[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Number 1 reason is likely a wife who insists the husband doesn’t do it well enough/correctly/quickly enough. Recall the wife who was mad at her husband for washing tissues. If you don’t like how I do it enough to cause so much controversy, you can do it yourself.[/quote] I agree that sometimes it’s that women need to accept different ways of doing, but… [b]in so many cases it’s that the task isn’t being DONE.[/b] It’s not a different way, it’s the wrong way. Swishing a dirty rag in a dirty pot full of dirt water isn’t going to get that pot clean. Whenever DH and FIL do the dishes, crusted food is left sitting on pots and pans. In order to cook again, those items need to be rewashed. Unless you’re cool with old ground beef or fish skin being in the new food. Just one example, but the stereotype of the hapless man is often true. Ante both of them (and so many other men I know) willfully not cleaning the pots well so they won’t be tasked with dishwashing? In my FIL’s instance, volunteering quietly to wash the dishes and not fully washing them… for 30 years? Why?[/quote] And how do you know that? Based on personal experience of multiple marriages? Women complain more, a lot more but that doesn't mean women do more. [/quote]
