Citing her relationship as an example, Gisela noted that while her boyfriend takes care of all their expenses, she does not contribute in any traditional domestic capacity.

"I'm not in the typical relationship that most of you are in. I feel like my partner and I understand each other to some extent regarding gender roles. We actually don't have gender roles... He's decided to pay for everything, and I don't cook for him. I don't even cook for myself and he's okay with that," she said.

Gisela explained her upbringing, stating that her mum, younger brother, and house help often did everything at home while she did nothing.

Therefore, she felt it was okay for her boyfriend to take up all the responsibilities if he wanted to.
