The mind of the fairer sex is simply too gentle and fragile to handle making decisions regarding the powerful currents and flows of electromagnetism about the household; women who engage in such activities quickly develop hysterical madness, delusional grandiosity, or, worst of all, lesbianism. You take your meals at regular times, correct? I would recommend setting up a system of timers that light up the kitchen prior to, during, and after mealtime, so the nerous burden of decision-making is removed from your fair wife.
