Definitely 'yes'. Everyday, I wander on the streets to decide where I should go to stuff my stomach after work. If I could cook myself, I needn't struggle in looking for a place to stuff my stomach. It is time for me to learn to cook.

BBQQ, I am with you. Many girls hope that her future husband can cook for her and I am one of them.

I look forward to cooking for my wife, as I'm sure she will look forward to cooking for me too.

When I moved out from my mother´s and father´s, my mother gave me a cooking book.
I have cooked ever since. I think I would not be able to be a restaurant cook, but I am still alive, so maybe I can cook.
My all daughters can cook something, oldest is a cook in a small restaurant. (Not learnt from me, well, Sicilian pizza, maybe)
I think men should be able to cook, at least some. Nice to give wife some free time from cooking. Maybe more than some.

In my family, all men can cook, wash dishes and do laundry. My father has always taught us to be sel-reliant no matter what. I am so proud of them.

SHESGOTTOBE, your dad is great. Learning cooking benefits men a lot. At least, they needn't eat instant noodles after work or just find a place to stuff their stomach as DREAMLIFE said. BTW, Have you noticed that almost cooks in those restaurants or hotels are male?

Hi JimmyB!

Thank you!

Yes, most of the cooks and chefs in hotels and restaurants are males. Even the cooks and chefs in cruise ships are males. I think it is a good job. I remember when I was in a China chatroom and a guy sent me a message. He said he is a dishwasher in a restaurant and he was surprised that I kept on talking with him. He said most people would stop talking to him after learning that he is a dishwasher. He said actually, he is a cook! ^_^"

Yes, it is true that most cooks in those hotels or restaurants are men. Why no girls? They care about their skin too much. To stay in the kitchen for a long time hurts their skins a lot and makes them older. That is why those girls do not like cooking. (Just kidding). Of course, there are exceptions. I wonder if you guys watch this movie----No Reservations performed by Catherine Zeta-Jones, Aaron Eckhart and Abigail Breslin. Women also can be excellent cooks :-)

To be a cook in popular restaurant is hard, hard work. Hard physical work. In some food-ads in tv there is a "Frenchman" with moustache enjoying and creating and...voilá! Delicious looking meal is born. It is far from reality.
I think not many women could survive because of the hardness of that work. Maybe that´s the reason most cooks are males.

Why not
Unless they acquire a servant as they said I DO.
Some have that as feminism, I have it as an equalized right of woman, man must do cooking and house keeping as the wife too.
