    Do you lazy bastards help cook? Or even help clean? I bet your spouses hate you guys/gals cause ya'll rather pick your nose while watching sports all day and night. Can you look at yourself at that toothpaste splattered mirror in your stanky bathroom and say you actually help? I would keep writing more but going to sleep while the old lady finishes folding my laundered boxer briefs. Sorry for the hardons and wet vags due to that last sentence.

    I once made pancakes and they were generally accepted to be good enough

    Women brag about multi-task ability...... so, do multiple tasks then !!


    Seriously though, I always pull my weight because I'm fair and unselfish. But trust, relationships are the female's advantage moreso than the man's. Women mostly get their way, and most guys would rather hit eject and be single. Dating is much more stressful for females and there are advantages in the courtroom when they get you locked in.

    "Vags" as the plural of "vag" just doesn't feel right.

    Think I do enough. Help with laundry, dishes, etc. I'm the only one that does the lawn. Plus I'm the one that handles paying all of the bills. She's amazing with the kids (stay at home mom) and does dinner on most days. I don't mind cooking (I actually enjoy it), but I normally don't get home until 6:30 or 7.

    The nanny is heading back to Mexico end of month so may have to pull some weight until we find a replacement. Trying to convince the wife to go au pair this time, will post pics of them cooking and cleaning.

    My 13 year old cleans the kitchen daily. He doesn't get an allowance. He makes commission. He also mows the lawn weekly. The 4 year old feeds the dogs for .25 a day. Raising these kids to be proper capitalists. No hourly wages for them.

    We're both retired, so we don't do a damned thing. Our Labradoodle weighs 75 pounds and pulls herself around the house and yard well enough. Sounds ferocious if something suspicious is happening outside. Works for me.

    I love (not really) all the erroneous assumptions in the OP:

    1) that most people live with a significant other
    2) that men are slobs and are lazy about household tasks
    3) that today's women are somehow good at keeping the home clean and tidy (can you say oppression? :D)

    Oh and to the first point, this:

    "the Harvard Joint Center for Housing Studies wrote on its blog that 28 percent of households are now single-person. The percentage is only slightly behind the most common household type, married couples without minor children, which reportedly makes up 29 percent of households."
