Here's one thing a boyfriend is good for - they can take the skin off a chicken because the slimy makes you gag a little.  Then they can tell you if it's really Mojo chicken or not, because it doesn't taste like it did the last time. 

But I guess a knowledge of poultry and the seasonings it might be cooked in isn't the best reason to rush out and find a man.  It seems a little fowl.  (I know.  I'm very sorry.  I couldn't resist.)
