should women do all the cooking/cleaning?
no
a woman may not prefer cooking, but the man might
who should be in charge of the bills?
it depends
if the couple is a two-income style home then they should divide up the bills fairly according to income
how does divorce play into sharing responsibilities?
-the mindset of being both roles has benefits
is yardwork a "man only" job?
yes haha no
if the woman prefers to do yardwork over cooking then if it works it works
should couples "report" every purchase they make (in a two-income home)?
no
couples should trust each other to make sure essential bills are paid and that major purchases are being discussed
is the relationship always going to be 50/50?
no
there are several reasons why one partner would not be giving 100% of their tasks and so it's the other partners job to pick up the slack. It has to be balanced though, it can't always be the same partner picking up the slack
is there a specific reason men might not do housework?
yes
sometimes women are too critical and men don't want the job to just be done again. for example little Timmy's outfit doesn't match, but dad tried to help out by getting him dressed. sometimes they assume their efforts will fall short
-establishes credit for both partners
-gives a bit of freedom for smaller purchases
should you leave the dishes in the sink overnight?
sometimes on occasion so that you and your partner can enjoy time together and learn that the world doesn't end when it's not perfectly clean
