Speaking as a straight cis male who’s on the verge of asexuality, it’s been incredibly difficult and oftentimes alienating having discussions of sexuality and sexual insecurities with my other cis male friends because a lot of the discussion tends to veer into vulgarity or jesting. Then there’s the conversations you have with your partners and sometimes some of those partners implying that you’re not ‘man enough’, etc.
I understand that a lot of this is due to toxic masculinity but I’ve gotta say, it’s been pretty tough.
Yeah sure, I don’t care. But the Italians in the other room might lose their shit if they find out the Germans ruined their casserole with unholy German egg noodles.
Interesting. Mac and cheese, it seems, evolved from the pasta and cheese casserole dishes of Italy and England popular around the 14th and 15th century. While kasspatzen seems to have originated from around the areas of southern Germany with no mention of it as a dish until about the 1700’s.
