I am not "succinctly" supporting this, I am only trying to clarify some misconceptions


*Having mused on this issue, I am yet to find anywhere it goes against the principles by which the society cohere.
*I also believe that cooking should be an art/hobby ; one which women should be adept in. That way, we don't look @it as a chore, something to beguile him with or hold it against him.
*A lady should know a relationship that is worth slicing vegetable and onions for (i.e) don't go cooking for every random dude.
*There should be a limit to everything- this isn't an exception. Don't go over-playing the "wife role" and end up with the short end of the stick.
*If he doesn't want/appreciate it -don't do it.

Good Food is The Way to A Man's Heart: I grew up hearing this from my mum and I would always ask her "Is it every man that likes food?"...lolz. She said the average (Nigerian) man does. The only way you would be interested in the way to his heart, is if you care....I guess, as a supplementary reason, it's ok to say, cooking meals for him, shows you care...innih? hahaha.

A Good Woman is Frugal: Now, please don't get it twisted ; I am not saying them Kilimanjaro and Genesis babes ain't good. I am only saying, the economy is hard,you know'.....so, why spend all that money on something you can cook for less? I see nothing wrong in eating out once in a while and as a when due. To get a closure on your expenditure, you can start keeping receipts of your bills @ top notch restaurants , you'd be amazed on what you have spent so far. E fit reach to buy land sef. I think every "normal man"...appreciates a frugal woman.

What better way to regulate your diets/intake?: [This reminds me of a thread, that was centred on a Nairalander who ate in a restaurant and fell sick after.] That could have been your partner *shines teeth*
I really don't trust any food that wasn't prepared by me, let alone the one I didn't see the conditions under which it was prepared. Lets not rule out the fact that, these foods may contain excess calories or some "subtle food poisoning". Take over your meals and intake today.

I hope with these few points of mine, I have been able to convince you and not to confuse you that "cooking for your partner" isn't entirely a bad idea. grin

So I'm less bothered. But sometimes I prefer they bomb the rules and just cook while I entertain them with stories that touches.

I am down with cooking and clean and all that......

Just as long you dont expect martha stewart or betty crocker.

I have a cook book and collect recipes that I attempt to duplicate.

The guy also have to pull his own weight around the kitchen and house at least 30% of time.

Just saying..........we go dutch on a number of things.

Some girls cook not because they like it but because they will get something to eat. It is common around here.

If you genuinely love it and don't see it as a Chore then you'll enjoy it.

The question then is how many ladies genuinely love cooking?

Me, I can't shout. Thank God I know my way in the kitchen. .

Oh I enjoy cooking - strictly for me.

I am single and I cook 90% of time. Not every day of course.

Still like to eat out every once in a while.

Good to diversify palate.....chinese, thai, sushi, ethiopian, meditnarean, nigerian, jamaican.......mmmm.

I like food. Can you tell.
