As for me, the lady I will marry must know how to cook. .If not yet, then she must enrol in a cook-coaching school. .I can't endure coming back from a tiring day at work only to eat a jollof rice full of salt! God forbid

I find my soul can only really bless my woman after she makes an awesome meal for me out of love.
I have no control over this deep urge to bless her after this. It just happens. 

I think men were just designed that way cuz Isaac required Esau to go and cook beta cooking for him before he could grant him his final blessings (Which Jacob sharply kolobi'd)

many modern naija girls nowardays really dont know how to cook.all they are interested in is eating junk food.this is one reason when we naija men ask them out they beg us to carry them to mister biggs and mcdonalds

ochukoccna:



Na food be that?

Billions of men?
How many people are really on the planet, About 7 billion.
How many of them are grown men within the lady's reach?
How many men of marriageable age can a lady attract in her life time?
Drop the billions, I believe you get the drift.

Truly no was born to cook, but there are traditional roles even in all of our imported modernity, I cook may choose to help out wifey in the kitchen yet I expect her [and I believe most men do] to supervise the kitchen arrangements. All those jokes about the housemaid taking over and warming Madam's bed start with little issues like cooking.
When last did anyone listen to LADY by FELA
All this more, Abami E don prophesy
My sister is British educated, she cooks for her husband even with her accent
Many of us grew up to see her mothers, sisters, aunties, grandmothers cooking for their husbands even though they had maids to help out
This cooking sessions were bonding sessions where knowledge and skills passed down
Yorubas say 'Olobe lo ni oko'
Why do think Calabar women are said to have the lowest divorce rates in Nigeria?
If true, I believe it has to do with two notable skills Calabar ladies are brought up to possess
I leave you to go figure what they are
Even God showed up in His pre-incarnate form to sample Sarah's cooking- Gen18

^^ And thus another display of selfish, immature youth.
~That "for a man to choose not to marry <blah blah blah> = ME means he is a boy and not a man, no matter how unfit for marriage life I am."

markolini:
@all i dont think the guy was refering to all nigerian girls, my sisters can cook ooo, lol, @natasha dat reminds am still waiting for your reply ooo, as regards benin

ogugua88:

Na my hope o. There is some truth I would think. It's one of two things sha.
1. Fewer girls excel in the kitchen these days
OR
2. Them fit perform for kitchen but choose outside food.

Some of us still dey cook, so there shouldn't be any generalizations.

Waiting for the "Men And Their Lazy Work Ethics" thread to pop up any day now. You think say na only some girls wey dey carry last these days?

Sun of god: Dont blame the women - blame the parents for not raising them well.

As far as i'm concerned a decent girl should know how to cook and farm!!

If she can also hunt then that would be a bonus.

odumchi:

Why do you think Oprah is still single?

nep2ra: With the high level of irresponsibility these Nigerians girls are showing in the cooking department, it wouldn't come as a surprise if they go into extinction very soon. I have a white girlfriend from Eastern Europe and she can cook nearly all the Nigerian dishes I know of VERY WELL.
You are a woman and a Nigerian one at that. Stop forming liberal feminist and learn how to cook. Omolo!

armyofone: women are not born with pot, spoon and stove. better to go into the kitchen and cook. stop equating being a woman to mean cooking.

Ladytemi:


Could not have said it any better. The worth of a woman does not rely only on her ability to cook, there is nothing wrong with you cooking for yourself.

I think it's high time nigerian men become civilized.

Nobody is born with a pot and pan, men should also be able to cook, that's why everyone studied economics and cooking classes in school.

GoodWife:


I beg to differ. I am a woman and I think that it is the responsibility of women to cook. If you are a working wife, yes your hubby can help but pls ladies, don't tell them to go and cook themselves. Anybody that does not want to cook for her husband should stay in her parents house eee. Please don't get married.

Go and learn how to cook now before it is too late. Women liberation no reach for this one eee.

fishmanjoe:
I wonder what this country is turning to, wither our culture? Im surprised that some ladies are defending others who doesnt know how to cook, basically a responsible lady must know how to cook or she will loose her home, nothing is wrong if the husband assist though, but if you dont know how to cook, how do u teach your children? Are you teaching them to be going to fast food joints, no wonder cancer is prevalent in our society, The wives of billionaire legal luminaries of blessed memories like F.R.A Williams, (SAN) Gani Fawehinmi (SAN) does the cooking for their husbands even staff!, who are you not to know how to cook good food for your husband?, better go back to your village to learn cooking and dont give your children cancer, diabetes etc with the junk foods laced with artificial spices, GOD SAVE NIGERIA!
