I find it soooo weird that people say cooking is a womans job (it should just be who ever likes cooking job), but in most parts of the world, men are dominantly the people who do the cooking in professional and home environments. I love cooking and my partner loves the chemistry of baking, else we would just have a cabinet of craft dinners and ramen (not that we dont have those on hand).
Just about all prejudice is just manufactured cultural pressure. There's no base in reality or rationality, it's just "people told me this often enough that now I believe it." It easily shifts from culture to culture because different people said different baseless things that became "common knowledge" in that region.
Yeah. I do most of the cooking for me and my girlfriend, and that suits both of us. I like being able to cook what I want, and she likes eating what I cook.
That's actually most of the relationships my friends are in as well. The guys do most of the cooking. And honestly in this day where women have higher degrees and are getting better paying jobs, cooking is essentially the bare minimum for most guys to get a girlfriend.
