I've never seen anyone mow a garden.
And people cook for others and don't always eat what they cook. Like giving people cookies as a gift.
Has no one ever given you cookies?
Wait, you're American aren't you? FYI, in other countries people who own a house have more than a lawn, because only having a lawn is considered weird af. But taking care of that lawn is still considered a part of gardening, and mowing is part of that.
Also baking isn't cooking, they are two different things. Baking is a lot more chemistry than cooking is
What the fuck are you even talking about now? What is a book full of baking recipes called? Hint: not a "baking book."
It's not a cookbook either
Sorry, you're going with a non-English word and yet you're defining your terms in English?
Hey I translated the word as it is. If you want to suddenly change the argument from cooking vs baking to recipe books, I don't see why you're complaining.
Baking is a chemistry and following an exact recipe unless you're very good at what you do, cooking is free form and putting a spin on recipes.
No one in English calls it that. We call it a cookbook.
If the issue is that baking isn't cooking and mowing is gardening in your language, that's not how it works in English.
I do know how my native language works, believe it or not. If I went to a bookstore and asked for a "backbuch," they wouldn't know what I was talking about. What with it not being an English words.
Baking recipes are in the cookbook section.

Look, I know you think you know English better than I do, but you do not.
This is one of the most popular English cookbooks in the world. I get most of my baking recipes from it.
Here are some baking recipes from it.
Now at this point, you're essentially trolling and I think it's about time you stop.
Edit: Uh-oh, this bookstore put a baking book in the cookbook section and not the "backbuch" section!
Edit 2: Apparently neither Amazon nor Dolly Parton know what cooking is.
Edit 3: IT GETS WORSE! The famed BRITISH LIBRARY thinks BAKING CAKES is the same as COOKING!

Edit 4: This conspiracy is global in nature!

Baking! In an Australian cookbook! They didn't call it a backbuch, the fools!
Edit 5: EVEN THE FRENCH ARE IN ON THE CONSPIRACY!

Hey man, great effort, but just to remind you the OG argument was: Cooking/Gardening can be a chore and a hobby
I thought the argument was "Is mowing grass considered gardening?" If so, the definitive answer we reached was "depends on your definition of garden." There's really no wrong or right answer here y'all, language is relative.
And then you decided to make it about how baking is not cooking and how books with baking recipes aren't cookbooks. I take it this means you have changed your mind on this and maybe you don't know the English language better than all native speakers?
You're the one who pulled baking into it though? I was not required to entertain your baking argument at any point, so why are you acting as if you have the moral high ground?
The argument was simply: Cooking and Gardening are oftentimes chores that fall on women, so it's kind of interesting to see those as attractive hobbies for men. The last part wasn't said, but implied, and i hoped people would realize it themselves, but alas now we're here
Oh, I see. This has all been about sexism. My mistake.
it's fine, i should have included the second part in my original comment
