  1. Perhaps it's just my perception, but it seems to me that most of the male
    chefs on FoodTV are expecting an arctic storm any minute. Tyler Florence
    is a good example. Dude, you're under tv lights, you can't be that cold.
    Meanwhile, many of the female chefs are in no sleeves and v cut
    neckline tshirts.

    Just an observation.

    I read the subject line and wondered who [censored] you off so much that you
    want to freeze him.

    The v-neck t-shirts seem to be a trend, here in SoCal, for the female
    reporters(?) on the independent stations to wear. I guess the stations are
    trying to increase the male watchers for the programs. The men on these
    same stations are always dressed in suits....hmmm interesting..

    Does anyone remember Bazooka Joe? Of the chewing gum fame?
    That's what they remind me of, the guys of foodtv. Plus, the women
    all wear the v neck tshirt that is apparently bought from the same
    designer. Don't forget the 3 buttons up the left side of the v.

    Anyway, I thought it was mildly amusing. No big agenda or anything.

    Well, I think Tyler Florence is HOT-HOT-HOT so I
    guess I can understand Nancy's confusion.

    Men are just naturally more reserved. (Thank gawd) <WAG>

    Life should *not* be a journey to the grave with the intention of
    arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body. But rather
    to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body
    thoroughly used up, worn out and screaming, "WHOO HOOOOO, what a ride!"

    Practical dress has never been (IMO) the forte of the females in our society.
    Men tend to dress a little more practically, while women seem more interested
    in style. Just look at the silly ass shoes that some women wear. High heels,
    narrow toes, designed to look good, but not practical for walking. I was out
    with my wife a few weeks ago when she was shopping for new winter boots. She
    could not decide between two pairs. One pair had high heals and a smooth
    sole. The other had a shorter heels and a sole with some tread . For some
    reason it took my pointing out that winter boots with a bit of tread are a
    heck of a lot safer to walk in.

    Uh uh, no. Don't even go there. I'm talking about men under hot studio
    lights
    dressed up to the chin like someone might find out they have a neck.

    I could outrun you in those shoes while carrying a 40 pound box of
    paper. Been there, done that.

    This really wasn't my point ... the women seem to be better dressed for the
    hot lights than the guys do, they often seem to be mopping sweat. Well,
    take
    off the the sweater jacket, already, guys.

    Maybve that's the whole point. They want people to see them
    work up a sweat while cooking... otherwise it isn't
    considered "work".

    Maybe the same reason Filipino fieldworkers wear long sleeves and dressed
    wrapped to the chin in blistering hot weather... protection. Most chef garb
    is designed to prevent harm from hot splatters and spills. Only takes one
    massive spill on your lap to realize why baggy is better, when it comes to
    pants. Occasionally you meet a cook that needs to make a fashion statement.
    LOL probably the ones that tell you they are always getting propositioned?
    No wait, I feel a new thread coming on....

    One would never guess from a tv show that most pro cooks work their ass
    off... nightly. "Hmmmm, what a glamorous career awaits." (LMAO recalling
    some of Sheldon's rather dead-on descriptions of this insane line of work)
