As in "Oh, we split the jobs equally- I cook and clean-he puts up shelves and mows the lawn. We play to our strngths"
A good one on another thread today- the woman changes all the nappies-the man deals with sick.

My husband plans our holidays.
I look after the nursery administration, chosing schools etc.
Equal apparently.

''I do all the housework, he mows the lawn and washes the car''.

Yes, checking oil/tyres on car compared to doing the washing.

Surely, the ultimate - going out to a 40hour a week job plus commute, vs. 24/7 on-call care of children and house.
