Italians have a thing about sticking to tradition, esp when it comes to cooking. To them, it's an art and it should be treated with respect. Op is right. Women in general these days don't cook because they're too busy with their lives to be decent wives and do a good job when it comes to feeding their families. They're the same bitches who spend all day running here, there and yonder,but when it comes to feeding their families, they forget how. And you know who you are, girls.

Don't lie about it.Just admit it. You don't care because you feel like you're too damn busy. If you are, cut back on your activities and focus more and learning how to cook proper meals.
