Yet, I am incredibly confused by the fact that so many people from my generation (Gen Z), especially (but not only) boys, don't even see a point in learning how to cook.
As my English teacher once put it:

But perhaps I just enjoy cooking way too much to really understand the struggles of people who don't

So yes, you're absolutely right - that's just my two cents.
