7 Reasons Why Guys Need To Learn How To Cook by Cutehector(m): 5:24pm On Jun 12, 2016
Some guys I know don’t consider cooking a worthwhile venture. Besides the occasional stint behind the grill, they’d rather bask in blissful ignorance than feed themselves in more than 3 steps: stab, chew, swallow.

But ask any woman (or man that already knows how) why it is better to be a kitchen savvy dude and you’ll start to see what these guys are missing.

Whether it’s because they think it takes too much time, too much effort or wrongly assume it’s a woman’s job, men who never learn to cook are losing a huge opportunity to take their man skills to the next level.


1. Chicks dig it

There isn’t a woman alive immune to a man who can make her a delicious meal. If you’re as unblessed as I am in the looks, charm and money department, options for bagging the love of your life are limited. That’s where cooking comes in. On the second date with naughtynaughty, she literarily fell in love with me because i knew how to cook her favorite meal.. Okpa... grin

2. Life skills are manly

You can fix your car, hunt wild animals and build a camp fire. Shouldn’t you know how to feed yourself without a drive-thru?

3. You’ll save money

Though there’s a good chance you’re single if you never learned to cook (see point #1), a home cooked meal is a much cheaper date night (or singles night) than dinner for two at Chez Fancy—particularly with the 150% wine mark up common at most restaurants.

4. It’s faster than going out

Fancy date meals aside, cooking at home is almost always faster than going out—so long as you know what you’re doing. Once you have a few basic skills down, you can stop wasting your time in fast food spots simply because you don’t know what else to eat.



5. You might lose weight

Cooking is one of the easiest ways to improve your diet and stick to reasonable portions. This is a recipe for weight loss, if you’re willing to swallow it. If you have no interest in cooking for any of the above reasons, then do it for love: love for yourself and for your family. Processed foods are the devil’s cuisine. This is a fact. Only last week, a new report that the chemicals that combine to make them more-ish are addictive and make you fat. So ditch the convenience, learn to cook, and give yourself and your loved ones a healthy future.

6 You might like it

Cooking is relaxing, fun, creative, purposeful and, hopefully, delicious. Why wouldn’t you want to add this skill to your tool belt?


7.Therapy for the mind

Busy day at work? Cook. Kids freaking you out? Cook? Bad news about an old friend? Cook, cook, cook. Cooking is an incredible therapy for when you’re feeling stressed. It focuses the mind, forces you to concentrate on your ingredients, method, temperatures and times.It locks you away in the kitchen rather than shouting at everyone in the living room. It is the best form of mind therapy. And then you get to eat nice stuff!

Just when you start cooking for a woman you shouldn't see washing her undies as disparaging.

Bullsh*t.

Now this is a FrontPage Worthy thread..

But unfortunately, it has no snakes on it.. Smh.. Pity..




I've always thought cooking is for women.. I have sisters, so I never really paid attention to the kitchen.. Now it's hard for me

lol even me wants my sister to marry a well to do man so i'd be a hypocrite if I say it's a bad thing.


Buh come to think of it, such sweet moments tend to evaporate from people especially ladies wen the relationship gets sour..


Wen I was the chief executive of friend zone in d past cheesy dis girl I used to like will just be gushing over her boyfrnd.. Chei.. infact, she was nothing on earth will eva come in d way of two of dem gettn married. Until wen d guy fvcked up.. impregnated another girl..



She now hates yoruba men cuz of that. Cuz her first love is from yoruba
Re: 7 Reasons Why Guys Need To Learn How To Cook by Rukkydelta(f): 2:08pm On Jun 14, 2016
@ Cutehector. Chief executive of friend zone cheesy ? Well I'm not surprise cos one of your siggy at a certain time says better hate me than to friend zone me. What happened to your friend is a normal stuff that's why I advise everyone into a relationship to have a side guy or side chic

lol being in d friendzone suxs badly.


Well as for d side chic thing, Naaaaaah, dats not d kinda guy i'll like to be.

Almost all d "girls" i"v dated do not want commitments, it's a pity tho. Sometimes I just wonder who are the females saying guys don't commit too.. and just wen u want to be a player, girls will start branding u heartless, not even tryn to know why he turned out to be like dat..


Well I don't blame wayward people, it is as a result of their past that made dem what they are today. Everyone was once pure in heart...



Buh, d last thing I will ever do is to lower my standards, just because i'v been hurt. I stand on my grounds to say this, I will never be dat guy who's got a side chic, will never stop believing in love no matter how much it hurts...
