Do women like it when a man can cook?

Question

Xoxocutekitty · Accepted Answer

Yes and I expect it. If I can run a sucessful career he can know how to run a successful kitchen. I'm looking for a grown man who can feed himself, can appreciate the time and effort that goes into cooking, and not come home day after day late from work or the same time as me and lay on the couch expecting a hot dinner and then have the audacity to complain if it's not to his taste. I don't expect him to cook every night, but I expect that we are able to share the responsibility equally and also agree on what nights we can eat out. I'm not a fan of a guy who "chooses to eat out" everytime it's his night to cook. Really between two people you only need to cook 2x a week each (for dinners) if both people do their share.

Absolutely! My boyfriend cooks for me all the time! Love it. In the past I was the one that cooked all the time, and felt like it was easy for the guy. I cook for him when he is at my house. But most of the time we are at his, and we cook together. It is a great bonding experience too.

Think of it this way:
Me: "Honey, what do you wanna eat?"
Her: "idk whatever"
Me: *brings large bowl of signature real home made mac n cheese made from scratch*
Her: "OH MY GOD THANK YOUUUU!" *hugs n kisses ensue followed by delicious mac n cheese binging*

I learned this a while ago... when a girl says she doesn't know what she wants to eat, she's not being difficult. She REALLY doesn't know... or probably care. She's hungry.
So, if you put food in front of her face, she'll always eat. However, if it is food YOU made yourself, and you KNOW what she likes...
.. ladies, I'll be in the kitchen. Hmu anytime.

Yes, I've learned how to cook from my mum when I was young. I thought women were supposed to cook and do all the homework while men go to work and come to sleep, but when I grew up, I realized that cooking is one of the essentials of life to survive.
I'm not a chef, and I'm not trying to attract attention, but cooking helps me to acclimate and survive under any circumstances.
Yes, there are women who love the man who cooks, but you have to do it for yourself first, then think about the rest (no offense, women).

ChronicThinker · Answer

It makes no difference to me personally as I tend to prefer to be in control of my food.

SaskiaBlueRaySoul · Answer

hi, well after 3 ltr in my lifetime i would seriously love it if any new man someday! could and would cook... i love cooking however this life skill in fact would be very much appreciated by me!! ; ) xx

EpicDweeb · Answer

Would a woman DISLIKE having a man with an extra life skill or two? If nothing else there's no reason for a girl to dislike a guy for being able to cook. At the worst she won't care but there's no reason a girl would dislike it... thus there's no where to go but up from not caring one way or the other...

So basically yeah most girls will probably find it attractive or they won't really care in the first place.

Azzazle · Answer

Trust me. Women love a guy who knows their way around the kitchen. Sous vide, smoker, benzomatic propane torch, searzall, crock pot, rice cooker, etc. I got a lot of cooking gadgets. I been cooking 28 years. I am 30. I started at age 2 cracking eggs with my great grandma. Of course I was a lousy egg cracker so she had to pick out all the shells. Never had any complains on my cooking.

A man should know how to cook and fend for himself.

dantetheexplorer · Answer

As someone's who worked in the restaurant industry as a line-cook in various restaurants, my experience has been yes. But I would say "impressed" rather than "liked" and being good at cooking can only get you so far. Regardless of whether women like it or not, if you're a man and you like to be independent, then you definitely need to know how to cook. Don't learn it just to attract women. Well, actually, everyone needs to know how to cook.

Astoriana · Answer

Yes, in the sense that it shows that he is an adult and not a baby looking to be mothered.

Is it ~*attractive*~? No. It's a necessary life skill. You need to be able to feed yourself in the most basic way.

DementedCutie342 · Answer

It's not necessary but it's definitely a plus. Nothing like having a man fix you a good meal and have you leaving happy and with a full belly.

StarieNight · Answer

Some women do and some women don't! But I most certainly do!!! But I don't just like it, I love it...

Kai02 · Answer

No but we dislike it when a man is so incapable that he can't even feed himself. Cooking is a basic life skill

bubble_tea · Answer

Do you like it when a woman can cook? The answer is the same.

NatashaJ · Answer

Yes, that means to me I am less likely having to treat you as a child then. For some reason nowadays guys want gfs to be their mothers it's ridiculous.

naijagurl · Answer

I definitely do. It’s a great skill to have and I cook too so we could do it together.

VaIiant · Answer

Yes, absolutely. It means, if he’s a potential marriage candidate, that I won’t have to constantly play house every single night.

jss123 · Answer

Interesting question. My ex wife refused to let me cook even for myself. She told me women must cook in Islam. I'm Jewish so it didn't make any sense to me. It was also bizarre as she knew me for 10 years previously as she was first my best friend. I didn't even have a say in what she made for me. It was done as a form of control

1truekhaleesi · Answer

I'd hope so. It's a necessary need for survival and I will not be cooking every meal for them as I am not their mother.

bulletbob555 · Answer

As opposites attract a woman who can't cook definitely is attracted to a man who can. I can cook some very good meals. I can say if you come over I can cook that one that's your favorite it seems to work. if they really need convincing I have to cook my best dishes sometimes

jennifer_bloom · Answer

Yes. Skills are always good and it is a great way to save money since you don't have to dine at restaurants all the time. It also saves stress.

puffynips · Answer

Yes I think it's hott. My dad's a Chef and our mom says that's how they met and how we all learned to cook anywhere camping, hotels and at home.

CubsterShura · Answer

Yes. I think it is one thing that everyone should be able to do regardless of gender. It's a basic thing. There are many household tasks that are considered gender roles but they shouldn't be. Cooking, sewing, replacing the fuse, bookbinding etc.

JuarezTheCurious · Answer

In a typical relationship in between average people, the woman is the one who cooks...

But most professional chefs that I know of actually are men, so... yeah.

I can't speak from personal experience as I'm no woman, just a bisexual guy... but I would love a guy who can cook. ^_^

Amanda269 · Answer

Yes. I think both genders like it when the other can cook.

WeirdCinderella · Answer

Actually, I won't fall in love with a man just cause he knows how to cook. But someone who cooks for you is lovely cause it's a cute attention they have for you and stuffs ❤️

Anonymous · Answer

Hell yes. I'm an okay cook, but it doesn't even matter - the fact that he's a man defying gender norms and taking care of himself well and wants too cook for me is always a bit of a panty soaker for me. Makes me want to things for him too.

BleachLovesMe · Answer

If he can cook well, then it's alright.  A break would be nice.

daisyflower89 · Answer

Yesssssss especially when it's foods I've never tasted before. It shows a lot.

azzntittiz · Answer

Would be nice if he can but I love cooking anyway, so I wouldn't mind controlling the kitchen.

NatureBeauty · Answer

GamingArtist · Answer

if I have the materials in front of me prepare to wine and dined. But I do think a woman that can cook is attractive.

MysteriousDarkness · Answer

Anyone attracted to women like it when they know how to cook and cook well.
Anyone attracted to guys like it when they know how to cook and cook well.
At the least people like someone who can cook semi homemade.

Lavinnykins · Answer

Absolutely... means you can cook together for some date nights!

JellyDonutguy96 · Answer

yeah,  I'm trying to get better at cooking myself

Anonymous · Answer

Adults should do some things for themselves no matter how attractive or unattractive it is. Knowing how to cook is one of those things.

IsmailHaniya · Answer

I think they love it, coz they want to have romance in anywhere kitchen or any other place in the house and because they need help when they're giving birth, so it's very helpful and I even like that too.

vishna · Answer

I do :) I enjoy random surprises of special meals. And I also adore when we cook together :)

andreasderjuengere · Answer

Sorry to counter-act: A man who can cook would not mind much if a woman would want to know that. At least in my surroundings.

Kaneki05 · Answer

I can cook but never do and probably never will cause i am too lazy.

heyyyyy69 · Answer

Probably because women like food, don't make it a habit for everyone though not all women will appreciate it or any nice gestures you do, they will be taken for granted

Anonymous · Answer

I just love it. It's a massive turn on

Anonymous · Answer

Being an awesome cook has landed me more dates than i can count so i would have to say they like it. i know my wife LOVES it.

HereIbe · Answer

Let's just say that my wife decided that our first date was DEFINITELY going to end in some insertion and explosion after she had the meal I cooked for her.

Xarxhal · Answer

Yes, please! It's a pretty necessary skill to have in order to survive and not starve to death. (Except if you eat fast food everyday).
