And Your Point Is?

Chef Ramsey has discovered that women can't cook! Well give him a giant soup ladle for a prize! So What!

'When they eat, they cheat - it is ready meals and pre-prepared meals all the way,' he said in the Radio Times.

Ramsay, 38, who has an award-winning female chef at one of his restaurants, is known for his fiery temper as much for his culinary skills.

'I've been visiting ladies' houses up and down the country with our film crew and you would be amazed how little cooking the girls are doing,' the chef said ahead of the launch of his latest television show.

'Seriously, there are huge numbers of young women out there who know how to mix cocktails but can't cook to save their lives, whereas men are finding their way into the kitchen in ever growing numbers.

Well, lots of young men can't fix cars, make household repairs or even adequately mow the lawn! The world has changed. Modern conveniences have changed norms for both genders. So, what's his point? I guess I'm really not young anymore but I was the only one of my roommates in college who knew how to cook full course meals and am one of a few in my current group (OLD like me) who can cook. Also, being able to prepare a meal doesn't mean that one can cook. I figured that out in college when kids were gobbling down dorm food like it tasted good because it was better than what their mom's made (but was like dog food to me).
