Bachelor in the Kitchen: Does Not Knowing How to Cook Make Men Unattractive?

Let's get one thing straight. Cooking is not just a woman's job. Anyone can cook, regardless of their gender. So, if a man doesn't know how to cook, it doesn't automatically make him a red flag. It just means he has yet to learn this particular skill.

However, it is worth noting that cooking is a basic life skill that everyone should have. It's like knowing how to change a tire or do laundry. It's not rocket science, but it's still essential. So, if a man doesn't know how to cook, it might be worth asking why. Did he never have the opportunity to learn? Does he simply not enjoy it? Or is he just lazy and always relying on takeout or delivery?

All these questions were raised in an Ask Reddit r/dating thread. The conclusion? Whether a man not knowing how to cook at all at over 30 is a red flag or not depends on the context. It's not a dealbreaker, but it's definitely something to consider when looking for a partner. And hey, if he's willing to learn, why not cook up some fun together in the kitchen?
