Cuz when I take a nap someone needs to work the kitchen

I'm on a lazy flex, I'm on a lady flex

Weird study,.. I don´t buy this.

Why.. i believe that we humans have messed our noses and are unable to pick the right spouse. We have so many chemicals on our daily lives, we use deodorants, parfyms, aftershaves, body lotions with scents etc that we are alienated from the basics. Our ancestors picked the right ones cos they ( their noses ) were pleased with the scent their spouse naturally had.

Nowadays women are picking wrong spouses also cos of using birthcontrol pills, study at Liverpool proved that female who used birthcontrol pills were attracted to guys who actually were not so fertile and had genes that was similar to them. And females who did not used birthcontrol pills were attracted totally opposite type of guys. When first groups offspring was genetically weaker ( autoimmune ). When taking birthcontrol pills in first group ended, females in this group were not any more attracted to their spouses like they were and break ups.

Bad choices we make for the future generations...

Those Capitalists wanted all people to work for them.

There will be someday that 6 year old kids will work for them

They will give them candies to do so.

ETA : I will help my wife if I had any energy to do so.

While I love to cook and keep a clean house, one will note the silence within. My dear Love is wise and lives in his own abode, where he can make as big a mess as his heart desires. One thing I will not tolerate however is an attitude of machismo within range of my hearing. Please keep in mind, boys and men, the kitchen is where the knives are kept, and more than likely, we do know how to get rid of scraps as well. I know that these days it would seem that all girls know how to do is burn water and order take out. I'm all for equal education. A girl should know how to change a flat and a boy should know how to make a proper dinner. In this day and age, the door swings both ways.

My husbands job is to provide while I raise the kids......if he needs help I'm there.....if I need help he's right there.

There has to be mutual respect for one another no matter what....no relationship lasts when both sides are free loading off eachother.

And it should be opened by the woman in the kitchen while she makes dinner.

I don't need a woman to be in the kitchen all the time. Just at dinner time. And I'm not talking about microwaving some frozen nonsense.
I'm talking about seasoning, green peppers, red peppers, whatever you enjoy. Be creative, surprise me.

Don't burn the house down though.

We all know people lie about their happiness. Any study that uses emotion as "proof" is not scientific at all.

I don't think it matters who is doing what, as long as everything is getting done and everyone is content.

The correlation between splitting chores 50/50 and divorce is probably because these couples feel more like roommates than partners. They aren't doing things to make a harmonious household, they are just doing things to get them done so the other person won't complain about it. Resentment, anger and grudges arise, intimacy decreases and divorce follows. *shrug*

I tend to think the key to a successful relationship--the key to a successful live-in relationship, occurs when the dude feigns household incompetence. Just cook a few times--say bacon and eggs. Get some of those cruncy, artificial bacon bits, crack a few eggs in the skillet & then pour the bacon bits on top and voila--cooking incompentence she'll probably never forget or forgive you for.

Next, do the laundry. I mean there are so many ways you can do the laundry that'll boggle her mind. Eventually she'll momentarily forget that she loves you and tell you these magical words, "Stay out of the laundry room or I'll choke you."

Oh man, this is one of the more fun OPs I've read in a long while.

"The figures clearly show that “the more a man does in the home, the higher the divorce rate,” he went on."

Of course he's going to say that after writing a book about equality.

How about

"The figures clearly show that “the less a woman does in the home, the higher the divorce rate,” he went on.

He's chosen his words to make men look unwilling to do housework. What a lot of #

Ah- the fun of shoving everyone into a box via a "survey". How is it (like on this thread) a lot of these surveys are chewed up, spit out and then Schmitt upon? Who makes up this stuff? And how is it, they do NOT get the responses like on this thread?

Curious and curiouser...

My wife watches house hunters and all the rest of those house type of shows. The computer is 15 feet away from the TV so I watch these shows kinda through osmosis. Everyone one of the shows the women either loves or hates the kitchen or wants it remodeled. There is the odd man that focus on the kitchen but it is mostly women. My wife wants to remodel our kitchen and I couldn't care less about it so I would agree with the premise of the OP. There are exceptions of course.
