where's the problem? sounds more like an opportunity to me.
if you show him - without foolishly making him feel like a useless idiot - he'll be able and willing to do that chore more often.
I think it depends on how long she has been married. We've married coming up on 39 years and our first year was quite a learning experience when it came to who does what chores and learn to do the over-lapping chores. My hubs will do cleaning and laundry. He is a great cook and his collection of cookbooks rival my quilting & craft books. Once in a great while he will have a "relaps" in memory of "how much soap" and then I know he wants attention as I can get lost for hours and hours in my sewing room. Patience!
