I would prefer a guy who knows how to cook, but I wouldn't mind if he does not know. However, I would hope that he knows the basics, such as using an oven, or the stove, boiling water, etc.
^Why is that now? So, now girls are no longer running around with apron on in the kitchen anymore, the role is now switching over! :runawyanow:
With parents owning a restaurant, I naturally learnt how to cook and really enjoy. I can say it definitely helps with the women.
