Women should cook, clean, do the laundry and other housework

Okay, I'm not a man, but yay!!!!!!! It seems as though you've realized something that many men still haven't come to understand! I don't mind being the one to do all the "womanly" things around the house, but help is greatly appreciated.

Let me first congratulate you. You're learning rather fast but got some way to go. Share with the chores, the cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. You have to remember this. The happier she is the happier you'll be. If she's feeling miserable, you'll wish you were in a concentration camp being tortured by anyone but her. ‹(°¿°)›

I think it is the mark of a true man if he can look after himself, if he can not, to me it is not a wife he is looking for, but a mother substitute and psychologists such as Freud would have interesting things to say blessed be, keep on posting

I agree with you that we men must share our work with our life partners in every possible way and I think in this way our bond will only increase with each other.

I'm not a guy, but if all I had to do was the cooking, cleaning, laundry etc. I would be a very happy girl. If I wasn't already happily married, I'd sign up in a heartbeat :)

Both of us are teachers. So we both work at home. Some time she cooks and some times I cook. Our both the kids love receipes of we two. Whenyour earning are low and if both are working then why only woman should work? Both of us do every and any work related to our family. We are happy with this.

Hooray! I love to hear a man say that. Good for you. Independence is wonderful, isn't it?

Not to mention, treating your lady right makes her WANT to do things for you. I'm glad to see you've matured enough to realize that a relationship is not the same as slavery! Work on the entire relationship and together it becomes one wonderful experience!

With the stereotypical mindsset, we used to think that a woman should provide all the feminine housework jobs for a man.....as you said you as a amn can do all those chores, you are absoutely right with yourpoint. men are looking for a woman who can satisfy all their household chores including rearing after the children but on some point, have you ever thought that they are actually looking for a housemaid that could bear their child and eventually take care of their children for the rest of their life?

Well, I consider myself told!!! I had you down as Mr Neanderthal, with your pockets full of Pit Bulls and your wife dragging the next Firkin of Newcastle Brown in for your evenings television viewing. ;) lol Isn't it nice how we are all apparently so PC? Caring sharing, independent and loving Mylot scribes. Where are all the U.K. Tykes gone? Is it true that somebody laced a factory full of Bisto with female hormones? That would go some way to explain it? It's got so bad, we don't even hear the word "Chick" no more lol Well Mr Hassanchop, I gladly apologise, and would happily share a sinkfull of washing up with you any day...The Newky Brown is still on offer is it? lol

Yikes. At least you are learning. I do all of those things because I am a stay at home wife and mother right now and I choose to do them. But I gotta tell you, if my husband "informed" me that I was gonna do those things, he would sure be learning to take care of himself in a hurry. He helps me once in a while if the baby is being a bear and I just dont get to something like taking the garbage out or sweeping the floor, but for the most part all of the house stuff is mine. And trust me with 3 dogs, a cat, a 4 month old, and a husband there is more than enough to do.

I definately agree with you. It's nice to know you can do everything you're spouse can do. They'll love you for volunteering to do the dishes or what not.

oh my god i can't belive that there are persons that still belive that a womans place is in the kitchen or at home staying with the kids .that is so lame and tipical for you guys to think.i think that a man should share the house work,think this way you will have much more time to spend togheter and if you help her around the house she wouldnt be so tired.i think a woman should be treated as youre equal.you now women have been raised since littel this way because if you could all remember littel girls shouldnt play with cars or robots they only have to play with dolls and cooking toys,girls should never play with football its a stupid mentality.practicaly they learn littel girls what to do for when they grow up as if a girl couldnt play with a ball its totaly unfear but theres nothing we can do about it

Women is not a slave, they are not required to do all the housework by them self in fact the housework is a shared work. The word house mean everyone that in the house has the responsibility to do the work. Women should be treated equally as men and nowadays alot of women are working performance are on par with mens. Women is a companion that you love and not a maid . if you want someone that do all the chores for you then you can just hired a maid. No women should be treated any less than men. Anyway that is what i feel, if you are not agree with it doesn't matter .

I wish my husband agreed with you, atleast to some point, I mean I don't mind cooking and cleaning, but he fails to realize that I can not manage to get everyting done all the time while I am pregnant and have 2 kids clinging to me 24/7. I know that since he works outside the home, and I am home all day with the kids I should do laundry and cook and clean, but sometimes I need a little help around the house, or atleast with the kids. The only time that we have to spend together is the rare occasion that he is actually still awake after I get dinner ready, feed the kids, give them their baths, get their pjs on them, brush their teeth, and get them off to bed and settled for the night, usually he is asleep by that time, if not though I will blow off doing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen and my quiet time to spend time with him. I think that we would have more time if he would help out, maybe help with 1 of the kids so I could get done faster, or do the itchen for me or something. I only wish he agreed with you.

Congratulation! You are truly independent. This must be a tremendous boost for your self esteem. The tasks that you listed are human tasks of everyday living and it is so important that each and everyone of us can look after ourselves. You will be cherished and loved and respected by your girlfriend and wife. It is also fun to share the tasks. Another bonus is you cannot be blackmailed ever by a girl who says I will do your laundry etc etc if you do etc. etc.

my husband still exspects me to do these things. I do all of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, run around, bills, and take care of the kids.

I agree with you. It is my belief that men shy away from housework not because they are MCPs n\but simply because they are unfamiliar with it and they would not like to fumble when they try and be laughed at. Women should encourage men to take up tasks one by one and not hand out scathing or 'giggling' criticism if the task is not well done. You know for most men their mothers are the reason why they did not get into housework. So my request to all young mothers out there: Please encourage your sons to do housework even as they grow up.

1 part, agree with u and the other part, i don't. I don't think that just women should cook, clean, do the laundry and other housework. For me, u want to live with someone, yet u asked her do every housework. U love her or not? It better for u seeking a maid if u asked her do everything. So, each couple should tolerate with others. Do the housework together

One question.. are you a Muslim? Muslims mainly act this way. A man can cook, clean and do the laundry, men are not handicapped when it comes to that! If a woman wants to have a career, why not? whats the problem? In the West, women and men have same rights, and I like that. From a males point of view, I say that during marriage a compromise must be set. That is, the male and female both help each other, with the house work, maybe even with the accounts and expenses. This is the 21st century, things are changing, and this of equality is a good thing! Regards!
