Every relationship is different, and every couple makes their own accomodations.

I personally would do dinner every night if he washed the dishes afterwards- I like cooking much more than cleaning up!

I don't think it's fair to expect the woman to work and do all housework as well, there has to be some equitable split of household income and duties in every couple.

It's just that the idea of 'equitable' changes from person to person.

Within the last week..I've had two brothers mention to me that the women they are running into either CANNOT cook or don't want to cook for them... as a result, one brother broke off an engagement and the other goes to his ex's house to get a good meal... He said although he works as a chef and admittedly cooks better.. he still wanted to walk through the door and smell some food cooking when he got home. We also talked further and he said that he doesn't know what women don't understand...that men have a few basic core needs which are
1) Sex 2) Home Cooked Meals 3) Time Away or with the boys 4) NOt to talk all the damn time!

My question to GC.., is it fair to expect women to have dinner prepared every night, although they are working the same number of hours sometimes as a man?? Do you think the needs of a man are this simple?? And if so...do we feel we're fulfilling them??
