I went out for drinks with my friend last night. Her partner has just moved into her flat. I asked how it was going and she said he was very messy and didn't do any housework. She's now given him specific jobs which are his.
She said 'he is tidying up tonight too. He's just asked me to write a list of what needs doing and he said he'll get it done.'
I said nothing, but thought to myself why the fuck do so many women accept this, and actually think it's helpful? Why do they think men cannot see what needs doing as well as they do? Can't they see that it is just so the man gets away with not having to think about anything domestic?
It infuriates me is much. AIBU to think that women shouldn't accept that a man needs a list of housework?

To be baffled as to why women accept this?
