What’s the craze about “I am a wife not a cook…I have always known the Devil is after marriages, this is the height of it.
I have a set of twins, a boy and a girl. They are 7 years old. I am very gender sensitive, meaning, the little chores they do, I share it equally. Dabbie my daughter naturally plays with doll babies, plaits their hairs, plays house by cooking for her dolls and feeding them and tender with her babies….I didn’t teach her this, they are the last born, so she never saw me doing this…
Jeozie my son, plays with trucks, Rocks, cars, stones, balls, roughly. …while Dabbie pampers and even backs her dolls. I remembered growing up, having two boys directly under me….I played house, cooked with sand, mud ,water and empty cans. My brothers played balls, and other rough games.
Taking care of the home is naturally wired into the core of the fiber of womanhood. Female Animals, do same, I Remember the mother hen. Are animals getting more sensible than us. Any woman saying she will not cook for her husband needs psychiatric evaluation, cooking, taking care of the home are natural instincts wired into the fiber and DNA of a woman. Being the breadwinner should not stop you from cooking. Agreed the man should help out with house chores, if he naturally loves cooking, there’s nothing wrong with him cooking, nothing wrong with him serving you breakfast in bed, at his will, not as a command or demand from you. I have been served breakfast in bed and have served breakfast in bed.
“Taking care of the home is naturally wired into the core of the fiber of womanhood.”
Marriage should be give and take. No set rules as each marriage is unique to those in the union. Whatever works for the peaceful harmony of the union. What works Angela will definitely not work for Stella. We are all unique beings. Identify the rhythm of your marriage and flow with it
Female breast feeds, nurtures. Please I beg every married woman not to listen to this crap and deceit from the pit of hell. Don’t call me or any sister for prayers after you foolishly push your husband away into the hands of another woman that is a natural woman, with this nonsense I am a wife, I am not a cook. #Inukwa Biko.
I am liberated, lived in the western world for over 3 decades, full time clergy, own and run multi national corporations. I cook for my family. I am heading down to the states, as soon as I hit the ground, I am cooking Egusi soup. I have cooks, gourmet cooks, I am still the chief cook. Nothing beats the satisfaction of watching your family ravage your food and asking for more.
