I feel this is a rather archaic view you two are taking, somthing highly satisfying about cooking a good meal. 90%of the worlds top chefs are male...
Men are generally interested in food and eating large quantities of tasty food, so it follows that if you want to eat nice stuff you learn how to cook nice food yourself.
In our house, savoury food is mostly my domain, baking on the otherhand is something my wife does and does it very well.
