Jigen’s line in P1E02 about how women should be in the kitchen or whatever is among the blandest and least memorable misogynistic statements of all time, but when viewed in hindsight the irony of it is overwhelming. Retroactively hilarious. Imagine if Part 6 Fujiko showed up at Part 6 Jigen’s place and just assumed she could naturally do the cooking. Better than him. In his own kitchen. He would be SO mad. Profoundly offended. Just absolutely seething. COOKING and MARKSMANSHIP are COMPLEX SKILLS which are CAREFULLY HONED through YEARS OF PRACTICE and without them I have NO SENSE OF SELF WORTH.
