This thread is proof that it isnt the women who have led us astray, its weak men. Imagine bragging about how good you are at doing womens work. So many cucks.

Cooking and deep cleaning yes. Putting away no.

My wife can't load the dishwasher worth a shite, so I got her there.

I must be married to the only guy who can’t load a dishwasher

I do all of the cooking and most of the "deep cleaning". She does most of the childcare and the organizing (putting stuff away neatly).

Great complements to each other.

People are getting married/hitching up later in life which means many of us spent significant time living on our own before having a live in partner. I cooked and cleaned and kept my stuff tight for years on my own, and never had a maid or cleaners (I'm amazed at how many young people these days, even college students, pay for cleaning services for a small apt, condo or house).

So while we split duties, I'm good on both.

Laundry - I do my own because I hate ironing.

I’m the cook. But my wife is one hell of a baker.

I'm retired and my wife still works outside the home.

I do just about all the cooking, house cleaning, clothes washing-----except her stuff that she's anal about, grocery shopping and household errand crap. On top of that, I'm the gardener, lawn guy, pressure washer guy, car and house maintenance guy------------Hell of a retirement eh???

She leaves for work M-F around 7:45 a.m. and usually doesn't get back home until 5:30 p.m., so that gives her little time for the above things. Besides, it keeps me busy and off the sofa vegging out watching the tube.

Unless I’m traveling, I do all the cooking. My wife is a great cook. I just enjoy cooking and since I work from home, it’s easy for me to do.

She does the housework for the most part, though I will lend and hand sometimes.

As for laundry, I’ll help fold towels and I put away my laundry. She does the rest.

We have a crew who does our yard work. She does plant flowers and take care of them though.

When it comes to things like unclogging a drain, changing lightbulbs, a/c filters, or doing things like assembly of shelves etc, I do those.

Cooking - My ex could follow a recipe, but would only cook once a week and complain if she planned a meal and one item was off. So I did the majority of the cooking.
Cleaning - My ex didn't do it as often as I did. I like for my daily path to be clean. Counters cleaned off, wiped down, and daily waxed every day in the kitchen. Throws and pillows on the sectional and chaise back to where they go at the end of the day. Roomba ran daily and mopped at least once a week. She preferred more of a let it pile up until it's maddening then scrub every inch of the house hours before someone came over. Judging by the foyer and living space in her new place she still lives by this. She was good at washing, drying, and folding clothes. I do miss not having to worry about that as much. She reminded me of my college roommate though in putting it up. She would rather get dressed out of the clean laundry basket than put them in a drawer or hang them up.
Childcare (or pet care if any) - She was/is a good mom, no complaints there. I try to be a good dad. I am very much a tough love, "is it broke? Then dry it up" in the nurturing department though. I was the pet person, and still am.

Time Management - Me, I'm early everywhere, and prepared to go so that departure is not chaotic. She was always either late or forcing us to go wide open to get there on time. Heading to the airport at 5? Well, she can just wake-up at 3 and pack her clothes, carry-on, and get dressed. She would then proceed to stay up until 1 messing around on social media, and wake-up at 4. Always made for lovely starts to vacations, I do not miss that in the least.

Money Management - I guess she figured it out, or her new guy has because it took me a year or so when we were married to figure out she couldn't spell budget.
