New study shows a woman's place is no longer in the kitchen
For decades it has been told that a women's place in a relationship is to stay at home with the children to carry out all the domestic chores. Mankind has stereotyped the female sex to be the carer and to know her role in the kitchen to cook and clean. But according to a new survey, the responsibilities of genders are evolving over time and now more men are doing the cooking. Findings by a frozen foods company called Ross Burgers revealed that millions of men have been inspired by cooking shows on television to improve their culinary skills.
The study found that 44% of mean now prepare all of the family meals simply because they love cooking in comparison to two thirds of women surveyed who looked upon cooking as a chore and despaired doing it. Years ago it was customary for the man to be the breadwinner, to go out to work and to bring home the bacon. It was the female's job to ensure the house was spotless, that the kids were fed, washed and dressed, and that food was on the table when the husband came home.
However, times have changed and society's attitudes have progressed and it is very popular nowadays for the female to earn more than her offspring and to finish work later; so the male often has the house cleaned and he prepares tea by himself. The survey of 2,000 people showed that long gone are the days when it was the woman's function to slave over a hot stove, clean all the sides and splashbacks down and wash the entire cutlery. And industry experts claim that the results can only be deemed positive for making family's lives easier across the UK.
Men may be becoming more curious about baking and making fine cuisine but it will always be the female sex that has an eye for interior design. Home decor can always use a woman's touch so despite the fact that macho chefs like Gordon Ramsay are fuelling the trend of male cooking; it will always be the lady who can transform a kitchen from drab to chic. Further findings of the study exposed that one sixth of females admit that they never cook at home merely because they don't know how to and so the majority are dependent on their partner's culinary abilities.
It was only people aged over 55 who enjoyed cooking the most, insisting that they love spending time in the kitchen. The survey also found that Liverpool has the least confident cooks and that the majority of inhabitants in York actively enjoy cooking. If you enjoy devoting a lot of your spare time in one room of the house, make sure it is stylish and the decor is how you like it to be comfortable. A few little furnishings such as a coloured glass work top, fancy salt and pepper pot and matching tableware can really renovate a kitchen to make it the heart of the home.
