In doing my research for this piece I have found that throughout history, most of the great chefs have been men. It’s not that women did not possess the skill, artistry and creativity to become a great chef, rather that they were most likely prevented from so becoming that by the allowances of the times. But my point is only that men have the inherent ability to be good cooks. Whether they chose to do that over playing football does not mean that if they were to suddenly find themselves as single fathers that they would fall down on the job and their children would go hungry.

Men have been authors of some of the most beautiful poetry and novels, music and movies throughout history. It must be accepted then that the capacity to feel and express emotions, to translate those feelings and to enable others to touch their own or to communicate with one another, is within most men.
