@LifeTimeCooking @sullybiker I’m not getting “tea drinking is gendered” from that thread, but also you/it seem(s) to be conflating “tea drinking” (pretty universal in the UK), a mid-morning tea break (often with a biscuit or other small snack, today largely only enjoyed by tradesmen) and afternoon tea (largely obsolete except on special occasions, both currently and historically mostly female-focussed).

@Flick @LifeTimeCooking @sullybiker the mismatch seems to come from the idea that "tea drinking" would have a recipe category.

it's a hot beverage. a biscuit, or other small snack, is usually going to be a mass market packaged item, not something homemade. It's no more a recipe category than whatever food item people buy with their coffee.

@FeartnTired @LifeTimeCooking @sullybiker I took it as “afternoon tea” having a recipe category: sandwiches, little cakes, etc.

(Or possibly even “high tea”: cheese on toast, pies, etc.)
