Does society support the wife who neglect the home.?

Question

It seem that society support the working woman who don't want to help inside the home too. Also don't help with the household expenses. What is your oponion.

Answer 1

I married a lazy SOB after 30 years I'm divorcing him, it suppose to be 50/50.

Answer 2

A working woman who doesn't help with the household expenses??? I think you're confused. I work a full time job, contribute 50% of my income to my fiance and I household bills, I am a full time student, AND I keep my home virtually spotless. I hate such generalizations about the working women of the world. Society does not offer any more support to working women then non-working women. It is just becoming more acceptable to be a career woman these days.

Answer 3

My question is what are you doing all day while she is at work? If she is working, more than likely she is contributing to the well being of you family and home, otherwise where is her pay going? There are 2 people in a marriage and society supports everyones choices, why else would both partners have to work to even have a home. things should be 50/50, good luck

Answer 4

Marriage needs to be as close to 50/50 as you can work it. If the wife chooses to work, and the husband works as well, both need to do household chores, and both need to contribute to the bills...whichever one makes more money taking on the brunt of that responsibility.

If the wife the works and the man stays home, it is his job to care for the home, and she should help out a little on days off to give the man a break. Vice versa if the woman stays home and he works.

Answer 5

I don't think society really knows what goes on behind closed doors. If a wife doesn't work and doesn't contribute to the household, it does seem strange. But there's two sides to every story.

Answer 6

Marriage should be an equal proposition for both. She should help with house work and expenses. I know I always felt it was my obligation to split expenses, but I worked and did all the household chores as well, even to taking the garbage to the dump, so it really does go both ways sometimes.

Answer 7

My opinion is that your statement is a generalization and is quite ignorant...why do you assume that working women don't help with expenses or upkeep of the home? I do both?!! Actually I carry 85% of the load for upkeep of the home and 100% of the load for handling the finances while also maintaining a full 40 hours a week job outside the home!...so in essence I work 3 full time jobs! My husband is definitely helpful around the house but because of the stress of the profession he is in I try my best to carry most of the weight for him....so he doesn't have a stroke...because I need him!!

Answer 8

Make a list of the responsibilities. Calculate what she helps with and what she does not. Tell her until she starts paying half and not using all of her 'working girl money' on nails and other stuff for herself then she needs to contribute to the housework. Even if she does give half.... you both have an equal responsibility to do work around the house. Talk to her, and work it out. It can easily be done with 2 responsible adults.

Answer 9

sometimes society is only for women no mater how many kids you have or your situation your in.
Women has all the power unless the man can prove you are neglecting the household .

Hire a family law lawyer (a female one) to help you with this.
She can get a judge to understand your side of this matter.

Answer 10

In a grown-up mature relationship the home belongs to both people and should be maintained by both people.

The only time she should be responsible for the home is if there are no minor children living there and she is at home all day.

Answer 11

I am married and working but I still go home and do soem cooking and cleaning. My husband contrinutes in other ways. He takes care of the car, bills, trash and helps with the cleaning on weekends. He is also in charge of researches needed for when we want to go on vacations or buying something.
