as long as you teach him to wash up after his cooking!!!  I lived with a
fellow for some 20 years who was a wonderful cook and I enjoyed sharing the
kitchen with him but he was an apallingly messy cook and still felt that
cleaning the kitchen was women's work.!"

I have to take exception here.... cleaning the kitchen, while it is not
women's work, should not be part of the job of cooking, especially if what
you're talking about is cooking for family consumption.  If the cook can
spend half an hour to an hour or more making dinner every night, the least
those who eat can do is clean up afterwards.  A considerate cook will make
as little mess as possible (rather than being "appallingly messy") and does
a certain amount of cleaning and putting away as s/he goes, but the after
dinner cleanup job ought to go to those who eat!
