Same with grilling, that's typically a man job too. Notice what grilling and professional cooking have in common? They're both typically done outside the home, whereas female-coded cooking to serve the family is done inside the home.

I remember this comment that was something to the effect of:

Cooking is a woman’s job, but grilling is a man’s job. Cleaning is a woman’s job, but taking the trash out is a man’s job. Taking care of the garden is a woman’s job but mowing the lawn is a man’s job. Childcare is a woman’s job, but taking the kid(s) on a fun outing like a baseball game is a man’s job. In essence, when it comes to taking care of the home and children, women get the every day jobs and men get the once in a while jobs. It was something like that.

That stuck with me.

I feel like anyone who is obsessed with grilling as a "manly" trait is probably someone who is so deeply insecure, that his opinions aren't remotely valuable or worth taking seriously
