Do you think a woman is lazy if she doesn't cook for her man everyday?

Question

Sonorous · Accepted Answer

I don't like entertaining that word. I think it has issues with oversimplification which isn't very fair. Sure, some people do better when they try to avoid the stigma associated with the word. So it can have "benefit" in a way. But I still don't think it's a very constructive word to use.

I prefer a more empathetic approach. One that keeps this in mind:

There could be underlying reasons behind a lack of interest or motivation, such as burnout, mental health issues, overwhelming responsibilities, a mismatch between values and the assigned tasks, a lack of support or resources, fear of failure or perfectionism, lack of autonomy or control, physical health issues, disengagement or demotivation, and other personal life issues.

She doesn’t have to cook everyday. I like to cook myself. I can understand your situation. Nothing wrong w that. Now if you weren’t pregnant, working part-time while he was working 40 hours a week or more then I’d think you need to do a little more around the house.

No, of course not. She can never cook and still be a formidable partner. Food and shelter are very low on the Maslow pyramid.

Do you think a woman is lazy if she doesn't cook for her man everyday?

I cook from a place of imparting love and belonging, creating intimacy etc. If cooking and cleaning means more meaningful values on this scale (I'm not a slave to it. It is merely a reference point) will be neglected, I will not prioritize them.

And honestly, men don't care about women's cooking that much. Men can cook, a lot of times better than women, if they need to.

And anyway, in my experience a man who places his values on a woman based in her cooking is usually an oaf who sees the wife as vacuum cleaner and sees outside women as where he enjoys himself. They are soul-killing individuals

Good gods no. He's a big boy and can cook for himself. Unless cooking is part of some sort of chore agreement you guys have then it absolutely should not be an expectation (and even if it is, I'd say pregnancy is a good excuse to start making exceptions in terms of work/chore expectations.)

Pinay_ako · Answer

No. Why can’t  HE  cook too for her? Both should contribute to the household. Both gots careers and lives.

BoopBoopBeep · Answer

If she's only working part time or not working at all, she ought to be pulling her weight around the house, and that's cooking at least 5 nights a week.

You're eating out. She's cooking. He's cooking. Those are the options. If she was single she'd be cooking for herself, so thinking she doesn't have to cook anymore is immature and entitled.

DrKrieger · Answer

I believe a marriage or relationship is 50/50. If I'm working to support the marriage then she should be providing some equal benefit to the relationship or there is no point in being together.

If she's also working to support the union, then cooking shouldn't be expected. However, if she's just a stay at home girlfriend with no kids then I'd say cooking is the bare minimum effort she could put into the relationship.

Miss_Pretty · Answer

A man shouldn't expect a woman to cook for him everyday, especially if she too has a job and obligations. If she is home and he is working to provide, it would be great if she did her part in keeping the house clean aswell as cooking. Each couple is different and everyone has different expectations.

Josephiiina · Answer

I prefer doing the cooking to be honest. I have my system in the kitchen and find it fun. I dont mind making breakfast or pack lunch either, if I feel appreciated and loved.

That does however, not mean that getting a meal once in a while myself isn't nice and romantic :)

Simslover92 · Answer

Nope. I think it should be where we take turns cooking. My boyfriend says he can really cook so I'm looking forward to both of us cooking for each other. We even may cook together if we can focus on the cooking that is lol

desidoll · Answer

While I love cooking for myself and my man, I don’t think he should expect me to do it all the time. Sometimes he can prepare his own food if he wants to eat something else or bored with my cooking.

Anemone978 · Answer

Luckily when I was pregnant my husband was a domino's delivery driver so I was able to chill at that time because I used to sneak and go with him and we would order food or just go somewhere cheap for food lol

Somebodysomeone · Answer

Not necessarily just depends on what else she's not doing. If she works and contributes otherwise then no. Both partners can take turns cooking. If she doesn't work and the house is a mess all the time then thats a clear problem.

LazerBean · Answer

Does she work? How are her household responsibilities compared to his? If all he does is work and she does everything else in addition to working, then he's the lazy one.

Anonymous · Answer

Nope. Making me something to eat is gravy. I appreciate anything that she is WILLING to make me. It's NEVER expected. I wouldn't want her doing something she doesn't want to do, doesn't feel up to doing or has the time for. I'm a big boy, I can feed myself. I'm pretty low maintenence.

PessicaJeter · Answer

Honestly, my boyfriend is a better cook than I am, so he cooks meals for us more than half the time.

Annie_LevelUP_ADC · Answer

If he is working a lot more. And she mostly available at home, I think it's fair to have her cook. We both work from nine to five. Let's come home and cook together and talk about our day?

richardcory · Answer

What matters is that chores and work are roughly evenly divided. No specific rules about what those chores are

Boomchakalaca · Answer

No bc not everyone can cook every single day. There are rest periods

Nick1976G · Answer

Not at all. I like to cook for my woman and don't mind if she doesn't cook. I know she can cook, but she prefers to either not do it at all or help me. I have no problem with her not being in the kitchen every day.

Billlewis · Answer

No, because I always do all the household chores and laundry, cooking and grocery shopping for the woman I'm serving.

inhua · Answer

does she expect him to confront the home intruder all the time when the home intruder breaks in?

safricanluke · Answer

No, a person is only lazy in a relationship if they don't put in an effort. Gender roles are bullshit anyway, no one should feel like they have to conform to old and outdated stereotypes.

Rangers · Answer

If she's working, no, and it doesn't have to be every day But if she never does and I'm working so much to support us both, that's a huge negative there

Meropatrick · Answer

Do people need to eat everyday. I dont and its Healthy. I do fasting 3 times a week. And i eat Some days just salads. Only 2 days a week i eat cooked food

msc545 · Answer

The thing here is - most women cannot cook, or refuse to cook, and expect that their vagina and the little money they make (which they regard as theirs to spend) should be sufficient. I will never argue with a woman about this shit again.

shades777 · Answer

Everyday is extreme but definitely appreciated its kind of like saying you want sex every day, if you get 4/7 days your winning in life, it wouldn't kill a man to cook for 2 days especially if he's a good cook

KatherineJ · Answer

Of course not! I don’t cook for him every day. I mean he is a grown adult, so he knows how to feed himself.

Minahh · Answer

Cooking for man? More like him cooking for me. We cooking together. Or we order. I ain't nobody's maid.

RealLifeHarleyQuinn · Answer

No! Absolutely not! I would never think that about her, also I wouldn't pressure her about cooking for me. If anything, I WILL ALWAYS cook for her! Because she is what would be the most important thing in my life.

I don't let women cook for me. They've all been awful at it. I'd rather she did the dishes, unless she's my guest of course.

No, of course not! I cook for my partner everyday, it is very rarely he ever cooks. His excuse is that he is a chef and he cooks all day 😂

Twalli · Answer

My girlfriend never cooks for me, I mostly cook for her. That's just how our relationship works.

Not if she works too. A woman should definitely know how to cook well, but she shouldn't have to do all the cooking.
