This is due in part to the fact that misogynist perspectives have been on the rise for a number of years, and the genre has only served to highlight the disturbing dynamics associated with this conception. Perry notes that "this use of black women in the ...

The idea behind deconstructing skills is to break down unusually large concepts into smaller ideas so that they are simplified and seem less intimidating.

In other words, cooking involves smaller skills such as clean up, preparation, shopping, and the actual cooking.
