According to this particular femi-Nazi, HRH is a typically lazy, insensitive useless sexist male!
Prince William and Male Privilege

So, let's recap. He admits, with a blinding lack of introspection, that, once he was making headway with Middleton, he quit trying to cook, forcing her to choose between a kitchen fire and taking over dinner prep. Kinda like a bad, very bad sitcom: The Prince and the Proscuitto. Even if he's attempting self-deprecation here, it's still sexist and insulting.
Here's why: He bothered to master searching for and rescuing Brit GI's in extremis, under enemy fire, but shepherd's pie or bubble and squeak? Too hard, just too damn hard without lives hanging in the balance (i.e. public recognition). Something tells me he didn't get all "lazy" and burn, overspill, or catch anything on fire on his harrowing job. On the other hand, in Penis World, when women get home from work (Middleton is middle class and, like, worked), or want to collapse on the couch after 12 hours of child care, "spending loads of time cooking" is no problem at all. Likely because no one will ride to the "search and rescue" if they burn, overspill ... you get my drift. But they will look down on women who punt and serve take-out. left overs, or microwave fare too often.

Can't see the problem myself! (apart from the "rescuing Brit Gis under enemy fire" bit)
