On our previous class, one of our classmates did mention on what stereotypes that he had in a character of a wife and he said, women should know how to cook.
Well, you are right. We, women should know how to cook. But we are not slaves. We, women cook because people love our food and they love to eat, not because we need to.
If the reason is to feed the family, then what is the point of cooking if they do not eat our cooking and instead, eat outside?
My friend, she used to tell me that her father always complaint if her mother did not cook. But, the reason why her mother did not cook is because whenever she cook, her husband rarely eat it. Her father would go out and eat at the stall or we, Malay call as 'Kedai kopi' (coffee shop).
Some people may think that the house chores should be done by the wife. But the stereotypes at least should be changed and the husband should help their wife instead of letting their wives do the chores alone.
*You should watch the video and don't skip it..It is a good message.
I agreed with Hidayah.. We cook because it our responsibility and it is for the one that we love. I am not against my own culture, ( as my aunties and grandmother always told me that, even if you have your Phd, at the end your place will be the kitchen )but sometimes men need to help their lady to do the house chores rather than chilling around. I am not saying you need to do it everyday.. Men..sometimes your wives needs her time, they need to rest. It does not makes you look girly to do something that your wives usually do.
No hard feelings man! These are just our opinions based on the discussions we had in the class. I think that this thing has to do with culture. Different culture, different perspectives. What do you think?
