THE WAY TO A MAN'S HEART?

@JudyEv These days one can get great prepared meals so he will never have to sufffer!! lol

I think that's true too - although maybe after years of bad cooking a man might sigh once or twice and think of what might have been.

I think so too - cooking skills would be secondary.

@Kandae11 I'm sure there is or the fact she can cook wouldn't make a difference.

Yes indeed, men are attracted by a variety of things. I suppose the man who really loves to eat and can't cook, would be more inclined to choose a partner who cooks. Still there has to be some level of chemistry involved.

@Kandae11 Yes, and I hope someday I can cook too.

I think it is important that everyone - man or woman - knows how to help themselves in the kitchen.

@Kandae11 I shoulda said it no longer applies

No - it doesn't

Cooking for you on your first date - my heart would have been stolen as well. In these days there isn't so much emphasis on who does what in the kitchen.

I agree with you there - especially in these days when obtaining good food from other sources is so easy.

Hahahaha! I can attest to that! Us librarians have got the skillz..... lol

It is an advantage - especially if the man can't cook either. Some men don't like buying cooked food outside - except for pizza and other fast foods.

Quite true. There are many other things which could make him quite unhappy.

@Kandae11 yah, a good comparison I prefer a man who knows how to cook

Well, he would know - from his mother's or grandmother's cooking I suppose.

@sabtraversa What my brother could not tolerate was the fact she did not even try to learn so that he was not obliged to cool all the time. As he works (he is a doctor) and his ex wife did nothing all the day, I can understand.

Was he hoping she would learn.

@Kandae11 you got that right

.They know that food can be bought elsewhere. However , some men would prefer both.

@Kandae11 yes indeed, LOVE IS BLIND THAT LOVERS CANNOT HEAR! hahaha!

No, they say - love is blind.

That's a good idea.

@Kandae11 I started my boys in the kitchen early. I didn't want them dependent on a girl for a home cooked meal. Both enjoy cooking now and like their dad, take their turn in the kitchen.

I have tried numerous times with my son, but he doesn't like the kitchen. I think it is important that both parties at least know how to boil an egg.

Being a good cook would be an asset - but certainly not what attracts first thing.

Definitely, his main focus would come into play there.

The cooking thing is more important to some than to others , but I doubt many men would ignore a woman's other qualities and decide not to marry her because she lacks cooking skills.

Isn't it? and there is a story about it. I usually get my ideas about what to write in the early morning hours. So I got this idea about 3a.m. and made some quick notes so I wouldn't forget later. Then instead of going back to sleep, I thought I would look up pixabay to find a picture to go with it - and I thought I found the perfect one. However , later in the morning when I was about to do my post, I found that the picture wasn't saved after all - so I typed in "man eating" again in Pixabay hoping to find it - and the picture which I used in my post showed up, which I think was perfect. Pictured here is the picture which I found previously.

@Kandae11 I'm certainly glad you used the one you used. Retro pictures are funny. Some wahoo dressed in bad taste--not funny.

@TheHorse

Men are good cooks. I suppose that is why you see more male chefs than female.

Yes indeed, some men do place emphasis on that.

@Kandae11 That's okay but if a wife should only cook and aren't allowed to do a job, i hate that
