some husband don't, and i think is not fair, coz both husband and wife should work out everything together, not just throw everything to the wife with the reason "im tired back from work", some women out for work these day, and they still take good care for the family well and tidy.

Definitely because I believe in egalitarianism in a marriage. I am sure there are ways to create a win-win situation for both of us regardless of as a dink (dual income no kids) couple or one of us is the breadwinner. We can always work out a schedule or roster or other kind of arrangement. As you know, when men do house chores, it can be sexy. If we want to have a great time in bed, why would I want to wear you out with mountainous chores?

You shouldn't only blame the man in these types of situations. There are women out there who prefer doing the cooking, the cleaning and taking care of the kids. Some people still view things like they where thirty years ago.
Personally, I'm not for it either, since I'm a major work-a-holic, but if I was a husband....I'd do some things around the house, not only is a tidy house funner, not only is spending time with your kids worth it but I also find it's a simple way of showing appreciation.
If both people are happy....well....let them be.....oh well.

Though i'm a female, i feel that even if the females are a housewife and only the husbands go to work, they should help out too.But since they were tired from work, light ones will do.For example,folding the clothes.it's not so difficult for them right? It's simply sitting down and moving your hands.
That's just because the guys think that housework are forever so easy to do.It's juz like working and equally tiring!Well, it's only a comment and i hope guys who view this reply take no offence.Simply ignore this if you hated what i say.It's true though.

This is a woman 's point of view, if the wife is stays home ,she do all the work,and serve the husband who brings the Bacon. If both of them works ,they have to split 50/50 housechore and children's care. If the wife is helping paying the bills..That is a fair deal.

Yes, I am not married, but I am doing the houseworks myself now as I stay alone. But I don't cook. Regardless whether both are working or not, I believe a couple should share the housework together. That's more like a house.

I'm a woman, but let's pretend. I'm not very good at housework, so while I would attempt to help out, you'd probably stop me and tell me to get out of your way. That's what my husband does. As for children, I prefer the company of adults. Children make me very uncomfortable. I wouldn't know what to do, so yes, I'd leave it to you. And of course, if you did not have a job, then I wouldn't even bother trying.

It depends if the woman is working or not. If she is a stay at home mom, she should do everything while her husband works to support them. I stay home and do all housework, cooking, laundry, cutting grass, planting gardens, shoveling snow, etc. My husband works and provides for us. A man can't come home from work and work at home if you are home all day. If you work too, he should pitch in some and help you. You do need to discuss it and come up with an agreement.

My husband and I both work 40 plus hours, and we share the housework. I take the majority because he has a physically demanding job, but he does what I ask him too

I would help some but honestly I'm pretty awful about keeping up with the housework for myself. I don't think you want to marry another woman anyway tho.

me and my husband are both working. i do the housework, cleaning, laundry, cooking. but he helps me in washing the dishes, taking out the trash, when my son is still young he washes my sons baby clothes. i do think that both should also help each other in the house work. even hubby is the only one working or both. it helps in bonding your relationship also. sometimes the three of us are cleaning the house, me, my hubby and my son. it makes me feel happy
