Mike and the dinner comment

On tonight's new episode, Mike had every right to say what he said about not having a dinner ready.
I am a woman and I agree. And not because I believe in gender roles.
I understand Molly is writing a novel, but she is the one at home all day. And if I am not mistaken, she has no other job that takes her out of the house.
She is the one at home, so she could have some dinner ready.
Not to mention Mike has a draining and dangerous job.
I mean how hard is it to at least put on a pot of canned soup and make a sandwich.

Yes, she should have cooked. In my home, I'm the only one with a day job while my wife is home with the kids. She still tries to make me a meal when I get home, and it's always very appreciated.

Admittedly, when I've had a long day and there's no food, yes I sometimes react the way Mike reacted. But my wife doesn't get all condescending about it. For what it's worth, I can and do cook meals myself (for the whole family) too.
