I taught my wife the basics of cooking when we got married, but have not cooked anything in over 20 years (maybe longer). On the flip side wife has not cut grass or repaired anything in that same time frame. We gravitated to the chores we prefer and the division of labor works for us, YMMVCuriously, how many here's mother did the vast majority of the cooking in the house? About the only times my father cooked was either if it was outside on the grill or if my mother was away for the evening, in which case you could be almost certain we were having grill cheese sandwiches. He went from living with his parents to being married (with a stint in the service in between) so he never really learned those skills. In his defense, it was fairly typical for men of his generation.
I do probably 75% of our cooking.
36 years this June and neither is looking for a way out.
