It's really scary how often girls are just expected to take care of their male family members, even the older one's who should know how to take care of themselves. How do you not feel pathetic having a teenage girl clean after you?
This isn't just a Korean problem either, there are tons of stories from people of all backgrounds where this sort of patriarchal standard is pushed onto girls/women. Like in cases of big family dinners being thrown, all the men sit around at in the living room chatting it up, while the women and girls are sent to the kitchen to cook and clean.... it's all just sad. I wish for better
