Yesterday for the 1st time since moving to the States I went to a neighborhood barbecue, mostly full of typical White high middle class American families.*
It was... weird.
It was highly gender coded, wives on one side doing one thing, husbands the other doing another, barely mixing.
Like they would naturally segregate?
If that's what's normal I think it explains a lot about American politics.
*My husband never liked those. Now I know why.
