In fact, most of their husbands like to cook and do as such. But I guess complementing your partner and not assigning typical gender roles to every category is bad.
I think the paradigm you're missing is the "career woman" who has rejected cooking to avoid those typical gender roles OR out of that lazy, disguised as urban, lifestyle. The "not cooking" variable is just a sign of bigger issues.
If you're a person (man or woman) and you don't know how to cook, that doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad partner. It's why you don't know how to cook that is the real issue. Lots of guys have met women whose refusal to learn how to cook is a red flag for deeper issues.
If you're a guy and you refuse to help with "women work" because of the status perceptions (or, again, laziness), then that's a huge red flag the same.

This. I load the dishwasher in our house bc 1) it’s like a real life game of Tetris and 2) apparently my wife either never player Tetris or was terrible at it

Imagine being a woman and not being able to cook because you have a “career” that’s really just posting stuff on Facebook at a car dealership

As with all other things in any equal partnership, a good marriage depends upon both parties communicating well when one or both feels unsatisfied with the division of labor.
I do dishes.
My wife does dishes.
I do laundry.
She does laundry.
I cook.
She Cooks.
I wash her car.
She removes the suitcase worth of random trash and vacuums the floor.

I agree with you 1000% SFP. We’ve come a long way since 2005.
