i can also cook wery well!!!

im sure you can turquise my partner is a better cook than me

whoever from other countries eat our tavuklu pilav says we haven'T been eating anything until we met that meal
we have lots of food like that

yeah i know some 'maço' turkish guys can not cook cuz actually they are still their mother's kids and they always need a women in their life like their mothers
i'm sorry but they dont event know how to make a women
happy.there are many kind of turkish man in turkey and i wish you all knew them before you decide about that. sooo you girls tell me who doesnt wish a man cooked a nice dinner and brought a good vine for you?!

99.99% of cooks in restaurants, hotels etc are MEN.
I think, it is same for almost all countries.

But at home woman should cook, if she is not going out for a work etc, I mean if she stays at home all day. House is the women's place. This is the tradition.
If she works, then the person who comes home earlier than the other one should cook.

It has nothing to do with being independent. It is logical I think.

If my girl friend wishes to cook why do I stop her.
If she is doing something that she likes to do why do I bother her.
I don't mean to force her to cook. If she doesn't want to cook, she is welcome not to cook...

But there are traditions. And if a tradition tells her to cook, it is nothing to do with men. She had been thought by her mother, not forced by a man. So don't blame on men, blame on her mother.

I also don't mean that everybody has the same thought. There are men forcing their gf or wives to cook. But that doesn't mean that everybody in that society has the same thought.

An example from my life. When I hold a party in my house, girls usually go to the kitchen to prepare food. They usually tell men to not to come to the kitchen, it is not we(men) are forcing them to cook or prepare the food.
They want it. Why? Ask them. Not me.
But in return, when the party is over, men clean everything.
It is a sharing.
The country that I live now, Korea, has similar traditions with Turkey. Men never cook here if there is a woman around.
When we (I and my gf) meet other foreign women who married to a Korean man, my gf usually asks about that.
"Does he help you in the kitchen?"
---I don't know why she asks that. I never saw her cooking. Always I cook. ---
The answer is different almost everytime.
"-Yeah, he helps."
"-Yeah, he helps little bit."
"-No, he never steps into kitchen."

Why don't those women(most are from European countries) fight back...?
Why do they accept it as it is?

sometimes men cook sometimes women cook, sometimes men are better sometimes women are better. who cares its for the people themselves to decide if they are happy with cooking or not cooking as the case may be.
