RE A Man cooking at home and changing diapers:
“I have to give you a source for a pasuk? It says lo yilbash. We know that it includes anything which is normally done by women. That includes dieing hair, carrying a weapon (for a woman) and so on.” [Moshe Rose, years ago]
— You don’t need to give a source for a posuk. Just make sure you have a source that it includes anything which is normally done by women – I do not belive that a man cooking at home is violation of the Torah.
Heres another example. Rav Eliyashiv holds that its assur for a woman to drive. Why? Lo Yilbash. The S”A says a man isnt allowed to look in a mirror. Why? Lo Yilbash. Anything that a woman does regular is part of Lo Yilbash. That includes cooking at home.
Find a source for that please. Most things said in the name of Moron R’ Elyashiv Shlit”a were never said. How do you know he paskened like that? I have a proof he never said that. R’ Akiva Eiger paskens clearly ??”? ??’ ??”? that the Halacha is decided on the social norm. It is perfectly normal for a woman to drive.
And also: The ???? of not looking into the mirror is also dependant on the norms. The ????? ????? ???? {and apparently the ???, although i have never seen it} paskens that it is 100% muttar in a place where it is the normal thing to do. In our generation, it is very normal for men to look in the mirror.
And, as work moms become more common, it is equally growing to have the husband cooking. DEFINITELY no ?? ????.
[most yeshiva guys in the world cook- although that may not have a shem cooking.]
