There are women who arent like that. My mom would of been the dream girl for any guy; loved to stay at home cook, clean, take care of the house. My dad was dumbass though and didnt see the woman he had so he cheated on her religiously which of course ended up as a divorce.
dream life for me, bro. me as househusband and my wife work from her comfy job. i do some part time and stuff.
How old are you though? Your mother grew up in a different era, where housewives were actually housewives and took that shit seriously. It was actually their job and they made damn sure they were good at it. The type of woman who would lambaste her peers for neglect of duty if she would have ever saw something Facebook or a Cherry Berry. It also wasn't as hard to live on a single income back then. Times have changed. They didn't have all the gadgets and modern technology that essentially makes that "job" an afterthought. Non-iron shirts and set it and forget meals didn't exist when you were growing up (if you're over 30). Not to mention that it was difficult for a woman to be taken seriously in the workforce.
Do not let pride obscure your view of the glorious forbidden melons.
Yup. My Italian stepmother (North American raised) growing up was one of those stay at home moms that constantly complained about her life, despite the fact that she insisted on staying home while my dad preferred she worked. She'd always complain how hard her job was taking care of her 2 kids, even though I'd come home every day at 3:30 and she'd either be napping or watching soaps. Now HER mom (my step-grandma I guess?) was from the "old country" (Sicily to be exact), and was fucking hardcore. She OWNED her role-- house was always immaculate, every weekend she would wake up at 6 am to cook a massive feast of hand made gnocchi and five other courses, and would look on with horror if I dared try and help cleanup. Anyways, I remember my step-grandma being over one night visiting and my dad had just arrived home form work, and he didn't even have the chance to take off his sport jacket before my stepmom started to hassle him to help her out in the kitchen because she had a "rough day". A minor fight ensued because my dad said something along the lines like "can you give me a few minutes to relax first'. After my dad shook his head and fled into his bedroom, I shit you not my step-grandma fucking back-hands my stepmom across the face and starts railing at her in a mix of English/Italian. "how did my daughter become such a lazy spoiled brat?? I cooked for your brother, you and your father growing up, and I would have to walk to the market to get a chicken butchered and pluck the feathers myself. Do you think I had a big refrigerator, washing machine? Do you think I got to go to the dry cleaners or had disposable diapers? How dare you talk to your husband like that after work."
What's funny about the shower cleaning being a 'her chore' is that depending on the cleaning agents, nature of the people being cleaned and the tub surface it can be one of the most physically demanding chores there is, lol.
What the hell do you do in your shower that you consider cleaning it "physically demanding"?
Yeah, it's pretty much spray and wipe. It's more physically challenging to operate the carpet shampooer. For whatever reason, that's just one of the things she does that I never touch.
