Do u believe that a woman (should) cook for her man ? 🍲 🍲 🍲
Let's keep it real here. Why the hell would any man [b]marry[/b] a woman who refuses to cook a nice hot meal for him. I don't usually think this is an issue for a casual long term [b] relationship.[/b] But in the state of [b] marriage [/b] its mandatory for me. What about you ? I'm not saying you have to cook every single day. But forget that I'm a frozen dinner, eat out/take out daily gal. No we not gonna do that. Comments. 😛
No one person should [b]have[/b] to do anything alone provided they aren't the sole adult. I mean who [b]should[/b] cook, wash the dishes, tidy the house, clean the swimming pool, manicure the lawn, ready the kids, sort the plumbing, fix the car, change the tyres? As a family you share responsibility for all those things. How and why you delegate responsibility for each of those responsibilities is another story.
I don’t think it should be mandatory, but I am a stay at home mother and feel that it’s part of my “job”… I try to make sure the home is taken care of and food is on the table for my family.
I enjoy cooking though… so that helps. I think it makes my house feel like home; the smell of a yummy meal cooking.
@WaryWitchWandering I agree, it should not be mandatory and is not in our household. I am fortunate as my wife likes to cook but I always set the table, clear the table and do the clean up after.
I think cooking is generally considered nowadays to be a joint responsibility. I on the other hand love cooking and see the kitchen as my domain so I’ve always been of the mind that especially if you are at home all day and hubby is working then why shouldn’t he have a dinner on the table when he gets in. Now the extreme feminists about will jump on my back for that but hey it’s just how I feel.
For me… I am home (like you mentioned). I think people are under the assumption a stay at home mom doesn’t do much, but I do all the cleaning/cooking/and most the child care. I wear many hats in this house, I also do yard work and shovel when necessary. I even have taught myself how to repair a few things that were within my ability/timeframe.
I don’t see myself as submissive for cooking for my family. I enjoy to cook, and I’m home so it is something I can do to make up for the fact I don’t bring in $.
I also enjoy using specific ingredients and feel I am giving more than just a meal when I cook. It’s enjoyable in many ways for me
@WaryWitchWandering Totally understand and agree with you. We just have our own things we like to do. My husband loves vacuuming and he’s got his own way of doing it so he prefers me to leave that to him and I’m fine with that.
It’s certainly not mandatory, but I think the one who [i]enjoys[/i] cooking (and hopefully is the better cook) should do the majority of the cooking. Myself, I love cooking and providing delicious, home cooked meals for my loved ones so it’s no hardship for me to take on that task. I have always been the main cook in my home. I also thoroughly enjoy TEACHING my skills to someone who is truly interested in spending the day in the kitchen with me, learning the tricks of the trade, so to speak.
@ImpeccablyImperfect I like your attitude! For me (a man) cooking is a pleasure and I enjoy sharing it with my partner (we both cook for each other, with pleasure)
my ex was working full time, i was only working 20 hrs a week i saw it as my side of the partnership to do laundry,meals,housework etc, i disagree with these women that lounge around all day and do nothing to contribute to the home and there are quite a few about Playstation queens lol
Yes, I do. If I were married and she is home all day with the kids, the least she can do is make a nice home cooked meal for me to look forward to when I come home and to make sure there's no messes anywhere. Can't just sit on her ass all day doing nothing. If I married someone and she wasn't contributing and doing anything while I'm doing everything myself, then we might as well just be roommates and I'd just divorce her. Because then that means she brings absolutely nothing to the table and just wants me as her ATM. All relationships are transactional, whether anyone wants to admit it or not. The man has his role of what his job is to do in the home and the woman has hers.
@Zonuss thank you. I personally know a man who is getting divorced from his wife because she is selfish and wanted to end the marriage and now she blames him for literally everything even though he did everything for her. See where the issue is? He took out the garbage, did all the cooking and cleaning, and still worked every day, while she sat on her lazy ass doing nothing. Did she have any respect for him? Hell no. She treated him like shit. Although his biggest mistake with marrying her is he married a single mom who was 8 years older than him and already had 2 kids from 2 different baby daddies, and she had a lot of baggage and was damaged as all hell. And he thought it'd be great to date her and then married her after only dating for 2 years. I tried to warn him, our friends we have in common tried to warn him, our family tried to warn him, everyone did. And she takes zero accountability for why the marriage ended and instead just blames it all on him and on my mom. Blame everybody else around you except for yourself, typical modern woman strategy in taking no accountability for any bad decisions you've made.
My bf and I cook for eachother. But tbh, he is really passionate about cooking, so he does most of it. He starts planning what dinner to make before he even leaves the house every morning! Lol
I like cooking for my man because he never expects me to, I never cooked for my parents out of love as they felt it was my “duty” and forced me in the kitchen which made me hate cooking till I met my man
@exexec it doesn't even matter who is 'better' at it. It's the idea that if she is being provided for, her role is the nurturer, which involves feeding her husband/spouse.
To be honest, I don’t mind cooking meals for my husband. Even though he is not demanding, but he leaves no stone unturned in looking after me so why shouldn’t I care for him.
Cooking for your husband occasionally is more than doable. Where I live, a woman cooking for her man is a norm especially among the Hindu community. I'm agnostic but my family on my father's side were all originally from India. I find that many people who can afford to buy food daily without hesitation, often forget that there are people who can't.
@victoriabridgelal Interesting perspective. I noticed that a lot of [b]wealthy[/b] families do this. The wife may cook every once in a while. But they definitely do eat good. ☺️
@Zonuss Depending on where you live and the culture, women are expected to cook, clean etc. regardless of the family's household income, whether it's low or high.
I enjoy cooking a lot personally as I can get the flavors and textures to be just as I want them to be, but I would like to be with a woman who also cooks just so that I do not need to be the only one doing so.
But I'm also not really against just like making sandwiches and frozen meals too. Easy and fast to make and like no effort. Speaking of which I think imma make myself a steak sandwich right now as we got a lot of leftovers to go through.
@Zonuss many wives work as much as their husband. They aren't being taken care of, supported, by their husband. That being said, it should be a 50/50 proposition. If one of those people doesn't work because they don't have to, then they should take on the majority of the meal prep, etc.
I could care less. Just because she has boobs doesn’t mean it’s her job to feed me.
If she’d like to cook, that’s great. She’s certainly capable. If not, I’ll make something. I often get home from work late, so she’s almost always eaten already.
The best chefs in the world are all men, but nobody cooks like grandma . That being said , traditional house roles work for many people . I wouldn’t expect my woman to shovel snow , so it works both ways in a symbolic way.
@MrBrownstone yes , of course i do . eeta wenta lika dees ...
my astrology book predicted so many things that came true , please , attention-seeking slutty blonde girl , give me some attention because i am a sad lonely angry old man who votes republican no matter what the democrats say
@Zonuss I cannot depend on the food being cooked properly. I buy her all her breakfast food protein drinks and fruit bars. I buy meals for both of us from restaurants a couple times a week. She will not cook food the way I asked her to. She tells me the food is good when it is not. I was willing to buy all the food for both of us but she will not cook it or store it right. She puts a bunch of salt in the hamburger I say don't put salt in the hamburger but then I have to ask her every time we have hamburger and it tastes salty. She pours cooking oil on the pre-cooked potato patties that only need to be heated, I say don't douse the potatoes in oil. She serves me hard boiled eggs warm when I have told her over and over that I like them cold. I cook excellent meals for both of us weekly but have lost motivation to do so.
