What do you consider the husband and wifely duties of a relationship where both parties work 9 to 5

If you both work you both should do your part around the house. If one cooks the other should do the dishes. shyt works so much better when one person isn't doing all the work. Resentment starts to happen if one person does all the work.

This. If we both work and pay the same bills, we're doing the same amount of housework.

I'm not trynna have my wife in some full time job. At the most, some kind of part time gig. Her real job is to hold the household down when it comes to keeping it clean, the kids taken care of, and food ready. Husband duties I say make the bread, and conduct the hard labor around the house like fixing stuff and yard work...

:camby:If you cant keep up with the housework, you might have to quit or work part time.

:camby: Hell no. How am I supposed to take care of myself without a job? and If I'm working a full time job, I'm not switching to part time for anyone.

He can just stop being a lazy pig.

Basically men want to be able to do nothing most of the time except work while women have to do stuff everyday including her job.

Yet you men really think women are desperate to get married. Sounds like you guys will have it easier.

in our house we delegate housekeeping and chores based on our weaknesses and strengths, for example:

i'll do the shyt outta laundry but suck at putting it away so the dude does that

he sucks at small detail work so he'll generally clean the bathroom/kitchen/living room/bedroom but i make sure to pick up stray items, clothes slung about, vac up the cat hair and dust bunnies, clean grime from fixtures, dusting, degreasing the stove....scrubbing "special" dishes

i do majority of the cooking cuz ima fukkin bosshog in the kitchen but babe is also handy on nights when i'm balancing full day of work + homework and/or afterhours work (ima personal assistant) and he gets home hours before me he'll either make a simple man meal (breakfast for dinner or our play on hamburger helper) or get everything started because we meal plan in advance....i'll prep dinner the night before and put in freezer bags and email or text him instructions for what to do when he gets home so by the time i get home in the evenings dinner is ready to ride

ya'll nikkaz need teamwork to harmonize the workload in your homes...keeps us from coming to words over one of us feeling like the other doesn't do enough...oh and it helps a great deal to use a visual aid like a calendar on the fridge to account for daily stuff like garbage, dishes, cleaning our cat boxes, making the bed...like an accountability thing

:patrice:If i have to cook for myself, clean up after myself, shouldn't i just be by myself? I dont need any help with the bills, if my girl aint domesticated why would we ever live together?

You can do what you want, breh. If your girlfriend doesn't mind working 9 to 5 and cooking and cleaning for you while you lay around like a pig, that's her business.

I wouldn't do it. If I'm working just as hard you, there's no way in hell I'm gonna be the only one doing housework. :manny:

How does this not apply for a woman?


Does having a penis mean you know how to repair roofs and whatnot? What are these ongoing major construction projects y'all fancy yourselves being 100% qualified to do alone that you can't help clean up a place you help make a mess in? I need to know.

i hate that these cats stay acting like major house renovations a) occur on a frequent enough basis to excuse them out of regular housework/chores and b) exclude any input from women because apparently we don't know how to do anything except cook, dust, and squeeze children out from betwixt our thighs
