Men...how important is it that your girlfriend cooks for you?

[Trialbyfire]

They aim for taste, rather than wanting to extend their lives to the bitter end. Anyway, why not live a little... Canadians have great healthcare.

Living a little is great, living at large like these ladies is abuse of your body.

 

Who knows if Medicare will outlast the baby boomer generation...

I never realised the parallels between gourmet cooking and anal sex - they're both living life to the extreme.

Gourmet cooking doesn't have to be bad for you. There's nothing like a good, healthy deskinned chicken breast done properly. Halibut or Tuna steak is wonderful on the grill. Just don't overcook it and use the proper fresh herbs to enhance flavours.

 

As for anal sex, I've never done it so I'll rely on your expertise...

[Pink Amulet]

Never Trial? :shock:

 

Is there any particular reason?

[Trialbyfire]

I see it as an exit route, not an entrance...

I think cooking is a pain in the ass. It's a lot of work and leaves a mess when you're done, all just so you can eat. I don't really get that much pleasure from eating. It's just something I have to do so I have fuel to do the things I want to do.

 

I use to cook seven nights a week when I was married, well mostly seven nights a week. Sometimes we'd order take out or go to dinner. But I cooked major meals. Nearly every night. Because my exH loves to eat. When I say major I mean roast chicken with mashed potatoes, two vegetables, homemade gravy, corn muffins or biscuits and sometimes, especially on Sunday...dessert. We wouldn't just have spaghetti marinara...we'd have stuffed shells and brajole and meatballs with bread and salad. Major friggin' meals.

 

But I guess part of me is old-fashioned like that because I do think when you're a woman you should cook nice dinners for your man. Especially if they love to eat. If they don't, all the better.

 

But my exH use to cook too. He was a grill master. And he made the most awesome crabcakes ever. And his chicken tenders he use to make kicked ass too. They were done buffalo style. After the divorce I asked him how he use to make them...he casually said "i forget"

 

He always was a little dick. Maybe cause he had sixty pounds of stomach from the food I use to cook. I heard somewhere that for every 30 lbs extra a man has he loses an inch off of his penis.

Oops double post.

 

Very good point Trial.

 

I didn't question it before but I will now- how did we manage to parallel a cooking conversation with anal sex!?

[pelagicsands]

Yet another parallel.

Very good point Trial.

I've always thought that those big fluorescent signs drew attention to exits, though. Like they're inviting you to explore what's on the other side.

Don't ask stupid questions.

That's exactly what I was going to post. I have always said I don't know how to cook to the point where I started to believe it myself, but whenever I follow a recipe, it comes out really good.

 

I just think that cooking is one of the biggest wastes of time, right up there with scrubbing the toilet. That's what you hire other people to do. I calculate in my head how much time I would lose in a given week/lifetime if I was scrubbing, sweeping, vacuuming, and peeling potatoes and I can't get myself to give up that time to something that is meaningless (not saying it's not necessary).

 

One of my recent ex's wanted me to cook. I acted 100% dumb about it. He gave me a cookbook, told me to go to my sister's to get help (she's a gourmet cook). It really upset me and although I was contemplating taking a cooking class and giving in for the sake of pleasing him, even asking for cooking tips, I ended up sticking to my beliefs. I will voluntarily and spontaneously cook, but I never want to 'flaunt' that as one of my traits so that it is expected of me. That's like knowing how to mowe the lawn (haven't tried it before but I'm sure I can push a lawnmower across the grass) but I'd rather pay someone else to do it.

 

Or I view cooking as a luxury. If I have a lot of free time, like vacation time, I might choose to devote part of a day to cooking because it can be a creative process with something to enjoy at the end, but usually I'd rather spend that time more productively since it's something another can do whereas work, reading, self growth activities and so on - i.e. living the rest of my life, is something i don't want to give up for the sake of chopping vegetables in the kitchen.

 

If it's a social thing - cooking with others in the kitchen, I am more than happy to chip in. If it's something I feel like doing out of the blue, whether for myself or for someone else, that's ok too. If it's something demanded of me like a maid or cook, on a regular basis, then I say no thanks. When a guy says he cooks I think that's really cool and a bonus, but if he said he didn't, I wouldn't scratch him off my list. That's what caterers, chefs and restaurants are for.

 

God I love your Post !

Well I think it goes very well together. If the guy loves to eat and the girl cooks for him, he'll get a fat stomach. Then his penis will shrink an inch for every 30 lbs he carries in his stomach. If he is very overweight, his penis will become so small while erect that the only way for the girl to feel pleasure is to take it in the ass.

 

To me it makes perfect sense.

[cutegirl]

Like I said she doesn't have to cook but at least take me out to eat once in a while. Treating a man out to eat takes little physical effort and to me would mean as much as cooking but even that is too much for some feminists. In some women's eyes treating a man with any love and respect means a woman is a stepford wife.

 

I don't cook often for my bf very often but I do VERY OFTEN take him out and pay for both of us, I actually like to pay. I think the woman paying is good for feminism because it shows economic power. I like to pay, I actually don't like the guy paying for me every time. Ideally it should be 50/50, the guy should pay half of the time and the woman the other half.

 

I pay a lot more than he does though, probably like 70 percent of the time. I like it though. I think women who ALWAYS want the guy to pay are lame.

 

I am independent, I like to pay for myself. I don't like to be dependent on anybody! I only depend on myself.

[cutegirl]

OK, Alphamale, yes, it is true to some extent about eating out. But in a lot of households the woman is working by necessity, one income isn't enough! Are you expecting the women to not only bring home the bacon, come home and cook, AND take care of her kids and husband?

Also it's not going to get any better, college graduates are getting paid lower (by today's standard of living) than ever before! Unless a guy has a job like a doctor, lawyer, CEO, or is independently wealthy, the woman is going to have to be working to pay the bills!!! Then add kids to the mix!!! they are expensive, dude!!! We can't go back to the 50's and survive!!!

If you meet a lovely woman and want to marry her, do YOU make enough to support her as she stays home and does the cooking and cleaning? Be honest here!!!

 

Ugh,I wouldn't WANT to be a stay at home wife even if my husband is a millionaire. I CHOSE to work because I'm independent, it has nothing to do with it being "a necessity" like you stated to supplement the "man's income." My income IS the main income. I like to provide for myself. I am ambitious. I wouldn't WANT a man to support me.

Thank you for plugging the gaps for me. Your explanation really hit the spot.

[cutegirl]

well F2BM....that mentality is one main reason why many americans are fat as hell.

 

Umm. not really.. you can order stuff like "The Zone Meals" and have them delivered to your house, or low fat foods/grilled etc. That's what celebs do.

 

There's a difference between ordering crap food and healthy food.

cheap anti-feminist ..oops I mean frugal stingy woman basher...I mean why does she have to buy you dinner ? aren't you superior to her ??

[cutegirl]

hahaha its women mostly who are wanting to get married. its all thats on their mind since they're born. hahaha. you should see some of these never married women in their late 30s trying to find a husband. its HILARIOUS...they're running around like chickens with their heads cut off! then they want to have kids and sheeyot. hahaha. its common knowledge the man gives up 90% for marriage and women gives up 10%. MARRIAGE BENEFITS WOMEN MOSTELY so least she can do is to cook and clean and stuff.

 

Not me, I don't even want to get married at all, I'm not traditional at all, I never dreamt about a wedding and all that sentimental crap. I'm fine just living with a guy, I don't need it to be on paper.

 

If I were married and got divorced, my assets would be more at stake than my bf's because I have more, and he has none.

 

Don't flatter yourself thinking all women want to get married, I know I don't. Please.

No because she is a woman that has earned equal status to me.

I had an ex like that....

Because it should be 50/50. When women expect the guy to pay all the time it actually makes them weaker and less competent. If you want equal rights you have to be willing to go half on everything, including paying for meals, paying alimony (when the woman makes more) etc..

 

WTF is wrong with a woman paying sometimes? I LIKE to pay for the guy (not ALL the time but half the time). I am not retarded where I need a guy to pay for me all the time. I make my own money and I'm independent. I think it's sexy when a woman pays, it shows independence.

At least you are not a hypocritical feminist and I can respect that.

[Mary3]

because things were much better when the sexes had their own roles and responsibilities. society and marriage have gone down the tubes in the past 30 or 40 years. and I blame most of it on bra-burning women who say crap like "no i wont make dinner...."

 

a real women cooks and cleans and takes care of her kids and husband.

 

hahahaha !

 

"Leave it to Beaver" days are over....um like 47 years ago....sooo get used to the year 2007..

 

A real woman knows what to do in the bedroom ....everything else can be ordered in...if she feels like cooking she cooks , if she doesn't, he cooks or they order something.

 

Don't try to tell me :a man works 40hrs , she works 40 hrs, he comes home and grabs the remote and she comes home and busts her a** 3 more hours in the kitchen with prep , cooking and cleaning the mess up. I don't think so and I think what really burns YOUR a** is that we * can * make these choices and you can't do anything about it.

 

You want 1945 back and its long gone.

[cutegirl]

At least you are not a hypocritical feminist and I can respect that.

 

Thanks...

 

Paying is good for the feminist movement because in a way money is power. If you can provide for yourself then the guy will respect you as an equal. How can a woman want full equality if she can't pay half of the time? If the woman always depends on the guy financially he's going to have a tendency to think that she's not as competent.

 

I always think it's weird though when women get so offended at paying. If your successful enough it shouldn't be a problem really. It's nice if the guy pays on the first date but you can't expect a guy to pay ALL the time...

 

I think guys tend to respect a woman more if she's independent.

[pelagicsands]

If the woman pays, then is she expecting the guy to put out? Seems only fair.

[Woggle]

I agree with you on some level. I don't think that in relationships you need to keep score but if women want equal rights they need equal responsibility. Some women scream that independence stuff from the rooftops but when it comes time to take responsibility for themselves they pull the weak little women act.
