Is a woman's job only at home?

That used to be where I was at , doing the house work while my husband worked. You would not believe how many people still believe thats the way in Louisiana. I was ok with doing the house work but now that Im working we share a bit :) I still do most :) but I guess I have more training

I feel that like megs said, the housework should be divided equally. Most men don't understand what hard work it is staying home and caring for a child 24 hours a day. I actually had more energy and felt like I had a lighter work load when I was working outside the home!!

I do think that if you have kids then one parent should be at home until they start school but that doesnt always have to be the mum. But if there are no kids then both the man and woman should go out to work and both take responsibility for housework, well obviously it's their choice if they want one to work and one at home, but I think if you do have kids and choose to stay home with them then whichever parent goes to work should still help at home. I get really upset when my partner doesn't do anything at home. If he's been at work all day, that's one thing but when he's had a day off or only working for a couple of hours I don't see why he shouldn't help at home. Saying that, even if he has been at work all day, I've usually not stopped from before he leaves the house until well after he comes back so I get frustrated that he comes in saying he won't do anything because he's been at work all day.

It frustrates me beyond belief when people adopt this attitude. I think it is so archaic and outdated it just isnt funny. My partner has a full time job, he's a builder and I stay at home and look after bubs, thats my full time job. I do the cooking (only because I dont want to end up in hospital with food poisoning lol) but we share equally the house work. It really annoys me when people think that my partner should be able to come home from work, relax and not have to do anything. My job is 24 hours, I dont get weekends and I dont think I should have to do everything. Whats your opinion?

Nope I dont agree
