Why household chores are divided between partners in Europe, while women work in our country

In today’s world, not working is very difficult. Everyone strives for independence, which is a joy. Despite this, there is still debate over whether to share household responsibilities when both men and women work in the family. If you look at the truth, even in the presence of a permanent job for his wife, men insist that life is the care of his wife under any circumstances. People still share male and female responsibilities, forgetting that women have long ceased to be financially dependent on men and do not have to clean and cook for the second breadwinner in the family.



Common sense suggests that it is easier to divide responsibilities equally, regardless of the gender of the person. This format of family life is accepted by young families, but not all. After all, most from childhood instilled outdated stereotypes about men and women.

Even if a woman works, it does not guarantee that her husband will start helping her around the house. Although the phrase “help around the house” is a template. If the house is built thanks to the joint efforts and financial investments of the spouses, then it belongs to both, as well as the duties of the house.



Harvard conducted a sociological survey. More than 6,000 couples were asked how they handled their finances, what income they had and what household responsibilities they performed. As a result of the survey, it turned out that many men had money as an argument for their inactivity in everyday life.

When working women tried to talk about the state of affairs, it did not lead to success, even if the partners' earnings were equal. The situation was different when a woman had her own savings and participated in paying bills out of her own pocket. Then there was a chance that a man occasionally could wash the dishes.



Simon Oakes, author of Why Men Get Married, believes a woman can get justice. To this end, the writer suggests the following actions.

1. Ask him to do a man's job. Things that are physically difficult for you to do. It is important to ask without aggression, preferably in love.
2. Tell your partner what you did at home. These things are not noticed until you talk about them. Over time, the man will become more attentive.
3. Scheetry. If the man does not help clean, ask him to buy an expensive vacuum cleaner with 15 nozzles.
4. Housework is not noticeable until it is done by another person. Take a break for a week or two and the difference will be palpable.
5. Do something together. Cooking together is very romantic, there is no feeling of fatigue, and everyone is happy.

I want to say that Oaks is aimed at a woman to change her attitude to a man and unobtrusively instill in him a love of order. However, if he was raised differently, it is unlikely to help. Both should work for the good of the family, but this is my subjective opinion. Remember that you have the same right to rest as your man. And if you love each other and respect each other, over time you will find a compromise. Do you think you should share household responsibilities equally?
