I told my DH before we were married that either he should plan to do half the housework or we weren't getting married. Stupid him, he chose to get married. It's been 30 years and I haven't cleaned a bathroom or cooked a meal in all those years. Those were the tasks that feel to him, among others. I am not particularly grateful for this - I grew up in a house where the boys were expected to do as much as the girls, so I just expect it. We both work FT so I don't understand why he wouldn't have to pitch in as much as me around the house.

I will admit that he doesn't always do his chores on my timetable but it's better than doing them myself!
