[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I get together with my mom and sisters when we veer into relationship talk there's a lot of talk about how women always do most of the work, no matter what, and you have to tell them what to do etc. The thing is things are truly 50/50 when it comes to things with me and DH childcare and household stuff. I don't have to pack for him and tell him what to wear or what to feed the kids etc. I don't say anything, but wondering if I should because my nieces are often around during these conversations and I don't want them to think that's the only way for a relationship to be. At the same time, I don't want to cause drama and I grew up with all this stuff and ended up thinking differently. So it's probably okay to continue to remain quiet and sip my drink.[/quote] Why not say how lucky you are that your dh is wonderful and doesnt do that? Are you saying it isnt their reality?[/quote]
