I can see a branch industry developing, in relation to prostitution. Hookers who can cook. For an extra fee, she'll make you a home-cooked meal after the sex. Heaven, for men!
LOL! I know! And this was an internet person, who seemed perfectly normal on paper. Did community service. Did school plays to help kids with self esteem. Standup comic.....
First I thought it was all a joke...but I realized he was totally serious!
There were a host of other "red flags" too. All I have to say is you really never know until you meet people. A lot of people come off as "normal."
Last time I saw the new guy I am dating (steps away from bf status, I will add), cooking came up. I asked him if he likes oxtails because I love to make and eat them, and his eyes lit up. He said he has been looking for a place that serves them for months.
I love to cook, for myself and other people. And trust me, men LOVE it when I cook for them. I thin they all enjoy it. And really, if you eat out or eat convenience foods everyday, you are probably fat. It makes sense to know how to feed yourself. In an emergency I can kill, clean and cook an animal. I can gather food too.
I find it strange that so many women are actually proud of their inability to cook. I see it right on this thread. Since when is a lack of ability something to be proud of?
I am Sicilian, my wife is English, Scotch and Welsh. After the first meal she cooked for me when we were married I said, "Honey you cook like a white girl. Let me take care of the cooking". Worked for 24 years.
I went out with a guy once who was older than me and didn't know how to cook. (After asking me if I can cook) He said he thought it was the woman's job to cook and didn't bother learning because his mom cooked and his ex-wife did too.
I thought that was a really good reason not to go out with him again. Who knows what other gender stereotypes were lurking back there.....
I had a male friend like this. He invited me over to see his new place and to order carry outs. I asked him if he was learning to cook and he said no because when he married it would be his new wife's job. He is a big time misogynist who uses the bible to justify this and it's the main reason we were never serious.
Or sewing....heck my girl will sit in the AC watching soap opera and after I've busted my arse mowing the grass in near 100 degree heat and after fixing dinner she'll finally ask," Hey you need some help?", after everythings done of course.

Sewing is not as useful a skill as it once was. Making clothes is no longer frugal. But why would you put up with your gf doing that? Sounds pretty ****ty.
