Yes eating out is an Asian thing but you are not Asian and as such your girl friend should be thinking of your cultural needs. Does she worry about what you think or want? Doesn't sound like it. Does she say "lets find a place that cooks a full English?" No, she just pouts and wants her Malaysian Chinese food.

Todays "metrosexual man" seems to have been bitch slapped into submission by his female partner and will do anything to appease them.

Just glad I grew up in an era where girls were girls and men were men. Any girl who could not or would not cook and look after her man simply never found one. Any man who would not compliment his girl on her cooking lost her pretty quick.

I do not see your relationship lasting long if you continually have to find ways of appeasing her. Sorry to be blunt but this is a forum after all and you have to take the good with the bad.
All good. Do you yourself cook and/ or enjoy it? Why should a person with a vagina fulfill that role?

Sad state of affairs. In the days...sigh....a girl friend prided herself on her looking after her man. Her mother would insist in her proving what a great catch she was.
a girl who can cook is a very attractive trait, especially to someone who loves food, ie. ME :D

Barang, you look at pretty much any culture all over the world, men are the hunters/breadwinners, the females do the cooking, its human nature, why do you think TOGs view is so out of the ordinary?

A pretty woman makes her husband look small,
And very often causes his downfall.
As soon as he marries her, then she starts,
To do the things that will break his heart.

But if you make an ugly woman your wife,
You'll be happy for the rest of your life.
An ugly woman cooks meals all the time,
She'll always give you peace of mind.

Say, man?
Hey baby!
I saw your wife the other day.
Yeah?
Yeah, and she's sure is ugly. Ha!
Yeah, she's ugly, but she sure can cook, baby!
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

I don't think it's out of the ordinary and that's unfortunate.
Looking for a life partner because they can cook....?
Ffs.
