It’s another Sunday and today we bring yet another exciting topic on our Elcrema Sunday Love Special. This topic seems to be funny at first glance but this really is an issue that some men actually do take serious.<\/p>\n

Can you settle down with a lady that can’t cook anything? Would you push that off and just settle for junks, maids and probably feed off restaurants and home delivery.<\/p>\n

Drama and I are going to bare our minds on this topic and as usual we are always at loggerheads but hopefully we pass on a message or two.<\/p>\n

DRAMA<\/b><\/p>\n

First of all, I wanna say I am very glad to be here again with you guys, I always look forward to our lively and educative debates on this segment. Now, to the subject of the day…<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If you have followed my arguments on this platform, you realize that I tend to be a little unorthodox in my thinking sometimes. I do not follow the bandwagon, and that is because I believe that matters of the heart should be treated with some discretion and maturity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Marriage, as I have always maintained, is a delicate affair that if not handled well, can be bad for the parties involved. Before you set out to find a wife, your target must be someone who you can align with, someone who can understand you; someone that can make you happy and someone who thinks in the same direction as yourself…every other thing is secondary; including their cooking skills. The reason I say this is simple, you can easily work on a bad cooking skill, but you can hardly change a bad person to good one per se.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What I’m trying to say in effect, is that it\u2019s not excuse enough to dump a woman who is endowed with a host of good qualities simply because she is lacking in the kitchen department. If you truly love this person, then nothing should stop you from settling for her. If her cooking is so bad, then why not help her be better by teaching her yourself, if yours is good enough? Or better still, get her professional help. The primary thing in marriage is understanding; once you have it with your partner, you’re good to go or would you rather trade good manners for a good pot of soup? (I believe no sane man would). I love the way men from more civilized parts of the world think; always putting their emotions and feelings first… if they want you, they do, and ain’t nothing changing it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I believe I’ve made my point, when it comes to marriage, love and understanding should always come first. Do not be like Easau who traded his birth right for porridge. Do not trade your ultimate happiness and peace for a pot of soup.<\/p>\n

SHAWN<\/b><\/p>\n

Inasmuch as I tend to agree with Drama’s opinion that cooking shouldn’t be a criteria for marriage but I still think its importance shouldn’t be downplayed. Back in the days, it was a must for women to know how to cook and not just cook but cook tasty meals but these days anything goes; if you find a lady that can cook great it’s just a plus.<\/p>\n

However, I don’t think I can actually settle down with a lady that can’t at least cook up a little something and isn’t even ready to do that, and I only have three reasons why I don’t entirely agree with Mr. Drama’s opinion.<\/p>\n

First, we all know that there is nothing like a homemade meal; homemade meals never taste same as hotels and restaurants, it’s totally different and all men enjoy it. Feeding off hotels and restaurants continually doesn’t seem like something that would last on a long term, you might get tired of it someday and it might tell in that marriage. Marriage isn’t just an ordinary relationship; having a girlfriend that can’t cook isn’t same as a wife that can’t light a cooker.<\/p>\n

My second reason is the children; I think it would be a thing of joy seeing your little girl learning how to cook and learning it from her mom not from a maid. Also, children tend to act like their parents; if a mom can’t cook, that trait might just rub on to her daughter and that wouldn’t just seem right; in a normal world, every mom teaches her daughter to cook.<\/p>\n

Thirdly, a wife\u2019s meal is one done with love; it’s different from a maid’s own, totally different. When a wife\/mother cooks, the home is happy, it even creates this bond between man and woman that’s why men always creep around the kitchen whenever their wives are in the kitchen; so imagine if that setting doesn’t exist, drama<\/b> and chaos might just be what would be found in that family. Like my late granny used to say “cook a man a good meal and you might as well win his heart”. It’s really easy for a man to say he doesn’t mind if his wife can’t cook but in all honesty it’s not easy to be in that situation.<\/p>\n

That’s our opinion on today’s edition of Elcrema Sunday Love Special; we hope you enjoyed our argument; but seriously, would you marry a lady that can’t cook? Let’s know what you feel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
