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

I think I could handle cooking even after a hard day's work, I do it now. I also enjoy cooking for other people so it's no biggie. Laundry ain't nothing, so I could do that too as long as he doesn't leave his mess on the floor and puts it in the hamper. Cleaning is more 
, I don't really clean now but that's because I have a small apartment. Cleaning two people's mess though? That's something I gotta think about.
But if he fixes things around the house, brings the groceries in when I buy them, and takes the garbage out every week; that'll be enough incentive for me to clean. I would also like if he did all the driving, I hate driving.

Men: outdoor stuff- mowing lawn, taking car of the cars(maintenance), taking out trash, fixing any house issues that don't require a license
Women: household stuff- cooking, cleaning, laundry...if circumstances like a unusually long work day/week come up, then the husband can pick up the slack if needed
I feel what the dudes are saying. Men and women can't have it both ways when its convenient. Roles are set in place in every team for a reason, and both sides have to keep their end of the bargain.
During relationships, I didn't cook, rarely washed a dish, had laundry done and clothes ironed as usual protocol. And these women worked/were in school full-time.
Peace

I'm not messy so I don't have to do deep cleaning like that. All I have to do is wash dishes, vacuum, sweep, and mop a little.

Nothing's worse than a dude who won't pick up after himself. Yeah if the wife is a stay at home one she should do all of the chores, but if both y'all working, both y'all need to do the chores. Resentment will start to build up, cause both y'all tired from working 40 plus hours a week, and the house is a damn mess cause one person is slacking. Then one of you will start to hate the other because a pile of dirty dishes is just sitting there and lack of sleep is clouding your judgement.
I get disgusted just seeing litter in the streets. Like who does that shyt? I've walked 20 minutes from my train stop to my apartment holding trash sometimes just because I forgot to unload it at the trash bin.

Action expresses priorities
lol exactly. How difficult is it to throw the trash down the chute and you don't need to do repairs every day.
I take care of my place anyway, as far as cleaning...but helping with the maintenance during the week would be nice...at least pick up after yourself...if your clothes need to be washed, put them in the hamper and not on the floor (cause that shyt is nasty - I don't like messy people) and if you get home before me, you can start dinner or unload the dishwasher and prepare your own lunch for the next day (unless you like what I'm eating, then I can prep for two...it's not that big of a deal). I don't mind doing laundry - don't really like when people do my laundry anyway...and I don't really wait on people...if I see the light bulb is out, I get on a chair and fix it. If my car needs gas, I take it myself to fill it up.

I hate that so much, but it's cause I got this thing where I can't stand having anything in the sink it got to be empty all the time. Or, the trash always gotta be new every day. Okay yeah it's OCD.
One of my brothas is like that and I always yell at him whenever he's around even though he's like 20 years older than me.
Yeah I'd be a bit creeped out by anyone doing my laundry. I've been doing that for myself since I was 9 years old.
We'd have problems, girl. LOLI hate that so much, but it's cause I got this thing where I can't stand having anything in the sink it got to be empty all the time. Or, the trash always gotta be new every day. Okay yeah it's OCD.

I'll slice your head off in your sleep. At least throw them shyts in the dish washer so don't nobody gotta see that.
What the fukk is it with you women today?I'll slice your head off in your sleep. At least throw them shyts in the dish washer so don't nobody gotta see that.
How you go from a dish in the sink to cutting off someone's head???
Everything escalates so damn fast. There's supposed to be a natural progression!
