I believe all men that don´t know how to cook should be ashamed. I once lost a chick I was dating wink some years back in uni cos I could cook so well. She visited me during my exams then, expecting us to eat out but I asked her to go to the kitchen and dish food out for us both. SHe never believed I did the cooking and later told a mutual friend, I can´t date a guy that cooks talk less cooks very well . "If we have an arguement what leverage would I have over him if he can cook" was what she said grin grin grin.
Luckily my wife loves the fact that I can cook very well and finds it sexy when ever I return from work and join her in the kitchen.

Not knowing or knowing how to cook is totally different from providing for the family
I do not need that to be spelt out to me, I know both are different but then even you will agree with me that the main thing is that a man provides for his family. All these yarninings that a man should be ashamed if he can't cook is hogwash to me.

I NEVER get to use maggi. I prefer know and I don't believe in over seasoning the meal. But trust me, with the right seasoning, boiling, steaming, light frying and mixing, it comes out all perfect.

When i said "Maggi" I wasn't talking about a particular brand,I trust you know that "Maggi" is the common\general name all types of seasoning are called in Nigeria,btw i think you meant knorr and not know.smiley

I think anybody, man or woman that can't cook should be ashamed. Definately, women should be the one cookin for thier husbands. But if she should take a trip nko? D man would be very comfortable preparing his own meals.

even tomboys should cook. There may be incidents where d woman may have to go on a business or emergency trip. Is it better for a stranger (house girl) to cook or for d man to cook for his children

You actually plunk everywher around like a fully realized commoner that you really are. Sorry i will pass next time but you really disgust me online... I do wish and hope in real life these abhorent guestures/thinking doesnt elicit resentments from people close to you...

I situations like this the cooking stranger is final option. Dont suck it. These rules were set by the elder societies since in the days of yore. When under excuse or compultion a woman has to leave her home to find money either for support or selfish interest then there should be plans ahead. No hard feeling in this employ a cook and share the bills with your husband since you are doing ok in business instead of sending the man into the kitchen. I cant write much i am on mobile

Re: Should Men Who Can't Cook Be Ashamed Or Proud? by Nobody: 3:14pm On Jun 03, 2012
Hire a cook or indulge in a restaurant. A man can know how to cook, but such precious time can be invested in money making. Hire a cook. U need to employ people. You cant be cooking your way into billionaires club brethren

She go take your eye see qubbish to her own detriment..
Dont flather yourself if you are a guy and think that you can cook. Call out 100000 men and cast vote, more than 80% of them can cook. I can cook myself... But if i couldnt i would not be ashamed... Growing under a mother i needed not worry myself, in university away from how i go to market and cook but apartment mates would hijack and finish it till i got used to sending them, we lived like family (God bless them) and now as a traveler i have made other provisions i either cook which i cant remember doind or employ iyalati to make 4 different robbers full of diferent soups and stew and put in freza . When i get married may god never let funds low i intend to maintain a healthy HOME and i will not allow a woman to send me into the kitchen. If a country or a woman is worth fighting for a family is worth even more

Nothing is as sweet as having your man sometimes cook you dinner as a treat while you remain in bed. . .The hot round of thank-you sèx that comes afterward is priceless. cheesy

Culinary skill sure is a plus. . . **Future husband, take note** grin

Men should know how to cook at least rice and stew. It is basic and even fun when the time is there. But seriously, it is important and it saves money and risk of food poisoning eating out always.
