Classic ungrateful Brenda

That worked fine until kids, now it's like trying to manage a barn
I haven't gone that far yet, I always imagined a cordoned-off area of safety. I'm just now realising how stupid I was. I hope you all make it. 🫶

He later wrote that song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRJZfwDgNTM
This guy won an Oscar BTW.
That's great they did a callback to it. I've seen some of their stuff but not their sitcom or anything.
I like that he won the oscar for a muppet song

Today, my partner, who took a week off work to play video games, asked me if I was going to do the grocery shopping.

Hey, they took that week off to play video games, not to go grocery shopping.

So, did you?

Or you can do the parachute fold. And then fold it regular after it's a tube
I roll mine like a little sausage. They don’t wrinkle and it’s fast. Also I suck at folding.
-
At least when you kill bad guys and dragons, they stay dead. The trouble with folding dishes and washing clothes is that it keeps needing to be done.
One of these days I'm going to finally win at cooking so that I don't need to do it ever again, which will also cover dishes. Then it's time to really grind laundry until I do the same there. Don't give up!

So, did you?
Yes, I had to run an errand anyway, but I was still annoyed by the question because he didn’t know that.

I enjoy the cleaning. It gives me purpose and makes me feel useful.
You could ask far, far worse of me.

It's kinda nice if you consider the electrical box or the unmowed lawn as a dragon.
We just split responsibilities by our ability and our schedule, and communicate to get it done. Somedays I have more stamina and headspace to do certain things and vice versa... sometimes we give up until tomorrow if it isn't urgent. It'll get done one way or another, and then we can goof off a bit together.

If you said no, do you think they would have done the groceries?
Have they done the same amount of chores at home during their vacation, than they would do when they are working? I dont think one person being on the vacation should mean they need to do every chore at home.
If they have done less than normally then i fully understand the frustration, but if they have done their part, or more than that i think its selfish to think that they should be doing everything.

Given the context is clear, how come you're using the abstract pronoun?

Mmm love it when the straights air out their middle school level problems on social media

Your comment did frustrate me at first but I do think you were trying to have a legitimate discussion on the topic and not trolling. I’ve been on that end of a conversation before and it’s discouraging.
Your point about physiology isn’t necessarily wrong but I would point out that different types hunting would be better suited for different genders.
-
If you need to be able to chase down your prey, women are better suited for cardio and endurance.
-
If you need to overpower your prey, men are traditionally more suited.
I’m guessing which gender did what was probably completely dependent on the prey available in your specific ecosystem, along with local culture.
But referring back to the original topic, both men and women are capable of care-taking or providing for their family. That’s backed up by archeological studies like this one.
Women, such as myself, are likely frustrated by your questions because many men in our lives use this type of argument as an excuse to avoid responsibility. Because this is a text based forum, I think we miss the body language that would come with your trying to ask an earnest question and automatically assume the worst.
Yes very true. Body language is super important in conversations like this.
For me what felt strange is that, I am a propnent of sharing household responsibilities between men and women equally. So basically equality despite difference in capability. But then, when it comes to society in general, I don't believe in equal responsibility ie rich and privilegded ppl should have more responsibility than underprivileged. And this makes me feel like a hypocrite you know?
On one example, I am thinking of equality and the other proportionality.
I guess my idealogy is still incomplete.

Fair enough. I guess my education was of a higher level.

You sure are judgy in this comment section
It does come across a bit "how much could a banana cost" to anyone who's actually doing washing in a relationship.

Considering how much we sweat in our sleep and whatever else people do on their sheets. 3 times per week isn't really that extreme. Not that I change my sheets that often, but I really probably should.

I hear you, but other than the occasional odd-ball bandying around terms like "the straights", there's definitely worse places.

Wow. I'm sure plenty of folk here are high-fiving this guy for what they strangely perceive as just a dude living his best life, but personally I think that's selfish AF.
