Get a job outside the home. Put the kids in daycare, and get a maid. Both of you pay daycare 50/50 and maid 50/50. Yes, he will earn more than you on average- that's why women are generally resentful of men. |

Sometimes men won't do their part, but its hard to understand what they have to do unless you've been in their shoes. They do different things and have different things expected of them. In general, men and women both face a lot of challenges and neither one has it easy. |

Well... if you are a stay at home mom...then I suppose most of the house work will be done by you. Your husband goes out and works to bring the money home. Perhaps you should get a part time job, you know...just a few hours a week to help out financially, and you should definitely talk to your husband about the chores at home.
Everything should be 50/50. Let him know how you feel, give him certain responsibilities around the house, but at the same time not so many, I'm sure he comes home tired from work too. Communication, is my best advice. |

i dont really know that much about being married and all but maybe ur husband is just plain lazy. I mean not all men are bad. I know a lot that fixes everything that goes wrong in the house. Plus me i have to do everything because my family does not speak english. So things that require english (which is pretty much everything) i have to do.
Dont get it confused not all men are bad |

thats the exact same problem my mom goes through! i guess because all they feel they have to do is work and come home and that the woman does everything else,originally i guess thats how it was but these days things are different, maybe you should just sit down and discuss with him how you feel maybe let him be in your position one day with the kids and responsibility..he might get the picture..idk? |

Because women are stronger, a man couldn't handle having kids. Behind every strong man there is a stronger women! |

I totally know where your coming from....and about once a month I blow my top and my husband spends the next week trying to repair the chunk I took out of his a$$...I honestly don't know what the answer is - it's like they will help for one day and think that saves them from helping the rest of the month....I have learned to just speak up and speak LOUD...so far it's worked. |

I don't know but they do. I have to resented my husband for this reason also. Even when he wasn't working he always had a million excuses for not doing anything! Sometimes though he was great. I think they just don't realize what needs to be done, or they are just lazy most of the time... *sorry, guys I don't hate you all* :-) I think a lot of us women would like some help once in a while. |

Talk to him, tell him what you just said in your question.
Men only 'have it easier than women' if the women let them get away with it. |

A GENTLEman does not do that. You plucked the wrong type apparently. |

My fiance and I have been together almost 6 years and it's always been "If you want me to do EVERYTHING then I'm not working" And when I was working we shared our tasks...Now that I'm not working anymore I do it all...and I should. So if you're not working you should do it all too...if you are working then...idk... |

I could be worse you could do all that and work too, complain now but statistics show he'll die 10 years before you. (presumingly from working to support the family) |

If you don't work, I think that's fair. If you do, then tell him he should be helping out, you aren't his slave.
My fiance cooks all our meals and is responsible for cleaning the kitchen, vacuuming, garbage, and lawns. I dust, clean the bathroom, and do the laundry. We don't have kids yet, but we will have shared duties when we do. |

hmmmmm.......men dont have it easier.....your just a whiny b*tch. Get over it because im sure your husband is busting his @ss just as hard |

I think I have it easier than my husband... He's in Iraq (man I miss him!!)
-Are you a stay at home mom? If that's the case then I would assume that is YOUR job. If your husband works all day long and you stay home then it is expected that you take care of the kids clean the whole house and have dinner waiting for your man when he arrives home from his long day of working/supporting you financially..
Now if this is not the case and you also hold down a Real Full-time job then you need to sit down and have a talk with your husband. He is taking advantage of you and does not respect you...

Tell him to sharpen up. Or just stop doing his half. Only do 50% of the work, let the house get really disgusting. I think it's ridiculous that this man still lives in the cavemen times. You deserve more, by NO MEANS am I telling you to divorce the guy. But speak to him about it, tell him NICELY that you would appreciate it if he could do fifty percent of the work.
- okay WAIT, unless he has a job and you don't, then that was already decided and you'd do more of the house work clearly.
(this could be vice versa too, ie guy with no job does more housework than his wife with a job) |

Who are you to judge who has it easier? I think men have it just as hard. |

He is only as spoiled as you let him be. Just because he is the bread winner doesn't mean he can skip doing the dishes or take out the trash. You need to show him team work before you two can make this work as a team. |

Well, talk to him. You might have married the wrong guy? |

Misconception and generalization..You should have started this questions with Why "MY" man....
I am married and my man does more house work than me..I work more than him..but everything is balance...If you do not have that in your life is because you hace chosen this life..There are men out there that do housework, take care of the kids and have more or equal resposabilites than a woman...Im sorry to hear that you are unhappy..but only you can change that...Get a degree where you can make enough to mantain yourself and your kids without him..
Good Luck |

Just because your husband is lazy it doesn't mean all of us are like that. |
