Depends on individuals. It is more of a misnomer and a easy way out for the girls today. My GF insists to cook every meal, whenever we eat at home, even if she has a professional life as busier as me. I am not a bad cook either, but still. It takes lot of convincing at times to let me atleast help her in kitchen when I see that she is really TIRED, but hardly 1 out of 100 times do I actually succeed. BTW we individually earn more than enough to make the other sit at home with no compromises either on outings, travels, expenses, etc etc. (touch wood).
