Yap, the weakness of a husband or a man is their stomach. Wives should really learn how to cook so that their husbands would not go to other house to find good cook. If ever the wife doesn't know how to cook, she better learn or else her husband would find another woman who can cook well!!!!!!

That's a nice sexist discussion starter. What is it with these topics? Seriously guys! Get over yourselves and learn to cook for yourself. You married for a wife... not a mother...

yes, I can cook. I have been married 47 years and my husband tells everone what a good cook I am. Where I grew up, (in the south) that was one of the first things we were taught to do. Living on a farm, I learned very early, I was the first girl (two older brothers) and I would cook while they worked in the fields. Well, I had rather cook than pick cotton any day.

are you for real?
that is silly?
Why couldn't a marriage work if the wife can't cook?
I cook a little bit, but my boyfriend does most of the cooking in the house. It doesn't matter who cooks the meals.
My advice to you is learn how to cook because thinking things are only a womens job will never get you a wife!

Why not? Are husbands not able to cook? I think a man should be able to cook for his family. I don't see any problem with men and women sharing duties such as cooking.

I can not believe that there are still men out there living in the stone age! Take your manly club and bash something and throw it over a fire for petes sake! Yes a woman should know how to cook, but so should a man. A woman is NOT your maid nor is she your slave, if your hungry make something. This is the woman you love? It is not love to think your marriage will fail because your woman can't cook, get off your lazy tukus and learn together.

I think there are cultural differences at play in this discussion. Where I live, men and women are both responsible for cooking. If both work outside the home, they either delegate cooking to the person who enjoys it most, or take turns. I am now a stay at home parent, so am happy to cook as part of that role, but if in the future, my husband stays home, he will be responsible for the cooking.
