Where does the "cooking is a women's skill" meme come from? You might say that in more primitive times men would hunt the food, and women would cook it, but that still doesn't make sense because chopping the meat, preparing the fire etc are still something that women can't usually do

just because modern women (and most modern men) are as useless as literal toddlers doesn't mean it was always like that. my grandma is a walking corpse and can do rigorous food prep in her sleep, and she grew up in relatively modern prosperity. imagine what your great great great great grandma could do. she was probably more capable than you are

There's only three inherently feminine skills.
>taking dick
>giving birth
>mothering

Everything else is fair game. Sewing isn't inherently feminine, sailors need to know how to sew to repair sails. Cooking isn't inherently feminine, there's nothing womanly about making food. If you're concerned about others viewing you as feminine or the like because you cook, then you're either insecure or care way too much about what others think.

Cooking is a woman's skill comes from the 10's-70's of the last century, where women were required to cook in house while husband's or brothers were off at war. Men still cooked in the past, but it was emphasized that women should cook because men didn't have the proper skills after the war. It stopped becoming common place throughout the 70's-10's when women's empowerment became the only acceptable slogan to be tossed at relatively useless women. Women can't really cook nowadays because they had to go through college and work more than ever before.

I'm from rural poland and butchering animals as well as chopping down wood is a unisex task as it doesn't requiere that much pper body strength that a woman would have a difficulty with it. It's usually even done by teens.

The person which is most of the time at home (which is naturally the woman) will cook. Only in modernity and as a profession it's seen as a manly job, because guess what, high stress and no possibility to have a proper famil with it, doesn't invite too many women in it, when they already cook at home. You'll therefore find more women in pattiserie stuff.

It wasn’t that long ago that most women didn’t hold a job, and instead got married, had kids, and spent their days homemaking, which included making food.
Nowadays, learning to cook is something you need to do to be a complete adult, whether you’re a man or a woman. Most women don’t bother to learn to cook, though, because it’s now stigmatized for women to take traditional roles. Also why their rooms and homes are always such pigsties. For whatever reason, it’s more noble in the mind of women to be a mindless worker drone for a faceless corporation than be a loving caregiver. Go figure. Learn to cook.

Hunter-gatherer women of prehistory were actually often found with broken bones and fractured skulls consistent with trauma found in animal maulings and tramplings; the same mauling and trampling wounds found in the men of the time who died while hunting. Prehistoric humanity was actually fairly egalitarian in terms of gender roles.

The women at the time who did stay behind to cook and clean were usually mothers, who had to watch after their kids, and those who were too young or old to hunt. Otherwise, a young, physically mature woman who wasn't pregnant was capable of hunting as well.

Bows, slings, and spears level the playing field when it comes to upper body strength. Sure, a man could throw a javelin further, and a man could shoot a heavier bow, but you only need to penetrate deep enough to reach the heart when it comes to missile projectiles. Even a measly 30lb bow is enough to fell animals like deer and bison, and the difference in strength between a man and a woman becomes meaningless at that point.

My father used to take me hunting when I was 8. I bagged my first deer at the age of 11 with a gun, and took down my first goat at the age of 15 with a bow. I'm fairly certain if a prehistoric woman was trained to use a bow and javelin for the entirety of her life, she would have been a way better hunter than me even if I had access to modern-day firearms. I go hunting maybe once every 8 months. She probably hunts once every few weeks. She would be way better at it than I would be.

Nigger, a prehistoric woman was pregnant, post partum or nursing from the age of 15 to 45. They weren't going hunting. Thos broken bones could have a multitude of reasons, falling from a cliff harvesting berries, running away from wild boar attacks or even other tribes, or god forbid getting shunned or belonging to a small and dying tribe where everyone had to help to fucking survive the winter, even if that meant a misscariage or infants death. Stop listening to retarded feminist historical revisionism. All people back than where regularly getting fucked by nature and dying by it's hands.

amateur cooking is traditionally a women's job because men were doing something more important.
