That meme is missing a shorter track for women and a chain around the men’s ankles. Those would account for DEI.

I'm a teacher. If you're at a decent school it's pretty sweet. I'm on Spring Break at the moment and have a roast in the crockpot and laundry going. If you plan your time during the weeks everything comes close to getting done.
Some people just want to make normal life look so much more challenging, but have no idea how good we have it. Did you wake up warm and dry, have you had the chance to eat today, and do you have a job to go to? If the answer is yes, you're doing better than a vast majority on the planet.

And $50 says her apartment is a complete mess because she does little to none of those things "standing in her way"

It’s accurate for a lot of women. Both spouses have to work full time because they don’t want to settle for less, they have kids and the husband thinks the wife should do everything his mommy did when he was growing up. Even though the situation is completely different for his wife.
So the wife works full time and has the bulk of the duties managing the household and kids.
Happens more often than many think.
You're getting overwhelming down voted but that's more of a reflection of the makeup of TD than anything. You're right though, and unfortunately the women submit to it often times for various reasons.

You can tell a woman and a non track person made that…..
They do have it easy being in the inside lane.

Why is it relevant that she's a teacher?

That completely opposite with our household…
My wife and I both work in the medical field, she’s management and I’m pt care. She works 5 days a week and I do 3 12 hour shifts a week. Me being off more, I do the laundry and cook. My mother did all of that when I was a kid with a stay at home mom.
Your theory is shite…

A washer and dryer can only hold so many clothes. A bigger family will increase the frequency but it's still the same task each time. Put clothes in washer, put clothes in dryer, fold/hang clothes when they're done drying and put them up.
Not necessarily. This is going on the assumption everything can largely be washed together, at the same frequency, or duration.
That shite piles up quick when you have the uniform that can't be washed with anything else, delicates that need to soak/gently wash/hang dry, some clothes that are dirtier than others and need special treatment.
I'm not saying it's rocket science but it isn't always as simple as wash/dry/fold.

That illustration is correct. There is absolutely never, ever anything standing as an obstacle for men to reach their goals.

I mean, our household splits things up pretty evenly because we both work full-time. And don't have any problem picking up each other's slack depending on what's going on at any given time.
He is correct in that it's not uncommon to come across someone who, despite both parties working, expects the household chores to be treated like it's a single-family income situation. But that's a larger issue than just chores. If you can't respectfully divvy things up based on workloads and what not then it's a respect issue IMO.

Should've had a pic of mimosa brunches, concerts, and bar in front of her because you know thats what she is doing in her free time - not ironing or cooking

She seems fat

Difference is I’m also a coach which means I don’t get summers off and I’m at the school until 7 or later over half the year. She can pick up around the house

Yep. Completely beneath men to share in keeping up the house

Your experience and relationship with your wife is definitely indictive of society at large and completely disproves what he said

My parents were teachers, and they had roughly 4 months of the year off, including holidays. Still holds the same concept today. They knew what they were getting into when they chose that major in college, and they enjoyed it.
As for myself, I share the chore load with everyone in the house. We all pitch in.
