Our society has divided men and women into different groups, deciding different roles for them. Men and women are born with their duties and tasks already defined by the society they live in, where men are expected to do work outside the house and earn money, women on the other hand are expected to work for their home all along and take care of the family. Out of all the tasks been decided by the society for women, one of their duty is to “cook”, women are expected to cook a delicious meal, approximately 3 times a day considering it as her duty. On the other hand, when a man lends a hand in cooking food, it is considered as a noble, great man, it is considered as an art, because the society do not expect men to step into a kitchen to cook food, that’s what a woman is supposed to do. In many families, women are not even appreciated for the part they hold in making up a house, but when a man, lends a hand it is suddenly considered as a noble man, great man.
Society today needs to know that cooking is a basic skill that should be learnt by every gender, be it man or woman. Its not a woman’s duty to cook and serve but a man serves equal part in everything, including cooking.
Let’s create a better society by spreading equality, every one should be appreciated for whatever they do, a woman cooking food needs to be equally appreciated as a man cooking. Let’s stop making these basic life skills as a big deal for men.
