Something that mostly females are misinformed on, is that they fear natural gas, they confuse it with propane, that drives some to want electric.
I don’t believe this is a sex thing.
There have been plenty of times, especially with teenagers, when someone doesn’t shut off the burner completely. That would make mothers AND fathers think twice about gas.
The same holds true with elderly moms and dads. That would make daughters AND sons think twice about gas.
Indeed, taking your argument further, women should fear electric stoves since the glass remains a hazard well after the power’s been killed. Little Johnny and Mary could melt their fingers.
