domestication comes from the idea of domestic wife...one who stays at home, cooks, cleans, etc...which imo is kinda funny to have to train a slave to do those things. I learned those things in grade school along with manners and etiquette.

No one ever had to take home-economics?

I'm 26...grew up in the Chicago subrbs, went to public grade school and private high school.

In 6th grade I took one semester of home ec and one semester of wood shop. I made a mini pillow on a sewing machine, Duncan Hines brownies, and our final exam was a full dinner...meat, vegetables, powdered lemonade and add-water-desserts.

45 minutes a day, twice a week, isn't a comprehensive education on how to keep a home. I'm guessing it's a generational thing. I'm learning to cook, from cookbooks, for my FH, but I can't iron a shirt or make a bed the way hotels do. I'd love to take a real cooking class, sewing class, housekeeping class, or all-in-one, but it's not standard education.

Girls my age are taught to contribute to the bank balance, not to the home.
