      I would still help them, yes, but at that point the price they pay is getting made fun of, too.

      I’ve lived with three roommates now, all friends first and after. The first is very neat, no issues there. The second is non-binary but raised as a dude and it shows up in being a bit of a mess and lost on a lot of things, and the current is also the same but is cis and straight. At our ages, it’s just not my responsibility to constantly be delicately training men, especially as I, myself, am a privileged straight man who is at least baseline functional.

        Well, that was an info dump I didn’t necessarily need. Anyway, if a friend or family said they were going to publicly shame me for asking a question, I wouldn’t be the cook I am today. Fortunately I was allowed to make mistakes and given opportunities to learn.
