So, we all know men are still expected to initiate everything and provide. But do you still think women should hold up their end of the gender roles with cooking and cleaning?

It's all about the attitude and willingness to learn. I don't care how many hours she works. If she has the mentality that she isn't going to even try then she can hit the road and find another dude.

No if they have the skill It's a bonus. Same goes for the male.

The same way I feel about a man who can't cook, or a woman who can't initiate and provide: They are missing an essential life skill, and might have some issues.

Mod cut: Off topic.

What about you, why can't you learn? Why not learn together?

What are you talking about? You need to clarify your OP. If you're talking about a stay-at-home-mom, that's a whole different issue. Please restate your OP. Strive to express your thoughts clearly so others can understand them.

I can and do know how.

But this post didn't ask about men. It asked about the WOMEN.
