I'm the 50/50 guy.

Wife and I split all household duties 50/50 and all expenses 50/50

Seriously, please tell me why I am a piece of shit because of this??

How is 50/50 for everything "weird?"

We believe in equality in our household, equal work and equal share of expenses.

How much did you pay her for the physical toll of carrying your children and birthing them?  I hear surrogates and donor eggs can run into 6 digits, whereas sperm donation costs just a few hundred dollars.  I hope you appropriately compensated her for that so your marriage could remain "modern" and "equal".

Did she breastfeed? That's at least a 2-3 hour day a job.  Not to mention more physical toll.

Point is-  it's impossible to keep things "equal" in a marriage even in these modern times.  I'm glad I'm not married to you pp, you sound like a pita.[/quote]

She did breastfeed.  And during that time period I certainly contributed more on the other items in the house like shopping, cooking, cleaning.

certainly you aren't suggesting that women only provide child and breastfeeding for financial renumeration?

Or that the joy of being a mother and the unique relationship it creates with the child especially from breast feeding isn't a reward in its own right?
