Women work as well. 

Its unfair for a woman to slave away all day at work and then slave away when she gets home.  A man should help out where he can.  Whether its looking after the children while she cooks.  Ironing or whatever.  Its a partnership not slave and mastership.

Sorry.
There are people who are willing to do your chores for a decent pay.

Is that better?

personally, i don't like house chores. argh!!! and to get a maid too from stories is not the best option. the best thing i think that can be done is to get a help and comes everyday, does the chores and leaves till the next day or it can be for only a few days of the days. that might work

Here's another way to put it: leave it to the professionals.  It's not exploitation, it's business. Wink

If he can't afford a home help, I see nothing wrong in a man helping out with the house work.

Hi,
It is good for a man to be involved as it shows that you care for your spouse. If you believe in culture which did not support it then you will receive the result when your spouse starts complaining of stress.

Yes a man should be involved in chores now.  In Nigeria most guys frown when you call them to help you do a bit around the house. But here,it's done more willingly. My hubby bathes my older child,and feeds them both most of the time. He picks up after himself too. Cheesy
I'm so sure if Nigeria,that would not have been the case. It also brings a couple close too-i think. When you are in the kitchen together,or bathing and dressing the kids together and all of that.

Sometimes too,he JUST has to do it otherwise, hunger go tear im belle Grin

why nt, when God say we should  be helping ourselves. Men have more power nd muscles to do house chores. Infact we women should only cook and leave the rest to you guys except taking care of the baby.
