This really has degenerated to gender warfare. You know what it tells me when a woman says she will not or won't share the cooking? You are lazy, selfish and spoiled. What does it tell me when a man says he can't or won't cook for his mate? He is lazy, selfish and spoiled.

For cryin' out loud. Cooking is a simple life skill. Think you have money and health problems? Try eating out every day. You will be broke and sick as crap most of the time. So, young men and ladies pull your heads out of that new age/feminist nonsense you have been force fed and realize, YOU AND YOUR PARTNER ARE IN IT TOGETHER. It is going to take both of you top make a decent life. This means giving and taking on all the choirs.

i like to cook and im a good cook so i enjoy cooking and dont mind cooking most of the time but there's days when i dont feel like cooking and wish my gf could do some cooking but she can't. call it sexist but i think women should be able to cook,heck everyone should be able to cook to some level, its a pretty basic skill. you dont have to be an iron chef but be able to cook something edible, its not too much to ask. i especially think women should be able to cook.

I have never loved my girlfriend more than that moment. Ok maybe, not, but I'll tell you I adored her in a respectful manner at that moment, not a misogynistic one that certain people would try to spin it into.
Freakin' wow. I think I'd fall on the floor astonished if that happened to me. I'd probably feel the same way.

Yes he is because he can cook! I'll take him over a misogynist jerk who expects me to cook for him without cooking for me. Exactly why would I want a man who expects me to cook for him?

If a woman can't or will not cook I just wounder how my kids are going to eat. As soon as I finish college and start work I do not feel like cooking when I get home. I do not think I would be up for it after a 12/14 hour shift three days a week. On my days off I do not mind cooking and cleaning.

What about the man cooking for the kids? most women work after having kids, why should cooking just be their job? It should be a shared job.

But what if she is working on those days? What if you end up working on the days you were supposed to have off? that's the thing, most people work and some work several hours so it should depend on factors like who is working and who is working that time etc. I work, I plan to continue working even if I get married or have kids. As a result both of us will cook, though him probably more because he likes to and is good while I'm not as good and don't like it as much.
