gods sake, learn to do laundry too. They are not mutually exclusive. This goes for men, women girls and boys and every gender identity in between. Every human who wears clothes should be able to wash those clothes. The same goes with just some simple basic cooking- if you are a human that eats food (and that one girl clearly does!), learn how to cook something. ALL GENDERS need to learn those skills to become self sufficient adults. It's not edgy or progressive or liberated to not know how to cook at all or how to do your own laundry. It's just lazy and childish to expect there will always be someone to do that for you. Just because those were traditionally "women's work" doesn't mean women should avoid them now. It's all the more reason for ALL people to learn them.
honestly tho this pissed me off because most of the questions they features were just common sense and not sexist at all, but they were trying to prove a point so bad they ended up pretending to be proud that they didn't know not washing an egg can give you salmonella and how to do laundry. Like on god, you don't have to be the reverse of a house wife just to prove a point.
bekki_31 Salmonella it's actually on the outside of the egg, you need to wash them specially if you get really fresh eggs sometimes they even have poop on the shell, so there is a chance of contaminig (is that a Word?) your meal if the manufacturer didnt wash the eggs properly. Sorry for the poor phrasing
I remember taking Home Ec in 1984. She taught us how to cook several different things and we had to learn the proper placement of the plates, cups, silverware and napkins and there was a test on this. lol I made a homemade cheese cake and homemade chocolate cake in that class. It was a great class.
Devin should get extra points because at least she knows how to keep a clean bathroom. We remember that one episode with the bath-bombs. Also, this was the 1950s.... a time when many families still lived on farms. You washed eggs for a simple reason. Because they came out of chickens from the ones owned by the family. They were dirty, and needed to be washed. Also, egg shells back then were thicker than today. The whole processing plant style of producing eggs has made the shells quite a bit thinner. Mainly because raw eggs are polished to look better to consumers at the store. When you do that, the shells get thinner.
I feel like everyone should know how to cook and clean and stuff if spouse number one works spouse number two should cook and clean so they can come home to a clean house after a hard day of work and vice versa. if they both work they can both take turns cooking and cleaning or the kids can help out. That simple.
The question about opening the window as the first thing to do in the morning seems to based on the fact that very few homes had central air conditioning in 1954 & windows were still the main way the homes were ventillated. As for washing eggs before use, that would imply eggs were still not washed off in the processing plants, like they are nowadays in the U.S.--that's still true in much of Europe, which is why eggs there are still sold in markets at room temperature. It's the washing off off of the outer coating that makes it necessary to refrigerate them
Baley Hledsoe buzzfeed often makes short videos , how were they supposed to do that with 19 questions? they probably filmed them all and only the "funniest" questions and reactions made it into the video
My brothers Boy Scouts are learning survival skills, camping, and building with wood and tools. My girls scouts learned how to cook, bake, sew, and how to do laundry. That is why I started to hate Girl Scouts, and recently quit
1. It is stuffy without central air conditioning and heating. 2. Airing the bed sheets allows the sweat to evaporate before making the bed, keeping the sheets fresher. 3. Fresh eggs had a membrane from being laid that prevented the eggs from spoiling so you only washed them before using them. Imagine life without the internet-there were reasons to do some of these things that no longer exist.
It’s so disappointing that some schools don’t have Home Ec as a class anymore. People these days are so obsessed with technology, and kids won’t know how to make a simple meal, or do the laundry. They need to learn so many things that they will use later in life, such as writing a check. Most kids don’t know anything with general stuff like that.
Oh god I hope not. If you wash chicken you are spreading bacteria all over your kitchen. Meat does not need to be washed. Just bake or cook it and it's safe to eat.
Not just foreign people, a lot of people in the states do too. But quite a few also don't because if you're gonna cook it, you're gonna be killing all the bacteria anyways.
EikippieJ This argument is ridiculous. Cutting, marinading and otherwise preparing your chicken spreads just as many germs. The real issue is people who don’t know how to clean a kitchen.
the opening window thing in the morning makes sense in old buildings - even as a single person in a room with a 3m ceiling and about 10-15m² it gets really stuffy over the seven hours I sleep, and the air is stale and thick, so opening the window and airing out the whole room makes sense- we live in a pretty old building, old enough to count as historic anyway -by german standards lol- and there is absolutely ZERO air conditioning! If you don't regularely air out rooms, it becomes IMPOSSIBLE to breathe well in there; our kitchen window is almost permanently open at this point cause all the smells WILL get stuck for weeks if we don't leave it open, no kidding. Plus, I gotta agree with a lot of the people here - while I'm not really GOOD at cleaning/cooking, I still learned how to sew in school extra curricular; make a decent meal, clean out most common stains and do laundry etc from my mom, who was a house-wife for a while after she lost her job - but my dad builts furniture so HE taught me how to put a decent nail in a wall, fix shelves to walls, repair and assemble furniture, various things about how cars work (even if I don't even have one lol), how to properly do dishes by hand - I like being single, and I have no problem asking for help if I do need it, but like? Wouldn't it be annoying to not be able to perform basic tasks? I guess this is a big case of comedy and that stupid thing we do where you downplay your skills massively to not appear arrogant, haven't watched the whole video yet though...
Uh, why are they surprised that the covers need to air out? We all have mites that live on our skin, you should NEVER make the bed right away when warm! If you do, you're just making it easier for them to reproduce faster :s This is something everyone should know!! Especially since allergies is such a big problem nowadays. "When you make your bed in the mornings, you’re trapping millions of dust mites in your bed, protecting them from drying out and dying in the bright daylight and giving them a safe place to eat, poop, and breed. These little guys love being tucked in every morning because it keeps them safe from the sun and alive to continue their disgusting little life cycles the next night." So yeah. Gross.
When you wash chicken you spread bacteria from the chicken onto your hands and the kitchen which can lead to salmonella. When you cook chicken the bacteria gets eradicated anyway so there is no point
Right? You wash the chicken, wash your hands, wash your sink out. Ta-daaaa. You’re touching the chicken anyways so you’re getting germs on your hands so why tf not wash it?
Not everyone touches the meat when they cook it. I specifically make a point to do everything in my power to not touch meat in any way. And honestly, any bacteria in the chicken gets cooked away as long as you cook the chicken all the way thru. But it does not take much to spread the bacteria if you are rinsing the chicken off in the sink. It's a good way to breed salmonella.
Airing out the bed is a way to let your sheets breathe. If I didn't live in Houston, TX where it's blazing hot most of the year I would STILL do this to this day.
I graduated high school in 1999, we didn't have home ec. I learned how to cook and be a lady from my grandmother and my mom who are both from the South. Now I teach my 10 year old daughter how to be a lady and how to cook and take care of herself.

HatingOnHomework 98 that's great to hear! I learned most of these home ec skills at home. But unfortunately, not everyone is like us.
HatingOnHomework 98 it is needed. I took it and I think it's more to teach self sufficiency, improve self esteem & was just a fun class.

I mean I fully believe that the a lot of the ideas of the 1950s on homemaking are outdated, but they are acting like home economics isn't a class that is one of the most important you can take. You probably won't ever need to use algebra, but every adult should know how to cook a decently balanced meal, sew a button on, balance a checkbook, create a budget, and do laundry and general house cleaning practices. Home ec. should be required for all students, because society is running short on functioning adults.
I wanted to take home ec, but it was never an offered class until you turned 16, and by that point my schedule was full with my senior classes.
I took home ec, balancing a checkbook, was left for the menfolk.
No need to act like algebra is also not important in order to make the case for home economics. People need to understand that mathematical subject are primarily meant to teach students to think.
That’s pretty much what I was gonna say. Home Ec is cooking and cleaning. How do you fail that?
Chris Wedemann hmm. You are kidding, right?
I understand that the sexism was prevalent in that era, but some of these questions actually teach you good habits. They were already against it before it even started. How can you be against "opening you window" or "making your bed".
Dainty Daisy The quiz asked what you should do first. I would assume you’re want to put on a robe or something to cover up whatever pajamas/lingerie you’re wearing. Also, why on EARTH would opening your window be an option for the first thing you do when you wake up?
My windows open at night so that option makes no sense for me... Also many of these questions like how often you shud wash ur hair etc really depend from person to person. So the quiz itself wasn't great although I do agree that all HUMANS (irrespective of whether they are men or women) should know basic life skills, just for their own good.
@@impish_snake3526 Because you want to see the sunlight and smell the fresh air. It's common sense and the first thing I do. Then I make my bed and do everything else.
I always wanted to take Home Ec because it looked so fun on TV, but none of my school ever offered the class...
cedeelbe yes, they took it out in a lot of schools
They removed it from my town's middle school about 5 years ago, but it's still in the high school.
Well. Its at my school, and its not that useful or fun.

Actually, opening a window and airing the underside of your quilt and your sheets kills and removes bacteria in the room whilst preventing build ups of various chemicals and gasses that are emitted from various fabrics. Ventilation is a hugely overlooked part of life, but the studies show it's really good for health, especially in modern homes which tend to be more 'sealed'.
The Gothic Two-Step Thank you !
Yep I got everything you said...........😂😂😂😂
As an actual student nurse, air does not kill bacteria. If it did, bacteria would only exist in water and washing your hands would be irrelevant. Fresh air is great for your lungs, but if you live in a gross smoggy city opening the window will make the air quality worse.
The Gothic Two-Step Thank you!! Exactly what I was thinking!
Sources?
Yo, that egg washing rule is actually a good idea. You actually get salmonella from the OUTSIDE of the egg, when the bacteria on the shell comes into contact with the inside, as you break it. (so if you don't want to get salmonella from raw cookie dough: wash that egg, honey!) #themoreyouknow
No no NOOOO! WASHING the egg pushes the bacteria through the pores of the shell! You want to WIPE the egg, not wash it.
Source- The dude I buy my eggs from, who's been raising chickens for 40+ years.
Egg , chicken, fish, steak, we wash them all at home 😂😂
In addition , we have to wash the rice tens of times 🙃
SAME!!! i was proper confused on that question...like aren't you supposed to wash them all?? lol
Gypsily Rosely No because when you wash the chicken and the meat you'll spread the bacteria. The bacteria will die anyways when you cook the chicken or meat.
I get that, but that's just a part of my preparation...cutting off fatty or unwanted parts etc. IMO washing the meats before cooking it is totally fine if like always anything the raw meat touches gets bleached and thoroughly cleaned.
I
Spread the bacteria where?
Gypsily Rosely I have never heard of washing meat like that, none of my immediate or extended family do it, we didn't do it in home ec in school and none of my friends do it, maybe it's a culture thing? I live in Ireland
Idk but not being able to like cook or clean isn't "quirky" it's something to be looked down on. How are you a grown adult but don't even know how to feed yourself or wash your clothes? Like to not be able use an oven isn't something cute lmao it's a lack of self sufficiency
I was thinking the samething.
mandy soto they're a grown adult because of age 😂 but knowing how to do basic things is stil important
mandy soto none of them said it was quirky
mandy soto I don't know about LA but in New York a lot of people don't cook a lot because cooking for one person is about the same price if not more expensive then just ordering takeout and since you're in the city everything is conveniently located
Laury Rodriguez Born and raised in New York lmao. Most people I know have a basic knowledge of using a kitchen.
I think that cooking is a basic thing most humans should be able to do but I don't think a specific gender should HAVE to clean and sew if they'd rather not. If they would like to and aren't forced to then it's absolutely fine to be a "housewife".
or husband ^^
my mother sent my brother out into the world, knowing how to wash a load of clothes, and how to fix a box of mac &cheese. open a can of soup, as well as make a grilled cheese sandwich, they may not have eaten like kings, but they never starved to death...
why are you proud you don't know how yo do laundry? like ... that's gross.

Their are certain basic things everyone should know how to do and that was one of them.
Kaitlyn not in my house we dont have a washing machine everything is hand washed.
Yeah im a man and i know how to do laundry thats stupid...
I hand wash everything, it's convinent that way
I hand wash too not only a wash machine is expensive they increase your eletric bill and consume water even if the new ones has water consumption reduced...
They make it seem like being a girl and cooking and sewing is bad like its helpful to know all that stuff?
SharlieGrl of course it's helpful but it's not like you would die if you didn't know these things
Yellow House trust me if you didnt know how to prepare food you would die.
hurt animal abusers paws no ? 😂 you could easily survive off of fast food,delivery services, premade food and friends that can cook
Yellow House if you didnt know how to clean up after yourself you would trip over all the rubble on the floor and not be able to go to your car to get fastfood, if you couldnt clean up after yourself(BASIC housework) you would lose your phone and wouldnt be able to call a delivery service or friends. Like i said, how would you be able to make it to your car when you trip over all the mess you didnt clean up and break both your legs so you wont be able to go to the car to drive to the store to buy premade food.
hurt animal abusers paws that's really pathetic. They said they aren't so good at housework that doesn't mean they're messis who don't own a trashcan 😂😂😂😂

Hey buzzfeed: you can be a feminist AND enjoy domestic tasks such as housekeeping and cooking. I don't get why people these days like to brag or joke about being lazy!

They never actually said you shouldn't enjoy domestic tasks.
Each of the women ended up talking about what they're bad at instead of what they're good at. Nothing universal across the board.
They never said people shouldn't enjoy domestic tasks. They have videos where the ladies make dresses, for cripes sake.

STALE AIR HAHA
Airing out your covers/sheets is actually not a bad idea. During sleep, the body's heat and moisture creates ideal growing and living conditions for all the microscopic things you don't want populating your sheets. If you immediately make your bed after standing up, i.e. cover the bed neatly with your covers/sheets, you're just prolonging the period of ideal conditions for the house dust mite, for example. So, leave everything in a messy bundle on the edge of the bed for a bit, with an open window. Then after half an hour you can make the bed.
exactly. i was actually getting a little mad when they started saying "they don't know anything about beds or sheets" lmao they should educate themselves on that before they talk

BTW the modern term for "home economics" is Human Science. The term home economics is quite offensive to human science/ family and consumer science majors like me, because it is such an outdated term. I didn't pay for 4 years of college and get a Human Science degree just to be a house wife, I did it so I can prepare teenagers for adulthood.
they took the class so they can prepare teenagers for adulthood, aka, teach them how to care for themselves.

eggs come pre-washed in the US now, but the rule still applies to most countries. this decreases the risk of infection because it removes bacteria from the shell of the egg which can get in your food when you crack it. the downside to pre-washed eggs is that the process removes protective layers from the shell, making the egg go rotten faster if not refrigerated.

Taking care of a home/managing your life/taking care of yourself and belongings isn't something anyone can say "that's not my thing" about...that's a human, adult thing. I wish I would have taken it in school because I might have learned how to budget, balance my check book, remove stains, cook/handle food sanitarily and such much sooner in life. I think everyone should know these things.
People don't know they have to air out their beds and get fresh air into their bedrooms?
"I don't think you wash chicken... do you?" 😂😅
Why is airing out your house and your bed such a strange concept for them. It's good to have fresh air in your home. I can't imagine having my house closed up all the time.
When I lived in the hot humid south, I would fold my sheets back to air, otherwise they would be damp and clammy in the evening.
My mom always turned down the bed covers for the morning and after breakfast go make them. She used that expression "airing them out". It had to do with body odor methinks since hairwashing was maximum once a week, as were baths.
Kristen’s hair looks fabulous!!!! So luscious and shiny!!!
You wash eggs with hot water so you don't get salmonella.
Layla Abdush-Shaheed you cook eggs so you don't get salmonella. The whole washing eggs question probably came from when they had chickens at home that produced all of their eggs.
Sydney Cousins some people eat raw eggs. They wash them. Samonella comes from chicken poop. When you break an egg that's the chance for you to come into contact with salmonella. They don't really clean eggs before you get them, because of the expectation that you will be cooking them.
Layla Abdush-Shaheed just let Mother naturen claim these feminist lives plz we need evolution
It not just poop you have to wash off of unprocessed eggs. The eggs are encased in a vaginal lining, this makes the shells less porous and helps them keep longer.
Layla Abdush-Shaheed that's what cooking eggs is for... water isn't gonna do anything

The deal is that women have to learn how to cook and sew, because they will need a man to take care of them, along with boys learning shop, so they can possibly learn to pump gas. My mom taught me how to cook. there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to stay home, and raise the next generation of citizens, It's just should not be the only option for women.
i'm a guy with teaching experience and i'd have loved to have been a home ec. teacher.
Inge I am proud of you I wish you a good day
Hmm. I wonder if the men who do and enjoy taking care of themselves by cooking their own food and cleaning their own homes/stuff have secret or undiscovered vaginas.

Salmonella in eggs is generally only on the outside shell, so if you wash your eggs you greatly reduce your risk, still recommended today 👍

“There was a class. I think I learned things?”
*me whenever someone asks what I did at school*
So i had basic home economics in 8th grade, learning how to cook and sew... i was already learning that at home. Then... i think it was either my sophomore or junior year in high school, i took a class called "Life After High School". It was more geared towards real adult responsibilities; how to present yourself in job interviews, planning meals with a budget, how to handle your finances, how to sew. So it was partially like home economics, but an updated version. Like i said, i was already learning all of these things at home, and my teacher was always impressed with the seriousness i did things. I mean... I'm the only one who brought my own thimble to the sewing portion of the class😂. I miss that class😊
Why didn't they take a Home Economics test from 2016?
BluJuiice they have all been defunded.
EbyKat Ireland still has Home Economics as an optional subject. It's not that hard to find an examination from recently.
bc home ex tests now are much different since the class is centered on different things (so this gives insight as to how people back in the day would've seen stuff)
Fyrick24 no no young women find it offense for the kitchen to be seen as the only place for them. Men can cook to it's not hard sweetie
Wait, they always told me to open my window in the morning, why is it strange? Like, you need fresh and clean air when you wake up, because it's good for your body, isn't it obvious? And i didn't take home ec (i'm italian)
Well Kristen. The reason it is a democracy is cause kids are important too and need to have responsibilities
Kristen and Devin 😂😂 they're responses got me so much
The face in the thumbnail is priceless. Meme-worthy even.
Why is everyone reacting so rudely towards these girls not knowing how to do some chores? Why didn't all of you'll react when boys in previous so many videos commented about how they can't cook or carry out some basic chores? Why is normal if guys say that but oh so wrong if a girl says that?
And also, Kristen even said that she's the person you call to ask how to change your tire and not for something home chore related. That would've been a totally normal thing if a guy had said that.
I think ppl are so negative because they are reacting to these women being so negative toward something that really wasn't negative to begin with.
If you don't clean your house that is gross anyone can clean and anyone can change a tire. Just because you don't like doing it doesn't mean you are incapable of doing it.
Ok for the one who says she never does laundry and acts all proud of that fact.
I am all for women being able to change tires but for gods sake, learn to do laundry too. They are not mutually exclusive. This goes for men, women girls and boys and every gender identity in between. Every human who wears clothes should be able to wash those clothes.
The same goes with just some simple basic cooking- if you are a human that eats food (and that one girl clearly does!), learn how to cook something.
ALL GENDERS need to learn those skills to become self sufficient adults. It's not edgy or progressive or liberated to not know how to cook at all or how to do your own laundry. It's just lazy and childish to expect there will always be someone to do that for you.
Just because those were traditionally "women's work" doesn't mean women should avoid them now. It's all the more reason for ALL people to learn them.
honestly tho this pissed me off because most of the questions they features were just common sense and not sexist at all, but they were trying to prove a point so bad they ended up pretending to be proud that they didn't know not washing an egg can give you salmonella and how to do laundry. Like on god, you don't have to be the reverse of a house wife just to prove a point.
How could you get salmonella from a not washed egg? Do you eat your egg without heating it up in a way?
bekki_31 Salmonella it's actually on the outside of the egg, you need to wash them specially if you get really fresh eggs sometimes they even have poop on the shell, so there is a chance of contaminig (is that a Word?) your meal if the manufacturer didnt wash the eggs properly.
Sorry for the poor phrasing
I think they were more confused there because people wash chicken as well.
I remember taking Home Ec in 1984. She taught us how to cook several different things and we had to learn the proper placement of the plates, cups, silverware and napkins and there was a test on this. lol I made a homemade cheese cake and homemade chocolate cake in that class. It was a great class.
"I think we learned things." 10 out of 10, Kristin. 👏👏

I love how the overture to the marriage of figaro is always used when you know something isn't going to go well.
Devin should get extra points because at least she knows how to keep a clean bathroom. We remember that one episode with the bath-bombs. Also, this was the 1950s.... a time when many families still lived on farms. You washed eggs for a simple reason. Because they came out of chickens from the ones owned by the family. They were dirty, and needed to be washed. Also, egg shells back then were thicker than today. The whole processing plant style of producing eggs has made the shells quite a bit thinner. Mainly because raw eggs are polished to look better to consumers at the store. When you do that, the shells get thinner.

ella elise clarification please
The question about opening the window as the first thing to do in the morning seems to based on the fact that very few homes had central air conditioning in 1954 & windows were still the main way the homes were ventillated. As for washing eggs before use, that would imply eggs were still not washed off in the processing plants, like they are nowadays in the U.S.--that's still true in much of Europe, which is why eggs there are still sold in markets at room temperature. It's the washing off off of the outer coating that makes it necessary to refrigerate them

1. It is stuffy without central air conditioning and heating.
2. Airing the bed sheets allows the sweat to evaporate before making the bed, keeping the sheets fresher.
3. Fresh eggs had a membrane from being laid that prevented the eggs from spoiling so you only washed them before using them.
Imagine life without the internet-there were reasons to do some of these things that no longer exist.
OMG, I Laughed so... hard!!!
😂😂😂😂 I didn't take Home Economics, I took Science classes.
It’s so disappointing that some schools don’t have Home Ec as a class anymore. People these days are so obsessed with technology, and kids won’t know how to make a simple meal, or do the laundry. They need to learn so many things that they will use later in life, such as writing a check. Most kids don’t know anything with general stuff like that.

Oh god I hope not. If you wash chicken you are spreading bacteria all over your kitchen. Meat does not need to be washed. Just bake or cook it and it's safe to eat.
Not just foreign people, a lot of people in the states do too. But quite a few also don't because if you're gonna cook it, you're gonna be killing all the bacteria anyways.
Cheeziswin so just because they live in the States means they’re not foreign
EikippieJ This argument is ridiculous. Cutting, marinading and otherwise preparing your chicken spreads just as many germs. The real issue is people who don’t know how to clean a kitchen.
the opening window thing in the morning makes sense in old buildings - even as a single person in a room with a 3m ceiling and about 10-15m² it gets really stuffy over the seven hours I sleep, and the air is stale and thick, so opening the window and airing out the whole room makes sense- we live in a pretty old building, old enough to count as historic anyway -by german standards lol- and there is absolutely ZERO air conditioning! If you don't regularely air out rooms, it becomes IMPOSSIBLE to breathe well in there; our kitchen window is almost permanently open at this point cause all the smells WILL get stuck for weeks if we don't leave it open, no kidding. Plus, I gotta agree with a lot of the people here - while I'm not really GOOD at cleaning/cooking, I still learned how to sew in school extra curricular; make a decent meal, clean out most common stains and do laundry etc from my mom, who was a house-wife for a while after she lost her job - but my dad builts furniture so HE taught me how to put a decent nail in a wall, fix shelves to walls, repair and assemble furniture, various things about how cars work (even if I don't even have one lol), how to properly do dishes by hand - I like being single, and I have no problem asking for help if I do need it, but like? Wouldn't it be annoying to not be able to perform basic tasks? I guess this is a big case of comedy and that stupid thing we do where you downplay your skills massively to not appear arrogant, haven't watched the whole video yet though...
Kristen says "there was a class. I was in a kitchen... I think we learned things" 😆
Uh, why are they surprised that the covers need to air out? We all have mites that live on our skin, you should NEVER make the bed right away when warm! If you do, you're just making it easier for them to reproduce faster :s This is something everyone should know!! Especially since allergies is such a big problem nowadays.
"When you make your bed in the mornings, you’re trapping millions of dust mites in your bed, protecting them from drying out and dying in the bright daylight and giving them a safe place to eat, poop, and breed. These little guys love being tucked in every morning because it keeps them safe from the sun and alive to continue their disgusting little life cycles the next night."
So yeah. Gross.
I'm just so weirded out that they don't open the window when they get up... Yeah, like, sheets need to air... Really, it makes a difference...
Your supposed to wash any meat before you cook it 💀💀
dont wash chicken though! spreads germs
I don't see why, if you're gonna cook it properly? Rinsing chicken would just spread possible campylobacter all over my kitchen sink tbh
When you wash chicken you spread bacteria from the chicken onto your hands and the kitchen which can lead to salmonella. When you cook chicken the bacteria gets eradicated anyway so there is no point
Right? You wash the chicken, wash your hands, wash your sink out. Ta-daaaa. You’re touching the chicken anyways so you’re getting germs on your hands so why tf not wash it?
Not everyone touches the meat when they cook it. I specifically make a point to do everything in my power to not touch meat in any way. And honestly, any bacteria in the chicken gets cooked away as long as you cook the chicken all the way thru. But it does not take much to spread the bacteria if you are rinsing the chicken off in the sink. It's a good way to breed salmonella.
Airing out the bed is a way to let your sheets breathe. If I didn't live in Houston, TX where it's blazing hot most of the year I would STILL do this to this day.
I graduated high school in 1999, we didn't have home ec. I learned how to cook and be a lady from my grandmother and my mom who are both from the South. Now I teach my 10 year old daughter how to be a lady and how to cook and take care of herself.
