It is not a global choice. Every couple makes their own parameters. In my case she does the cooking, but in other cases I know guys that do the cooking. Life is a hell of a lot more than that.
I'm a good-above average cook and I'm 36. I date girls who are between 25-35. If you can't cook a proper meal at 30+ years old you're a joke and clearly live a life of ramen, frozen pizza and basic bitch shit. Not interested.
I think all people should at least know how to do a little cooking. If she doesn't know how to cook, I would happily teach her! I wouldn't mind doing most of the cooking anyway, I quite enjoy cooking.
Can she read? I mean 99% of cooking is reading a god damned recipe
How true.
If she can read she can cook.
False , makes difference to me i would still date her and marry her
whether she can cook or not cook.
It's not a necessity that she should know how to cook but it would be great if she knows how to
If true then there a lot of women, even presently married ones, who should being dying alone. Just not the case.
Depends on the guy, but it is true for me. When I date women I'm looking for a potential wife and I would not marry a woman who can't cook well. It's so sad how that skill has largely disappeared in women these days.
At least make an effort.
My mum always says if you can read and you have a tongue in your mouth you can cook
You don’t even need to be able to read, you just have to be able to listen. The women making a fuss about it all through out the post apparently can’t even do that and someone how think they could manage a relationship with someone without being able to listen to another person.
*somehow
If a woman dislikes the institution of marriage, and doesn't like to live with someone else, she's not good wife material. That applies to men to tbh
She can still learn it. I'd be concerned about a woman (actually, men as well) who does not even WANT to cook.
it's not a big deal if can't...
it's a deal breaker if she doesn't want to learn
False. We can learn together or guy can teach her. There shouldn't be requirements to be in love and spend your life with someone just trust and unconditional love and be each others best friends.
LOL, I could care less since I can cook well. It's great if she can, too, but not necessary.
False because there is more to being a girlfriend/wife then if she can cook.
Well yeah that’s part of it she has to be able to do something. You women (mostly young women brainwashed by the media) literally think putting on makeup makes you wife material. Women nowadays have literally nothing to offer but entitled attitudes and selfies
based on your comment it sounds like you have plenty to offer the world.
@DianaWest Lol he's under 18. Such a little shit lol
lol, i know.
I think you just deceived yourself mate
*described
Don't bully him... he didn't really say any insults. And is entitled to an opinion.
i can cook and i love cooking so if she can't, that's fine by me. she can take other chores xD i hate doing laundry for example :P
Umm i dont know how to cook lol and neither does my mom know how to cook. I'll learn ofcourse I have to , basic life skills
False, but I think everyone needs to know how to cook a few things. I like people who can take care of themselves.
Everyone should have basic cooking skills. but i wouldn't mind if my partner isn't good at it because i can cook stuff, it won't be delicious, but you won't get hospitalized by it.
I think both the girlfriend/wife & the boyfriend/husband should be able to cook, iron, clean etc.
So fucking true
Depends on a man's age. When he young and doesn't know any better, it's pussy he's after. Later when he learns what's important, it's the cooking that matters.
Either way... Yes or no... it's still the wrong answer in social norms...
Yes - misogyny sexist, and bigotry
No- then why do I need her? I can't cook so someone needs to do it !
If she can't and doesn't even want to learn, the women is going to be one of those pain in the ass fema-nazi types that you don't want a relationship with anyways. Walk away.
Why do you expect a woman to cook for you?
@shinka1y234 I expect a relationship where we cook for each other. Leave feminism out of this. I don't want a personal chef or a maid. I want to SHARE the chores.
@ronalda75 yeah, you are right
I think it needs to be done together. If not, you can learn
would be a bit concerning if she can't survive on her own...
everyone should have some cooking skill to live but overall it's not a big deal.
Someone has to cook, you know. Most guys I know can't cook so 🤷🏻♀️
if she can't or doesn't want to cook then I dont need a girlfriend.
We could learn together.
I want a gf/wife not a chef.
Yes! Cooking shows caring. I will learn how to cook and would want my girlfriend/wife to know cooking too.
Not really. But she seriously need to learn how to cook. A simple 2 month school course can teach her how to be amazing cook.
No, but since I can't cook without starting a new plague, that would be better if she knew, so we wouldn't starve.
A girl who can’t cook!!! Nah, if she really devote time to learn she will for his Man.
while cooking abilities are a fine thing , there are other talents I look for😁
if she can't cook what good is she?
i ain't eating no take out 7-8 times a week or i'll be kicking her out.
Then you need to learn how to provide for yourself like a responsible adult if she can't cook.
@aaronbw ok? I already can. So why can't she?
she's not a maid. Women can do a whole range of other stuff. Take your sexism elsewhere. Bye.
@aaronbw it's not sexism. It's called preference. Do you know what preference means?
I mean
The kids aren't gonna always have fast food or ordered ready meals, it doesn't make sense 🤷
When I was a kid in the mid 1970s-early 90s, there was no such thing as fat kids in school. You also didn’t see herds of fat people in public. People still would pay to see a fatty at the circus. That’s how out of normal it was. Now lazy people celebrate being fat & have 100 excuses for it. They want a pat on the back. No doubt feminism is a big part of it. Plus the stupid simps who went along with it
Liberalism is to be blamed here as well, this stupid ideology of "love and acceptance" is doing nothing but destroying society, people love it, and they'll keep supporting it because they're braindead, as the media and the environment keeps them from thinking critically and not being stupid.
Although I like some liberal ideas, you’re right. Too much of anything is bad
The father can cook for the kis😊
Kids**
What if he doesn't know how to cook? Or he's too busy to cook cuz he's out there working?
You can say the same for the working woman but if you both practice traditional roles then yeah the woman should do
@shinka1y234 I can cook anything from recipe & make it taste perfect (had compliments from people who work in the high end restaurant biz). Now how did I learn to do that? Cooking as a kid. Self taught. Just to survive since my mom cooked stuff I different like at all. It isn’t rocket science like lazy people make it out to be.
But the person who is paying 90% of the bills shouldn’t have to cook most of the time. If both people work they should trade off. If one person has a BS job, they get to cook more too. That’s what’s in the best interest of the relationship
Well if she can't cook she better be helping me in the garage, yard or around the house
Not true, but cooking skill is a big big big advantage.
False. If a woman can't cook she's not flatmate material
False. We live in the 21st century
Not necessarily. As long as she can make sandwiches, clean and take care of the baby.
I know females are gonna be mad at me for this but I agree
I expect her to be able to handle the kitchen. I dont want anybody that dumb in my life.
Can men explain to me why they need a girl who can cook? It is because they want a woman to cook for them or what?
No its just i expect an adult to be able to look after themselves. Cooking is as basic a life skill as taking a shower is.
Here’s a few reasons. 1) You’d have to be a bit retarded to not know how to cook. There is a certain intellectual bar you have to rise above. 2) Independent functioning adults know how to cook food. Eating is part of life. 3) To learn how to cook, all you need to be able to do is listen to another person. Any women that is so self absorbed that she’s incapable of listening to other people and learning is incapable of maintaining a relationship with another human being. 4) If you are unwilling to cook and care for anyone, then you’re not mother material. In order to properly care for children, parents have to be willing to do things for other people even when they don’t get it in return. Children take personal sacrifice. 5) Acts of service are a good way to show your love. You have to be able to help your partner and potential future children when they need your help. Everyone wants someone they know will stand by them.
Tell that to that majority of men who can't cook. So then most of the men are subhuman whore not care for their childreen because they can't cook? And yeah Eating is a part of life but i can eat anything which is not cooked.
Also you can cook and she can wash the dishes or if you can't cook but she can, she should cook and you do the dishes.
Oh i would tell guys that too, if you can't at least make pasta/chilli, a stir fry and a roast you are failing at adult life.
I had a girlfriend who refused to cook, it was a nightmare for me when I'd rocked up after a 18 hour shift and was greeted with 'whats for tea?'.
You say the majority of men can't cook either so what do you do then? People not cooking is a huge health issue right now.
Honestly if you're an adult and can't cook due to ignorance then I do look down on them regardless of sex.
It is my life. You are no the one who starve. Now fuck off
true, i expect women to know how to cook since they are born to cook.
wtf?
If you believe that then your not boyfriend/husband material.
Thsts your choice I don't cook my husband is fine
I cannot cook for my life
Wow, that yes percentage is outstanding.
No I want to cook for my future wife
There is more to a woman's worth than cooking
Baking?
@bigcuband keep it up and I'll put u in an apron and make u cook for me.
@nickib do you think I would taste good in an apron? I think I'd taste better naked😀
@bigcuband no pretty sure u would taste gross. But since I'm not a cannibal we will never know.
Dam i thought you weren't a moron @nickib but now I know why your complaining about this because you likely can't cook or clean oh well, you can just be a prostitute instead
@bigcuband lol. Somebody got offended.
Ya you
@bigcuband Okie dokie silly. Goodbye.
If she couldn't cook, I could
I mean one of use has to or neither of does and we starve. Not a relationship worth pursuing.
Super false, because this is not the 1950s anymore
Greetings my confused and bi - curious friend.
I disagree with you - all women should cook for their man. It is one of their many duties in life.
@Texaskid1 My fiancée is a terrible cook, but she works often
I am a much better cook than she is
Why should we be cooks
To a degree but generally false
When married you can learn together...
Not for me, I can cook.
lol she can later on learn cooking...
Bruh I’m not a House maid im a human bean
Your a bean? Like a coffee bean?
@bigcuband She doesn't know what beans are. She can't cook...
@BeMuse 😂😂😂🤣🤣
