Should husband help with housework?
My husband is 33 and I am 23. He is an “old school” sort of guy so he does not really do any housework and he is also a totally slob. He leaves his clothes all of the place, brags that he has never made a bed in his life, and does not notice filth. He does not ask me to clean or do all the housework, but I end up doing it anyway because he just does not care if the house is a mess. In all fairness to him, he makes quite a bit of money as an attorney and I only work part time right now. What bothers me is I feel I should be forcing him to do more around the house. Some of my more feminist friends are appalled with him with and claim they would never let their boyfriends or husbands get away with not doing housework because it is “2009.” Should I make him help? I guess I wouldn’t mind his help, but I also don’t feel it is my place to force him especially since I have such different standards.
