To be a partner in life A supporter A friend A lover To contribute to finances and paying bills, and be responsible with spending and knowing what is available To create a safe space, emotionally, where they can be free to be themselves, and express who they are, whenever they want or need To make a comfortable home, that is made for and adapts to the needs of both people To be a good listener; but not in a passive way or subordinate way, but as an equal; sometimes this means shutting up to let the other speak, sometimes it means calling them out on b. s. (both should do this equally) Cooking can be done more by one person or another, or equal, but if she likes to cook more or is better at it, then she should take on the task of making the bulk of the good, healthy, tasty meals that they eat together for dinner; sharing good food can be a surprise that keeps things fresh and inspired, and nourishes the body and the soul Domestic duties can also be shared, but depending on his workload, and his contributions to the relationship, she *may* be better suited to stuff like taking care of the laundry (which is very prone to shrinkage, if guys don't understand women's complicated array of fabrics, etc.); and she might be more detail-oriented, as far as recognizing what household items you're both running short on (women tend to do 80% of the domestic household purchases, and I know I always know exactly how much toilet paper, shampoo, milk, etc. is left in the house.) But I am not saying women should do the lion's share of the housework if both parties are working. There's always been an imbalance about that.  There's other domestic stuff that comes up, like fixing broken mechanical things. I suck at that, big time. So I'll try to see why something's not working, but I do expect guys to open things up and probably end up being the one who gets it working. My brain is just not good at that mechanical stuff Many of these things are not 'roles' so much as using one's innate talents, or knowledge they've accumulated before getting into the relationship I'll leave the kids thing for others to discuss. Not my realm And lastly, and I know some will disagree with this, but I see women as the more emotionally-sensitive ones, and that sensitivity and care and understanding should be used equally, incorporating the feelings of both people (and really all people in their immediate family, etc.) Some guys will say that some women are cold, and far from assuming this role or purpose, but I think with all the intricacy in communication and interpersonal relationships that females notice, that this should be applied constructively to others as well. Considering peoples' feelings and unravelling the intricacies of how and what people think, comes naturally to me, so I will not ignore this for the sake of being selfish or trying to stack the decks in my favour, satisfying my own needs always first

Everything you say men do. At least good men do is what good women do for them. Its just a little different.

Today we too financially take care of men. But it's more in a way to help work so men don't have to financially take care of us. It's team work instead of a man being the only one contributing.

We also make a point to do special things for them to make sure they understand we appreciate them.

We keep an open ear so they can talk about their day and decrease a bit of stress they are under.

We compliment them, take them out, cook them candle light dinners sometimes.

We make them feel respected and make them feel appreciated for their strength.

We connect with them giving them intimacy and love.

And for men and women it's not that its our responsibility to do these things. It's that we love each other and want to do these things for each other. When you love someone they don't have to expect things. Because it just naturally happens anyway.

Proverbs 3111 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.13 She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.14 She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.19 She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.22 She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.24 She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.25 Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

its there job to keep men on there toes, why do you think we are so frustrated with women? there here to make us be better so we dont slack off if you want proof of that just look at half the men who dont even think of women , there either gay or have a feminine life style so they dont have to work or do anything to challenge there selves.

and they actually hit women more than men who are just ass holes and at least you know where ass holes stand you can never tell with the feminine type guys we have out there today.

ineedatan · Answer

Personally, I don't believe men and women have any "set roles" aside from our biological abilities. Instead, men and women determine their roles for each other based on each other's needs and personal strenghts.

Now I understand the more "traditional" views, such as men are providers, initiators and women are nurturers and often take care of the home. However, personally, this answer has some roots in traditional gender roles which are tossed out the window as we've come into a more modern take with culture. I only see these gender roles in small communities and generally among traditionally minded people, as well as commonly with those whom are religious.

I personally don't confine myself to traditional roles and perhaps it's due to my non traditional upbringing 🤷🏻‍♀️. It really does depend on individual strengths, conveniences and abilities. A partnership works best if each partner brings their own natural strengths to the table. (Giving a married relationship example) If the man feels very comfortable looking after the children, cooking and cleaning and the woman is a career type person - then why can't they agree to these roles as long as they have a happy relationship?

Anonymous · Answer

Well, I am a firm believer that all those things are not a man's responsibility, but merely something that was instilled in men's heads growing up over the years.

However, even with that said, I appreciate it when a man takes on those responsibilities because it makes me feel protected and cherished.

While I also believe that it is not a womans responsibility to do anything for their partner either, I still do what I can to ensure that my boyfriend feels cherished, loved, has dinner cooked, comes home to a clean house, feels welcomed and appreciated for everything he does for me and the kids. Even if that means that I need to take a step back and give him space after a rough day. These things dont always come easily because I am admittedly a terrible house wife, but I still try and he still appreciates my efforts.

Now, the reason I say that I do not think it is a responsibility, is because I truly do not look at responsibilities the same way most people do. I am responsible for my children. I am responsible for my own happiness, because after all, I am the only one who can alter my own happiness and it's all based off choices I make. I am responsible for going to work on time. I am responsible for paying my bills. Those are responsibilities. Treating your partner with love and respect is not a response in my eyes. Protecting a woman is not your responsibility. Those are things that should go without say IF you love that person.

Men are not the only providers for their family or protect or take care of..
That is what a partner, SO, spouse does for one another...
Maybe the real reason relationships are failing these days is because people keep thinking men and women keep trying to separate responsibility or actions by gender instead of just something you do as a person who cares, loves, supports the other person in a relationship...

Alfleria · Answer

Instead of responsibilities, I see it as showing my love.
I make him feel loved, respect him, take care of him, all of those is not because I’m responsible of him. But because I love him. Enough to make me shower him with all my love by doing those things.
I think this is where the difference between men and women lies. Women usually more invested in feelings. I know I did. I put way too much sometimes and got hurt in the end. Anyway, that’s not the point. The point is you should tweak your way of thinking a little bit. After all, love is what keeps us going.
By loving yourself, you decided to work and earn living.
By loving your partner, you won't think any of that action as responsibilities. Make sure you find out their love language though. Because everyone have their own love language.

xKaytie · Answer

Looking after your man and loving him,
Whether it be a long day at work and you let him have alone time or make him a meal, maybe just let him relax instead of pestering him, etc. It's the small things that will make him appreciate you.

He's stressed? can't help you with the chores? That's fine, how about you look after him by completing all those and tomorrow you can spend some time together after everyone's relaxed and the house is clean.

Most of my boyfriends didn't want gifts or money, or even sex as a treat (we already kept up a good sex life, it should never be a 'reward') they just wanted either a little more attention, cuddles and loving, or time to wind down and relax, and for me to take on some issues to unburden them for awhile.

FudgePops · Answer

A woman is to be a man's help mate.

She supports him
Inspires him
Nurtures him
Respects him
Should they have children, she is the mother of his child, she nurtures his children.
As a wife, she creates a loving home environment by decorating, cooking, cleaning and organizing the home.
She is a sexual being and assists him in experiencing sexual pleasure
She is giving and uses her intuition to give her man great advice
A woman is the gatekeeper of civilization
As a wife she is loyal to her man and there for him when he is down and there for celebrations
A good wife will motivate her man and always see the good in him
She is his warmth when the world is cold

Chiefbenttwig · Answer

Women are the keepers of the home fires. A woman's responsiblit is to give her husband emotional support & understanding. She is also responsible for balancing the home life & work life.
Most people (mainly men} believe that a woman's so responsiblit is to give up her sweet spot when a man wants or demands it. & To cook clean & basically be his personal slave. Men with this type of mentality need to be dragged out in the middle of the street & shot. Why you ask because they are usually narcissistic, sociopath, and psychopath. Get mad if you want but that is my two cents.

WindAtMyBack · Answer

It doesn't matter as long as she's contributing something. If she sits on her ass all day doing nothing then it's a problem. She needs to be doing something useful.

If both people put in a reasonable amount of time, and the things that need to get done get done, then all's good.

There is never a lack of things that need done. With a decent relationship, it should just work out. There should not be any need for "You do this, I'll do that."

Too many people think it terms of "I did this for you, so what are you going to do for me?". Wrong. It should never be thought of in those terms. You just do. She just does. If for whatever reason it seems too lopsided, then something needs to give. But it should never come to that point. It should not ever need to be mentioned.

hellionthesagereborn · Answer

She doesn't have any. It use to be that she was chast and loyal and nurturing/loving and would take care and maintain that which he provided i. e. cook and clean etc.

Now they have no responsibilities, they have managed to push all of them onto men and men have allowed it. Women have no accountability, not responsibilities and no desire to acquire either of those things. This is the society we have created and I don't see it changing (its not entirely their fault, they have been pampered to the point were they have never had to be responsible, they have never had to think about any one but themselves and they are never punished for wrong doing so how are they going to develop into functional people without all of that? Its just what it is.).

vivmatt · Answer

Men also need to be cherished, cared for, meant to feel valuable, supported, protected. These aren't gender roles. These are the basics of being a good partner in general

Unit1 · Answer

Good question, right? Why aren't people asking themselves that some more and keep being screwed over by the users and low value trash humans? The good looks and heart's desire doesn't compensate or excuse their shitty behavior. Not towards you or anybody else.

If most of what you get in return is crap, then you're with the wrong person and breaking up is recommended. Stay put and my sympathy is gone. And I dare say, that this is more often than not the case.

Yes, dump 9 girls/guys consecutively until you find the 10. th one, who is into YOU and not your money, house, car, vagina/body, whatever and doesn't generate drama out of thin air.

If men have responsibilities towards women... then what are the responsibilities of women towards men?

Find a girl like this one

And don't lose her.

Nalix · Answer

I think the responsibilities of men and women to each other should be as individuals. As in, men should have no responsibilities toward women as a group, and women should have no responsibilities towards men as a group.

As you start to know an individual, either in friendship, or dating, you should start to establish responsibilities to each other. Both men and women should ask what they expect from each other, and agree on those expectations. They will naturally vary from couple to couple, or group to group.

I think that both men and women should stand up for themselves and expect more from each other, but only what others are willing to offer. Relationships can and will form where men and women find common ground with each other.

Wild_princess · Answer

If he is loyal and dedicate himself to her... than her responsibilities are to love and cherish him till the end of time, to also dedicate herself to him, be always with him in his ups and downs, stand with him in his sweetest days and darkest nights.. and finally understand him more than himself afterall men can be very emotional creatures.😄😄

purplepoppy · Answer

To make sure you guys wear clean up under wear rather than turning inside out. To be the one to say "shouldn't you leave that to a qualified dentist". To be the one who knows pizzas aren't square meal because they come in a box. To be the one to ask for directions when your lost. It's impossible for a man to tie something down without saying "that's going nowhere" and a woman's to say "are we sure".

jsincal · Answer

First responsibility of a man towards women, is to allow them to be who they want to be. And if you’re a father you should teach this to your daughters. A woman was responsible for you... your mother.

Otherwise, no one owes you shit.

Unless you find someone who fully wishes to be your “equal”, then marry the girl, And live in equality.

Have you heard the quote behind every good man there is a good woman. This means that the woman feeds the soul of the man so that he wants and is protective and chilvarious towards her. How come you say? Well the woman represents a care giver for him. One similar to the mom but different because she can give it to you when you ask for it. But your mom can't.

Browneye57 · Answer

Guys are much more simple. They need:
1. Sex
2. Food
3. Love/respect/attention

If he gets all of these he needs from his woman he'll remain forever true and in love with her. If he doesn't, he'll generally wander off looking for one that will.
About two thirds of women get this. The rest either don't believe it, can't be bothered, or simply refuse.

silvermoon84 · Answer

I think we owe y’all the same things we expect, which are to loved, cherished, protected, taken care of and yes, provided for since it’s more acceptable for women to be breadwinners now too.

Anonymous · Answer

I don't think you really need to do this for women nowadays most women are independent.
However, if you do this out of love and affection. Then why are you asking to return the favor?

See, if you don't want to do this in first place, then please don't get into a relationship.

The problem with most men is, they would SIMP around a girl and initially that girl won't even care about their existence they would still act desperate and probably creep around her and she will eventually show pity on them and get in the relationship.

So, In general, most men are so desperate for a relationship with women for sex (I am being brutally honest here).

If you don't like women then stop being so desperate to get a girlfriend.

Nobody gives a fuck about you!

They have more option than you do, so fuck off!

ambivalence · Answer

Men definitely are not responsible for women. Women can be the bread earner and a men can be a single parent. But every so responsibility you listed should be for both genders. In a relationship it’s important that both parents respect, support & uplift each other. And of course basic things which are not counted as basic things like loyalty, trust & truth..

certifiedalphafemale · Answer

We're in the 21st century and 3rd millennium now so it's most likely the same. Though there are still men who are traditional and prefer to do those things and women usually are the ones respecting a man's ego and support him. This is not to say that nowadays we don't do that, but our responsibilities with each other are getting more similar as time passes by.

simplelikeme · Answer

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's a good question and a simple answer for it is...
It's basic common sense, but women don't want to fulfil their responsibilities in a relationship. You get all these women out there that say they want equal rights as men but when it comes to the punishments and consequences to their actions they don't think that they should have that. They want the same rights but because they have a vagina and boobies they think they should be treated special and they should not.

Women have no responsibilities toward men. Everything they do is "above and beyond" and everything you do is something you're supposed to do.
