Women's Work

Yesterday, Theo and I had this conversation in the car:
Theo: Mommy, are you a girl?
Me: Yes, I am.
Theo: So do you vacuum?
Me (after briefly recoiling at the fact that my son apparently sees vacuuming as going hand in hand with being a "girl"): Yes. But so does Daddy. Boys and men can vacuum too, you know.
Oh dear. I must nip in the bud this notion of "women's work!"
