I’ve been watching TransGeneration recently, and it’s basically just a reality TV show that caters to perverse cis curiosity about trans folks.
it has so many fucked up moments, but one of the ones I found amusing was when they took footage of Gabbie the trans woman cutting up hot dogs:
Then just to make sure we didn’t miss the metaphor they zoom in and really focus on her cutting the hot dogs:
just, lmao
That’s the wrong knife for cutting hotdogs.
yeah, a scalpel would have been a better choice
I mean even if she’s not going for the metaphor, the correct choice is a chef’s knife. It’s the correct choice for 90% of jobs in the kitchen and will do fine for the other 10%.
Normally I would agree, but I can’t actually think of why a utility knife is a bad choice for cutting hot dogs - they’re soft and easy to cut, and it’s not as impractical as a paring knife. Mostly I just think it would be easier & safer to guide a chef’s knife with your fingers.
