cooking

I cook and if he cooks then its a perfect match.
If he doesn't then it is still a perfect match.

 

[SpiritualAntiseptic]

I love cooking and I love inviting people over, especially dates, to cook for them

great,
i'll be home at Five, have it on the table.




interesting replies,
It does seem a little effeminate to be a competent domesticated male.
Perhaps doing manly things to offset that would help.

I'm a solid cook, and I would expect my wife to be reasonable in the kitchen too. I'm not talking gourmet at every meal, but good tasty food done efficiently.

A man who knows how to cook/bake=

Ohhhhh really?

Well wait til you get a load of me.

I do make some mean nachos though

Sheesh, cooking and baking aren't that hard... I admire people who can just throw stuff together without any recipes, though. Hopefully I can reach that echelon some day.

Hey, I cant help it my oven burns everything.

(Hey, as long as there are people that believe GUNS kill people, I will argue that my OVEN burns the food. )

Strider's right though, cooking isn't rocket science.

Now...Top Chef might be rocket science... No, it isnt, just much more advanced. Nobody is saying you must cook like those on cooking shows, but learning to cook decently for yourself and family is really not hard.

I don't see how being viewed as a little effeminate means that he needs to do something to "help" that image. I personally would much rather have a husband with helpful skills, especially those that complement mine (like if he cooks), than a husband who thinks he needs to compensate for any helpful trait that happens to be considered effeminate by our culture.

Yeah, I cant do that. If im cooking something I measure everything and follow the directions to a T. I don't cook by feel, I cook by following directions.

how are cooking and baking effeminate? Some of the best chefs/bakers in the world are men.

because it goes hand in hand with being in touch with your emotional side, having excellent fashion sense & having cushions on your couch.
the vast majority of men don't even think about that stuff, because we just don't notice.

Like stereotypes much?

 

[Squeakers]

girls/ladies/females

are you intimidated or put off by a guy who is a better cook/baker than you are?

Blind post:

Goodness gracious, no! In fact, if he cooks/bakes better than me, I'd ask him to teach me more.

Oh, are they now?

Do you use cheese or alfalfa almond milk cheese?

for the record, I'm an excellent cook better than most females I know.
I have cussions on my couch, dress very fashionably, great with kids, but the emotional side needs some work. Such is the life of a stay at home dad.

I do manly things like gym, hunting, several nights alone in the bush & have a beard so I don't feel like Smithers.

100% srs
balance is everything.

I see too many guys who check all the domestic goddess boxes & forget they are men.

I might be if I ever met such a paragon.
