[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because....the patriarchy. However, he sounds below average even for typical dad curve. My DH would never pull that crap. I’m stuck with most household tasks but he does his fair share of kid work. [/quote]

Huh? My husband doesn't act like this. Not while we were dating, engaged, first married, or now that we have kids.

Gee, you think the same loser who didn't do his fair share or take responsibility while you were just dating will miraculously change? Or did you accept, work around, justify, ignore because you wanted a ring and a baby bump?

Don't blame The Patriarchtph because you married a did. My husband isn't perfect, but he's an equal partner. The same can be said for 85% of the husbands and dads I know. And for the other 15%, we all saw from the start that you picked a loser. We grimaced, glanced aside and hoped you would wise up. Too bad you didn't. [/quote]

When we were dating my BF, now DH, showed that he knew how to cook, clean, do laundry, do everything so after we got married he just continued to do it. He wasn't the spoiled frat boy type and it was clear his parents did a good job raising him. Until we became empty nesters he never did a guys trip, poker night or anything like that. He didn't take up golf until our youngest was in HS. We both worked and he has always been committed to doing his fair share...or almost! A big part of dating is finding out what is beyond the nice smile and good sex. Losers show their hand early on.[/quote]
