Do women actually have feminine interests or is it largely just a stereotype?

The obvious ones like cooking, fashion, spending time with babies and kids, etc. Do most women actually like that stuff?

Real

Stereotype

I’ve met women who love stereotypically “feminine” things and I’ve met women who hate them. It depends on the woman as an individual. Personally, I hate cooking and I’ve never enjoyed cleaning, I only do those 2 things out of necessity. I also don’t have much of a maternal instinct, I can’t stand being around kids most of the time. Though that’s something that would change if I had my own children, since maternal feelings are instinctual.

yeah i love that stuff. men are cruel, women turn to women hood, it’s like reverting back to our ancestors to feel comfort in a crazy world. i love cleaning i love children and i love shopping. it has become stereotypical to reject these norms. i think some things like the children aspect is an instinct i was born with. cleaning helps makes me feel productive and i like things being clean, and shopping makes is how i get clothes to have dress up parties and feel fabulous.
