If you have said anything like this, this is the episode for you.  Comments like this are sexist and not even true.  Both genders like appreciation, and words of affirmation is a gender-neutral love language.  If you don't want your husband to say sexist stuff like, "Women are irrational," then don't make sweeping insulting comments about men!  Not to mention that women want a cookie for physical intimacy or whatever other aspect of a partnership that they personally don't prioritize doing in exactly the same proportion as men want a cookie for doing chores.  And when it goes beyond appreciation, people of BOTH genders act like martyrs and should work on it!
