Guys, It's Time To Stop Making "Cooking" A Prerequisite For A Good Wife by Nobody: 2:57pm On Oct 09, 2015 |
[b]I asked my friend, 'can you marry a lady that can't cook?' And his reply was swift and blunt.... "For wetin nau?".... Then I knew I can't continue on the topic with him. This notion is same with over 80% of men (either Nigerians or Not). Men have this strong rule that their wife must be a good cook or average at least, But must not be a bad cook. This has nothing to do with tribe or ethnic group, I have noticed it with men from all walks of life. Cooking shouldn't be Seen as a criteria for marrying a lady. For the fact that a lady is a good cook doesn't make her a wife material and the fact that a lady is not good in culinary duties doesn't mean She is a bad wife. From a personal point of view, I Don't think it is a prerequisite for women to be a Very good cook. If you happen to have a wife who doesn't cook well, the man can help out by hiring maids who is good to help her out or invite Any relative over to teach her. If the man is not a Foodie (like me), they can eat out. I know this will not go down well with African men. On a general note, men must jettison that idea and practice of making cooking a criteria for marriage or even dating. There is so much to a woman than her culinary skills.

Yes because food cooking problem can easily be tackled except if the woman in question is very lazy, that is when it becomes an issue. |

Freeman an..a good cook for a wife is essential..but a good cook almost never means she is wife material..whatever wife material means..cooking for your man is just a secret ingredient every woman must have |
Re: Guys, It's Time To Stop Making "Cooking" A Prerequisite For A Good Wife by Nobody: 3:35pm On Oct 09, 2015 |
Freemanan: Yeah. It won't. For me its a matter of personal preference. I am selective of where I eat. So I learnt how to cook myself. And I personally don't like nannies. |
Re: Guys, It's Time To Stop Making "Cooking" A Prerequisite For A Good Wife by Nobody: 3:36pm On Oct 09, 2015 |
Freemanan:Nanny? hian..oh..its like say a nanny should share your bed! No matter how wealthy my husband may be..i.e to afford a cook,his meals must be prepared by me! ..its just that extra special loving care..its like making sure the pantry is stuffed with some of his special things |

If you have experienced some poor customer service at any restuarant before, you would be tempted to think otherwise. |

Re: Guys, It's Time To Stop Making "Cooking" A Prerequisite For A Good Wife by Nobody: 4:07pm On Oct 09, 2015 |
Freemanan:Bros,it should..if she got those other wifey potentials and she can't cook,let her learn..in anycase,you can't be listed as being a wife material and cooking is not listed as a strong point...though I don't subscribe to the fact that a woman can tend the home,clean, cook, possess some qualitative character traits,manage resources in the home she then automatically is wife material..there's more to being wife material for all its worth..in any case if she is a good cook,its an added advantage...for every woman,there are some things that should be nonnegotiable in keeping a home/family |
