can anyone with a degree in Gender explain to me why chili is masculine but sushi is feminine

@Lady @wallhackio this is the best pawsible follow-up anybody could have made to his post

@wallhackio was there a particular language that uses it for its grammatical gender or is this just based on vibes?

@wallhackio well then the buzzkill answer is “probably because all asian culture was feminized under orientalism”

@wallhackio @Satsuma practically speaking anglophones associate latine cultures with machismo and masculinity but associate east asian cultures with femininity

@wallhackio this was replying to a different toot but also: nice

@Lady curry is a stew with meat which is masculine but it has aromatic spices which is feminine so it's debatable
