Government guidelines give tips on how to avoid putting on weight and how to prepare food for men who are ‘unaccustomed to cooking’
… As they near their due date, women should clear their fridge of items that are about to go off and prepare three to four meals, such as curry and soup, that their husbands, “who are unaccustomed to cooking,” can simply heat up while they are fending for themselves.
They must also make sure to leave enough changes of clothes for three days to a week for their husband and children, it said, adding: “And buy a hairband so that you don’t look dishevelled after having the baby.”
The guidelines were published online by the city government’s pregnancy and childbirth information centre, which opened in 2019, according to the Korea Herald. The content was overseen by the Korean Society of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the newspaper added.
The guidelines were recently removed in response to online criticism, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said. “Do they still think married women are their husbands’ housekeepers?” one social media user asked, according to Yonhap.
Another said: “It’s hard to even breathe towards the end of a pregnancy, and they’re expecting us to prepare underwear and food for our husbands?!”
The city government said it had copied the advice from a website run by the health ministry, which had removed it before the recent furore. …
Watching rioters jump through shattered windows at the U.S. Capitol reminded photographer Kevin Dietsch of a zombie movie. …
… Walking down a hallway that leads to the Senate, Dietsch wondered why the officer said it was so dangerous. “We didn’t just believe her,” he says.
Then, on the first floor, he heard banging on the windows — a police officer in front of him started rushing toward the window. “Right in front of me, a brick or rock went flying through the window,” he says. “Next thing I knew, the whole window came smashing through.”
At that moment, the officer reached for his belt. “I thought he was grabbing his gun — I thought he was going to open and start firing,” says Dietsch, who ran closer to the officer and took a photo as the first protestor jumped through the window. From about six feet away, the officer sprayed the rioter in the face with mace or pepper spray.
The second rioter jumped through, touched the ground, and paused with his arms out.
“He looked like a villain or superhero busting through a wall,” Dietsch recalls. He watched as dozens of rioters followed.
“It was like something out of a zombie movie. Where hordes of these rioters just kept coming and coming. It seems like one after another…. they slowly started coming toward us,” he remembers. …
He’s sprayed that stream in such a way that it will keep hitting the seditionist asshole in the face as his downward trajectory continues. He’s also already looking in a different direction. WOW.
