zogt_besser, I haven’t been in the CR long enough to know- but I would tend to bet that you’re male.

“That’s the way it’s supposed to be” – only a man would say that.

And yes, I have been taught how to cook- but I don’t enjoy it all that much. As a girl who is hoping to get married, obviously I would plan to cook for my husband, and try to make food the way he likes. I just resent the implication that it is my duty to do so, and my future husband is entitled to expect that I do.

For men/boys who are writing in here, how often do you thank your wife/mother for cooking meals for you? To me, gratitude symbolizes the opposite of entitlement. If a man is grateful for his wife’s cooking, as opposed to having the attitude of ???? ??, it completely changes the situation.
