[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Petula Dvorak wrote a tribute to a woman who died recently, and one of the things she/the widower celebrate is how she took care of everything. This guy was 40 when he got married, so he had handled all his stuff on his own for decades. But as soon as he gets married, he dumps it on his wife. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2021/12/13/blind-government-lawyer-disabilities-rights/?%20va._2[/quote] Bad case for your argument. She was blind. He did all the cooking, all the driving, etc. They were a team. We could all learn from that.[/quote] He shopped and cooked and called it "helping." The piece says "he drove her everywhere," but someone commented that they used to see her at their Metro stop, so no, he didn't. Also, pretty weird to be impressed that the person who can see does the driving. The mental load is about what gets foisted on one partner when the other one could do it, too, and chooses not to.
