Finding a man that does everything?
December 9th 2008 10:49
Have just had sometime to visit other people's blogs and noticed that Krystal had written something about hoping her husband would help a little more around the house.
I can't really say much to that because I happen to have a partner that does everything for me around the house, and I am indeed spoilt rotten.
And I know that men like this are rare so I am very happy.
Yesterday for dinner he especially looked up the internet and made Moroccan Lamb Shanks.
And then he weeded the garden and cleaned the bathroom as well as our cat's litter.
I cannot complain!
However it seems like nothing is always going to be perfect. Men like mine are probably never going to be making the buck so we the females become the main income earner. On the other hand, those who are making the big bucks are never home to help. (I trend I've noticed so far comparing the different relationships I have came across in my adult life)
So, what is it to be? I don't think it matters either way as long as there is a compromise. It's pretty much a matter of preference and priorities don't you think?

A lot of the responsibility for changing attitudes falls back onto women. I remember hearing about this woman who did everything for her husband and then wondered why he did nothing. She had rung up the radio station in response to their 'laziest husband' segment. They picked him up and made him clean up this huge industrial kitchen. What did the wife say afterwards? 'Oh the poor thing, you scared him.' All I could think was, it's her own fault she's married to a slob.
So whether a woman ends up with a 'houseman' type has nothing to do with men per se, but rather the type of man she chooses. If she loves to play the housewife and homemaker she shouldn't wonder when she ends up with a man who puts his feet up when he comes home from work.

The wisdom of experience, I guess.
