[quote=Anonymous]I would feel uncomfortable being expected to do another adult's laundry. When I was SAHM, I did tend to do DH's laundry, but our laundry was intermingled and I just usually was the one who happened to be around to take care of it. He also is normal about re-wearing things, uses a towel multiple times, etc. But then there were occasional days DH would do the laundry (including mine and the kids'). Same with things like making dinner and emptying the dishwasher - whoever was around would just do it. I was home with a toddler and an infant at the time, so I worked plenty hard being their caregiver, and taking care of the basic house needs. Maybe it would be different if the kids were in school, but I now work FT, and DH manages to do his own laundry, despite having a very demanding job (more than my FT job). It seems weird to expect your partner to do it for your, although you can certainly throw his clothes in the wash here and there and help fold things if you have downtime. [/quote]
