Did 2 hours of ironing the other day. I’d absolutely rather fight dragons. 😁
He would do anything for love… but he won’t do that.
I did that stuff and still ended up divorced. I’m even good for basic maintenance. I wish I could stop thinking about her
He’ll do all the things that’ll either never need done or will only need done once a month.
Uh… duh? Women barely realizing this? What do you think all those air punches as we walk through the hallway are about?
Maturing is folding clothes and washing dishes
I read bad guys as “”bald guys”
That applies to everyone single or married.
What is this? I cook on my day off, and generally make sure all the housework is done.
Maturing should mean you call him out on his shit, or you leave. Stop letting men behave like this.
I’ll wash your dishes and fold your clothes, but I draw the line at fighting bad guys and dragons.
Maturing in marriage is realizing you are an equal part of a team and doing your best to share the burdens.
Generalizing negative things about men again, are we?
queue Meatloaf’s I will do anything for love (but I won’t do that).
I will do anything that sounds really heroic but will likely never happen for you baby
Why not both?
maturing is not settling for someone who won’t do basic chores, especially if you both work
Crazy hypocricy that a silly little joke about men here yesterday had everyone crying misandry but men not doing their part in the household is a acceptable joke
Go wash the dishes, your mom will appreciate it
I can take care of that dragon myself, thanks.
Why else do you think I have the Rocky soundtrack on my workout playlist?
Get you a husband that does BOTH
Porque no los dos
If you and your husband work full time and he doesn’t help you with chores he’s a bum
Yet, here I am doing the ironing and washing. No dragons to fight today.
I’d do anything but fold clothes…or make the bed. I just don’t do that.
Duck lips
Exactly. I hate dragons
Pp
Yeah she doesn’t look like she does much herself
You married a good for nothing man baby that never did anything at his parents house and expects him to behave differently with you.
Woman, see any dragons around lately? Ungrateful.
Everyone is good/bad at various chores, just have to figure out what each one of you prefers (or hates).
For whatever reason I just cannot do dishes consistently, so my wife does them. I empty the dishwasher and do laundry and take care of the garbage/recycling. She likes to mow the lawn and sweep/vacuum
Just gotta figure out a way to get the basics done in a way that maintains harmony and lack of resentment
Meatloaf said it best: “I would do anything for love… But I won’t do that”.
I feel like invariably one partner doesn’t consider invisible work the other does.
Like, does her partner do basic maintenance around the house? Lawncare? Take out the trash, break down boxes to fit more trash in, walk the dog, etc.?
Because right now I work 8 hours with a 1 hour commute, come home, feed the kid half the time, walk the dog all the time, do laundry, clean the dishes, and take out the trash. Then on weekends do more house work.
My partner isn’t employed and is a dark place emotionally, but when they complain about how they ‘were busy’ and didn’t find time to clean, I just want to be like…you’ve been out of work for 14 months, and most of the time you crash at 2, sleep till 10, then play games for 8 hours, let’s not pretend you’d be a 1950s housewife if you hadn’t had to run to the school and help for 2 hours here.
Just me venting. I love my partner, and they’re looking for work as hard as possible. Also finally got them to see a god damned mental health team and get prescribed an anti-depressant _and_ adderal for 40 years of undiagnosed untreated ADHD.
Kinda like maturing in marriage means when your wife says she’d do anything for you, she means monitor your drinking, hide the snacks, and schedule colonoscopy appointments for you, not blowjobs and cuddles and stuff?
Lmao!
No but we do wash clothes and dishes. *Your* husband doesn’t.
That has been allowed too long. Yesterday I asked my husband to clean the toilet, and started justifying it by talking about how I had done the other bathroom. And he dropped me at the end and told me I didn’t need to qualify it, he lives here too and he cleaned it.
I felt bad asking because I am not working and he is. So I’m doing most housework because it seems fair.
My ex wife made me cry when she told me I’d be a terrible father because I didn’t fold the towels correctly. I don’t cry easy. That shit still hurts 5 years later.
I’m never folding anything for anyone again.
to be honest i am not always unloading the dishwasher or sweeping floors etc.
But i am always the guy who cuts the grass, fixes most anything that needs fixing, builds rock walls, cuts, chops, stacks the firewood
This is what i spend my weekends doing… it ain’t nothin
Ah! Misandry.
Says a woman who quit her job when she got married
Do you want to live when the Titanic sinks – or do you want us to do house chores? You can’t have it all…
Oh my God, this post is so funny! Hahaha!
