You have strcuk chord with me..

i am not sure if it is a housework phobia or a phobia of being judged by my housekeeping skills.... or just total annoyance and avoidance of doing something I detest... or perhaps it is that people tend to judge whether a woman is a good or bad woman based on how neat her house is... men are judged more fairly on their abilities and intelligence.. but women are judged by the most tedious and annoying of things..

but the one thing that really aggravates me is when others obsess over my housekeeping or lack of it... I get really angry... and anxious... I have even said to friends.."Did you come to visit me or my house?"

I even still to this day at 41 wish I were born male so I could have the overly generous excuse that I am the wrong gender to be good at such tedious, boring, monotonous, annoying tasks...

When I decide to do housework I need to do it quickly and without thinking or planning the minute I start to think about what I am doing I become very anxious, get lost in my thoughts, and often panic...

My partner must have everything done neatly and in order with lots of planning.... it makes for some interesting situations...

Sometimes I just go out and let him do it... other times I end up in tears becaude I hate it that I am expected to be so good at such tedious crap just because I am female...and he just simply does not understand what deep horrid feelings arise out of such simple tasks...

I am not sure I will overcome this one phobia... this one major problem...
