Josephine Cochrane, she thought outside the sink – and into the dishwasher!
God, and her name was Eve.
The joke “Who created the first dishwasher? God, and her name was Eve” plays on traditional gender roles and religious references. It starts with the question about the creation of the first dishwasher, which could be expected to lead to the name of an inventor or a historical figure. However, the punchline humorously attributes the creation to God and names “Eve,” the biblical first woman according to Judeo-Christian creation narratives. The joke relies on the stereotypical and outdated notion that household chores, like dishwashing, are inherently the responsibility of women. By referring to Eve as the first dishwasher, it combines the religious reference with a play on these traditional gender roles.
