Assume for the next 3 sentences that this single study is accurate, replicable and does show what it claims to.
So in the patriarchy the guys finished the task 35% faster. In the Matriarchy were the scores relatively equal to the men in the patriarchy, or the women?
Meaning does patriarchy produce a benefit for the men or does it somehow prevent the women from performing as well?
No.
Those are not called “knives”, those are called “saws”.
We (family) got some knives at marriage, and just sort of puttered along. Then I bought her some “good” knives, which arrived fairly sharp.
Oh. My. Sourdough bread in SLICES instead of ragged hunks.
Then we used them for a couple years, and I realized that since these were low-end “chef quality” knives (I’m not a chef. I don’t much care about cooking, and I don’t talk shop with real chefs, so that may not be an accurate statement, but the reviews I read indicated that these were as good as MUCH more expensive knives except in maybe the quality of the handle), that maybe we should get them sharpened, so I found a place in STL that had a knife sharpening service for local restaurants and went there.
They refused to even consider sharpening our steak knives. The guy called them “cheap junk”. So we bought some of of the same brand as our other knives (basically the cheapest he had in stock). (Victorinox “Fibrox”)
Oh. My. Steak is SO much easier to deal with now. Bread (on the rare occasions we have it ) cuts cleanly. Tomatoes and oranges can can be sliced as thin as you want. Limes for your gin/vodka? Clean cuts.
Knives are tools. Tools need maintenance or replacement.
