I believe that most men, but not all, think that women should do it all. I think that women and men should work together, and if you feel Strong enough about having him help, you should stand your ground. tell him that it isn't fair, and he won't find a woman out there that doesn't feel the same way, so he might as well work with the one he loves before he loses her. good luck

The early years, where women work in the kitchen and men was the bread winner of the family. But time has change, and women step out from the kitchen, and out into the world working for a living.
Both partners should split the household duties in half. You get up in the morning, time to grab a cup of java before leaving. then if you have kids, you hav e to rush them around, then drop them off at school or get them on the bus.
Then get to work, do what you have to do there. Then get home , fix dinner, make sure kids get a bath, make sure they do their homework, and etc. Then you look at the house. how messy it is. You stand there, and the house seem so long and so wide. Like it going to take you forever. Plus you are tired on your feet.
Whoever in the household, should help out with the house hold. Make the kids clean their rooms, make sure they get toys from the stairs. Have bf/hubby/fiance dust while you are sweeping. He can wash dishes, while you are making up the bed.
Don't put everything on your self. You can't carry all the load. If they mess up, they should clean up after their-selfs.

Yes, professional women can seek help from their men for any of the household chores......from cooking to laundry.....doesn't mean all men are respectful and loving and will help take up the slack......but the question can be posed. I know a family where the woman works......FT professional.......and her hubby is a "stay-at-home" hubby.......he does ALL the housework.....she never has to lift a finger at the house, other than feeding herself.....

My hubby and I both work full time, and he works days while I work nights. We split the chores, because he likes having a clean house as much as I do. He helps a lot--doing laundry and dishes and mopping floors. Has an unexplainable aversion to dusting, but everything on the coffee table, albeit dusty, is always perfectly aligned! lol I've told him he should run a Hubby-How-To camp. He's the best!

I think now days, both husbands and wives need to work, so they should share the household chores; cleaning bathroom and tending to kids and helping getting dinner(even just to start the dinner) so we can finish.(my husband has help start dinner a few time, not much but I take what I can get).
try ASKING him to do the things you would like him to help with: say honey, could you please start dinner for tonight, I would appreciate the help. (see how this works) have something simple that men can help with. they ike simple things. and then when get home : give him a kiss and hug and say: thanks for helping this really helps me, and go change and help him finish dinner.
I started doing this a little bit and I think this is why husband helps a little more than before.(been married 16yr).

You are a working girl then get him off his dead *** to split those chores up. Enabling men will just make them lazier
