Do girls have to be able to cook?
Not necessarily.

Cooking and doing housework is not a girl's business, but it must be learned in a patriarchal family, especially if there is a younger brother or brother. Boys can enjoy the love of their parents and grandparents, but girls have to learn housework and do things from an early age.

In the traditional culture of China, women's lack of talent is virtue, while being able to do housework is a model of virtue. Whose daughter can do the wife's work well, clean up the house, serve the food well at home, and anyone who comes to propose can step on the threshold. Although this statement is somewhat exaggerated, it basically describes that what women need to learn in China traditional culture is not poetry and songs, but housework. Only by knowing housework can they keep a good home after marriage. Men are the masters outside, and women are the masters inside. This is a tradition.

Today, the tradition of ideological emancipation has been weakening. The more developed areas emphasize the equality between men and women, the less they emphasize advocating that girls must learn housework, while boys can not. In fact, the core of this topic is not that girls must be able to cook and do housework. This is of course a life skill, but they never ask their younger brother to do housework. Obviously, this is a problem derived from the idea of son preference, which has been staged in many regions and families.

In fact, it's good to learn to cook and do housework. Learning these things is not for others, but for yourself. Parents' doting on their younger brother will only harm him and make him a hedonist, leaving parents with no basic life skills, but you won't rely on anyone, and you can support yourself with one hand.
