Your right it depends. Here I do the laundry but should my husband want or need a particular piece of clothing he washes it himself. Honestly all household chores are split evenly here no one person does all the work

In my household... I have my 12 year old do his own... so that he doesn't have any excuses... as far as everyone else goes... when we have a full load ... someone does it... its an equal partnership in the entire family... even with the 12 year old.. if he doesn't have enough to fill a load.. he'll ask us for some of our clothes...
Its all about the family working together... not a certain "place" a woman or man should be... we should be over these types of steroetypes already.. but guess this is america and some ppl are still stuck in the old days... whatever happened to ppl just doing what needs to get done instead of worrying who's gonna do it?
yes... some things have changed but not all ppl have

Everyone doing their own laundry can be a waste of time and energy on the washer.
I think it should be everyone doing the laundry.
Whoever is there at the time it needs to be done. Share it!
Men didn't do the laundry in the "old days" because they worked outside the home, and women stayed home (thus doing the laundry). Now, since both work outside the home, they should share the responsiblities at home.

It depends. Ask any married couple and you'll get a different answer. More women than men still do laundry though. Sadly, they also have to work a full-time job and try to take care of children, prepare meals, keep the house clean, run errands, take care of hubby's needs, kids needs, job needs, everything but their own needs..................................
Times really haven't changed much for the better, at least not for most women. While most men still go to work, come home and relax, women are still running around like crazy after putting in their 8 hours at work. Some are more fortunate than others and have a husband who contributes and children who are responsible. Not many though.

I am sure you both wear clothes and get them dirty... It is a shared role between husband and wife. If one of you is not working, I would say, sure throw in the laundry, but if you are both out there working, take turns ....I think you are probably doing all the chores...... Maybe he had a mom who did it all....Perhaps he needs a few lessons.... Suggest it.... show him how.... If he refuses, leave his laundry alone and let him know you are not willing to do it all..Marriage is about sharing and that includes household jobs...

I think if the wife doesn't work she should do all the laundry. Of course the husband can help out sometimes, like mine does.
If both husband & wife work they should both do all the household chores.

I brought up my kids to know that there are no boy jobs or girl jobs. Everyone pitches in. My son is grown up and married and does laundry and loves to cook. Both he and his wife do it all together......it should not be a problem.

which will be a difficult one to grant a unmarried answer to yet truly demands some exploring. In theory you're trying to adhere to the acceptable thoughts of coping with negative circumstances, properly mannered, civil, calm etc.... yet at the same time as it comes each and each of how right down to it if the issue concerns are provoked to the component that they modify into burning difficulty concerns then the survival instinct kicks in and that i continually choose that once that takes position that I honestly have not made an complete and utter catastrophe of subject matters with my reaction. i'm conserving that I emotionally placed across myself, would prefer to might want to cry, would prefer to might want to rant, would prefer to might want to confront and then blow off the steam depending... no count number volume no matter if it really is a few component unhappy like maximum cancers or a coronary heart attack ending yet yet another life then for me in my view it really is internalizes. I take that to coronary heart and it adjustments and consequences my each and each theory and action yet below the exterior and that i do no longer administration, it really is an instinctual reaction telling me to stay my life as actual as i will thinking you'll suited be lengthy lengthy previous in a at present day. keep smiling decrease again at you....:)

We're married with 3 kids...I usually do it, but he often throws in a load, too. As soon as the oldest is a little older, she will learn to fold it. And we all put our own things away (except for the little ones...). It is a group effort.
