He ordered one, he ordered one! Have to leave now. Helping make Christmas cookies. (Sans apron!)

DW is making cookies too, but they're gingerbread, so I'll avoid the kitchen for a while.

My DH sucks at cooking

but of course I have expensive taste! He's not allowed to cook meals unless they're the kind you throw in the oven and set a timer. I am of course the one that cleans as well. He does help with tending to my chickens and other pets. He could probably get good at grilling but he'd rather play his ps3 and have me do it

In my family all the woman are good cooks!

I think the most unmanly thing he's done is take a vehicle to get fixed by a mechanic, especially since he's an electrical/mechanical engineer at ORNL!

Shhhh... but in this house, my husband is the cuddler. HE can't cook, he's not the most reliable for cleaning.... and he's messed up my washing machine more then once. But he demands cuddle time and gets very emotional because I like my own space.

You know... "My side of the bed is mine... so MOOOOOOOOOVE over!" LOL

I've got to agree with Kentucky Jay... manliness is in doing what needs to be done.

At our house, I'm the survival cook-- I can keep you alive, but I can't make you glad to be alive. On the other hand, my husband is a brilliant, intuitive cook and I eat whatever he feels like putting on the table, because it's been great every time but twice in 12 years. I'd follow him anywhere, just for the food!

my hubby can not cook at all. but when we were first married, he got the idea that i might be a girly girl and went an bought a bunch of lotions and make up from mary kay (blech) the only time i allow him into the kitchen is when he puts his dishes in the dishwasher (RARE) or i need hamburger crumbled lol.

i do wish he would learn to cook.. or even clean.. oddly enough i find it incredibly attractive in a man that helps around the house... i would go nuts over a man that makes a meal! lol

some of you men, u wanna teach my hubby lol

My husband can cook some things, but the dishes... whole other story.

I've caught him painting the dog's toe nails before. The dog was a girl.

He primps more than me and can be a mirror hog. Makes more comments about his weight than I do too.

He drives like a woman. LOL So I drive when we're going somewhere. His mom must have taught him to drive, while my dad taught me.

He colors my hair for me, since I can't see the back of my head. He also does my eyebrows. Took awhile to teach him, but he's willing to learn!

All that being said though, he's still manly. Don't get between him and his tools, don't pick a fight with him either. Don't mess with his family or his property. Don't be on the wrong side of his guns or fists! Unless you're a woman, no matter how awful you are, he could never hit a woman. He just won't get the door for you any more.

I also know he's manly because he can't do laundry. It's impossible. He'll also pull wet shirts out of the dryer and wear them. He has a fascination with peeing outside. Can't ever put the toilet seat down if he pees indoors. And the way he walks, very manly. Course it's pretty funny when he swaggers in with the tweezers in his hand to do my eyebrows. Just doesn't look right.

Lol, I've got you all beat. If we are talking traditional male roles and views of masculinity. I cook, I clean, I feed the animals, I can, I make a hella mean turkey, and my wife is a man

I also change oil and tires, build chicken coops, basic electrical wiring, play with "my kids" (the herd of nieces and nephews), I can hunt and fish (no gun or pole at the moment) and I can use every survival trait I've learned in the last 29 years to bring any person who wants to fight me to their knees. I find traditional gender roles to be boring, and too much inside the box for me

besides, when your single you learn to cook, especially if you don't have extra money for takeout

And, we own a corgi and a beagle, not exactly the most "manly" of breeds
