I don't think women should HAVE to cook for their husbands. It's bad to word it that way. Here in this household we do things equal, we both work, and cook, and shop, and take care of the baby. It's not just me. And I think that women have just as much responsibility to get out there and work as a man does. Im a big believer in being equal.

i agree with you completely and i think if a father isnt equally involved the child and the father are losing out

Yes, we share the cooking too. I dont like to cook. I also have my teens do some of the cooking. They enjoy it and its good to learn how to take care of yourself.

I think it is important for boys and girls to learn to cook, you can't always depend on other people to do it for you. You have to learn to be able to things on your own.

Both Men and Women need to cook, In a Relationship where only one works and the other sits at home. The one that sits at home needs to cook. Also most women do cook as it is. We go to school and take Home Economics to learn that and many other things as well

I think that both men and women should learn how to cook. My husband isn't the best cook, but at least he tries.

I think both girls and boys should learn to cook (and do other "domestic" chores) so that they can care for themselves. I will teach my son to cook, do laundry, sew and to clean so he can live on his own or help his wife if he ever gets married.

Everyone should learn how to cook, at least the basics.

Everyone should learn to cook! Every adult should know all the basic tasks to keep a home going. EVERYONE should know how to cook, clean thoroughly, and do laundry. And no, I do not think women should always cook for the men. In a household where the woman works outside the home, she should get an equal amount of help with the household chores and taking care of children, if the couple has any.

Both should learn to cook as it is not about who goes out to work so much as it is about learning a life long skill. If you don't have someone then what do you live on takeaway? Very expensive exercise. I think its more about survival than who cooks for who.

why only girls even boys should learn how to cook . In today's world you really dont know when u would be living alone and would have to make food from your own hands.

I think girls should learn to cook. I also think that if the woman in the realtionship is a homemaker than yes she should cook for her husband, that is part of her "job" so to speak. The man goes out and earns the money while the woman cooks, cleans, takes care of the kids and so on...i donno call me old fashioned, but that's how my life is and I love it lol

i think if they like to do it they should, i know i hated cooking so when i had kids it was a nightmare because i wanted my children to be fed well but hated to do the work, my husband is a chef so what we do now is i work nights so that i can still be with my children during the day but my husband is responsible for doing all the meals, of course i help out sometimes but this situation seems to work for us, thats why you need a partner who compliments you that way and these are things you definetly want to discuss before marriage not three years in when your resentful
