"How come men are expected to help with the laundry but women aren't supposed to help with the lawn? Have you ever
heard a guy complain that his wife doesn't help him mow the lawn? Or clean the gutters? Or clean the basement? Or help
with the renovations? "

Glad someone brought this up. We divide up most of the chores by inside and outside duties, and that works good for us.

Most of the whiners who complain about men not helping with laundry and cooking neglect all the time most men spend taking care of the yard, the gutters, the painting, the cars, etc. I will say, though, that my wife works at least as hard as I do, probably even more so. But she's not a whiner, either.

OK, so I don't cook the meals, but does renovating the basement count for anything? Oh well, nobody's perfect.
