Cooking is an art, a skill which needs to be mastered and honed to perfection and every meal that you eat should ideally be the result of immense contemplation and satisfaction. For what is this mortal life without food? We need food to keep us alive and we need it when we are at the extreme of any emotion. No matter whether we are sad or happy, food gives us a reprieve which no other thing can. You can have lobe you can have money but when you have food you know that you have the real thing. And of course women love to cook and treat their families to good food. However, today, eating has stopped being a ritual, it is more of a necessity and a need that you cannot overcome. It had always been a need but today with the fast life that we are leading, most of us do not have the time to cook as much and to eat it with all the relish in the world.

But, where does the necessity of men learning to cook come in here? See, for ages, women have been coking for men and helping them eat. But times have changed and women are no longer restricted to the domestic setting of cooking and looking after the family. They have now stepped outside the house, started working in areas which were dominated by men ever since the world wars broke out and men were not available at home to run the country. From then, we have come a long way and a lot of things have changed. So, it is for their own good that men should learn to cook. How will your mom or sister be alive? And even the girl friend that you are going to make will have a job of her own and better things to do than cook. Speaking of girlfriends, do you not think that they will be highly impressed if you could cook them a fantastic dinner? But leaving all aside, nowadays since women are no longer as available as they used to be therefore, for reasons of practicality, I think that men should learn to cook.

But, there are many other arguments that can be put up to support this. For example if say you are stranded at such a place where you have to cook and have no choice at all, isn’t it better to know how to cook and do it right rather then bur your fingers and make food which is horrible to taste. Moreover, men should feel proud to know that almost all of the best cooks of the world are men because men have that propensity to cook extremely well and when you can cooks well why should we women deprive you of the show of skill and chivalry?

Also, if you have to look after your mother alone or have a child and are a single parent, you can treat these people and make them happy once in a while by cooking food yourself. but the best point is that you would never have to be dependant on any one or on even fast foods when you know hw to cook.
