Why should the man pay but when it comes to the house chores, they should be split up?

Question

So tradition applies only to men?

I agree. It’s just one of many double standards. Honestly I don’t know what would be classified as “daily chores.” You don’t wash clothes on a daily basis. Even then the washer is usually doing the clothes not “you.” The same w dishes. The trash usually doesn’t get taken out on a daily basis. The floor doesn’t need to be swept everyday or even mopped everyday. Women tend to see his money as “our” money but when it comes to her money it’s her money. I’ll take the at home job if she’s willing to work lol cause honestly housework isn’t that hard.

All those things should be decided by the people in the relationship. If a woman wants the man to pay, but the man doesn't want to pay, then they can either compromise or they probably won't get along. The same applies to house chores. It isn't a rule for everyone, but for each couple to decide between themselves.

Shoot where are men that help with the daily chores? I'd love to meet them 😂😂

I also don't mind paying but I never usually win that battle.

And relationships should be about balance. Not oh well he pays she cooks, clean, and pays its not a game where y'all should be keeping score. It should be a joint effort always. Gears turning together to make the mechanics of it work.
People need to stop letting outside influence, influence their brains. Just go with the flow, communicate, be happy.

Yes a man pays you if you're a prostitute.

If you have value in a relationship beyond sex & appearance then you aren't pathetically looking for men to pay you while you contribute nothing to the relationship. So yes house chores would be split up. What else are you doing with your lazy whore self?

magiusX26 · Answer

thats just one of the manyyyyyyyyyy double standards out there that benefit women.

there is also the man has to ask her out, plan it, pay for it all assuning she says yes to the date. aka he takes all the risk and responsibilty and she gets the rewards.

if she cheats or is unhappy "its his fault" if he cheats or is unhappy "its his fault"

his earnings is "our money" while her earnings is her money

she has a standard, its ok. he has a standard, he is "insecure", "controlling", "weird", "a pervert", "unrealistic", "toxic", "oppressing", and/or "mysogonistic"

Chivalry really is dead!!! It’s the man’s job to treat us like princesses, buy us whatever we want, pay the bills to make sure we’ve got a roof over our heads. And as women it’s our job to comfort them in their time of need, have a nice hot meal ready for him as soon as they return from a hard days work, and to sexually satisfy him.

Astarlessnightsky · Answer

These split between spending money and doing the housework is outdated, when both work and earn money, both are equaly responsible for paying and doing housework besides their job.

Even though, especially the older generation of men don't really do much of the chores, even though the wife works full time as well. According to statistics.

DaveJord · Answer

Another amazingly confusing question, so loosely worded that by the time you wrap you mind around what you are trying to say... well, hell I had to say something I invest too much effort, by the time I think I figured out what you are trying to ask.

Where do you get your stuff from? Because I would love to smoke some of whatever you are smoking! 😂🤣😍

jshm2 · Answer

What are you babbling about?

Whatever adult lives in a place, is responsible for it all, unless leased or contracted. Things like "pay" and "chores" are things that should be known before moving in.

I would bitch slap idiots who cohabit, and then moan about bills and chores they "have to do".

BadApple69 · Answer

Darn good question. For me, I’m old school when it comes to going out. I pay.
But in the home I am more modern, I cook, I’ll clean, do my own wash…. Raised by my mother she taught me young that women are not our slaves, so learn to do these chores.

Tiptoetamm · Answer

I totally agree with you. I like to surprise my man and pay for dinner so he doesn't have to. I think things should be equal in a relationship, that includes everything

AmeerX · Answer

No, I don't think it should be split but the wife should do the grocery in whatever the husband gives her. If she earns she isn't going to contribute in the bills anyway. None of my uncle's wives did anything for their respective homes despite saying oh I work me back off and my hubby doesn't do anything and blah blah

Billlewis · Answer

I believe that the guy should always pay for everything, and do all the household chores and laundry, dishes, grocery shopping, etc. This is my opinion only.

OfMiceandMen · Answer

I do both. Whenever my girl comes over, she doesn't have to lift a finger or pay for anything at my place.

I'm a damn good cook and I like my place nice and clean, and do the outside work to boot. Mom taught me well.

MzAsh · Answer

I don’t think he should have to pay. I’d much rather pay than to cook and clean.

BourbonAndBacon · Answer

In my house I pay all the bills and do no chores. My fiance doesn't like the way I clean. I cook though because that's my stress release even though she is a very good cook. She is very traditional.

Apple1996 · Answer

Because men are capable of cleaning up after themselves

I believe part of the fall of our nation is because liberal girls choose the meat head loser. Conservative girls choose guys that have attributes of a girl. Single mothers abound. Then the children of the single mother don't get the right sense of upbringing.

If the cult society did exist, then the man would hunt a meal, prepare the food and present it in an edible manner. Provides a taste of protection that basic needs in survival will be provided for her by him.
But now a days guys do it a hoax and question why she didn’t like him. False dominance

HighValue · Answer

The man should insist on a prenuptial agreement so if the woman treats him unfairly he can put her out on the street like the MANY low quality hypocritical women deserve.

Anemone978 · Answer

He wants me to listen to him so he pays.. If his stupid ass is gonna listen to what I say I will pay.. he won't listen so he pays..

provokeesmokee · Answer

He shouldn't. At least not in my relationships with people. I like to split evenly unless there's good reason not to.

LazerBean · Answer

Pay for what? Not many men are traditional sole providers, and so obviously most women are king to be traditional wives to them.

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

I have no problem doing Laundry, sweeping floor, moping floor, taking trash out all the woman of the house is asked me and I will help her with no problem.

Christsdisciple15 · Answer

Pay for what? Also do you not both live in the house? Why wouldn’t you do chores if you live there? I’m confused

alice55 · Answer

No men do housechore, they let 90 % of house chores to women even when the woman pay half of every expense...

Grond21 · Answer

Thanks to the sexual revolution we have lost all of the traditional genders and so we have lost any way to answer this question as a culture. Even when you have obvious disparities.

Careful. You might get called a pick me for calling this out, lol.

Anonymous · Answer

Try this on for size - if I worked all week, made the sole income and took care of everything financially, and you were a stay at home wife/mother, you damn well better take care of all the house chores!!

Anonymous · Answer

Only if the woman is working, if she is a homemaker I don't see a need to split bills but that doesn't imply that there isn't equality

motownplayer2000 · Answer

Haha. It does. Because there is a double standard in this country.. and it is perpetuated by both sides

Anonymous · Answer

Cause men are inferior. A man asked her out on a date and he should have to pay. A man should respect that fact that she accepted his invitation. Woman always risk her life when dating and the man should pay.

Iron_Man · Answer

I live alone I have to do everything by myself plus chores it’s getting old

Juxtapose · Answer

It's because we will men allow that standard to exist.

Hispanic-Cool-Guy · Answer

Shouldn't pay. Men where the ones who came up with that bs that he should pay on a date.

OddBeMe · Answer

It’s not tradition. Whoever asks someone to dinner usually pays. Not sure the issue.
