Man Asks Pregnant Girlfriend to ‘Help in the Kitchen’ at Family Gathering

Picture this: a family gathering where women are expected to be in the kitchen, and men are hanging out in the front room. Sounds like a scene from the 1950s, right? Well, not for one couple who recently attended such an event. The 30-year-old man asked his pregnant girlfriend, Laura, a senior doctor, to help out in the kitchen with the other ladies to appease his parents’ traditional views. What could possibly go wrong?
