Do these men even exist?!

[Killermanjaro]

Are there really men out there that have a job and do 50% of the housework/ chores / child rearing / cooking / 50% of the nappies, night feeds, playtime, walks in parks, bedtime reading etc, and at the same time are respectful, kind and loving to their partners and appreciate them and treat them as an individual with their own needs and desires?

I have never seen these men, they aren't in my friendship circle or at work or in my family. Definitely not my DH.

Replace the word men with women and replace 50% with a figure between 60-100% and I will find these women everywhere. These women are my friends, my family, my coworkers. I am one of these women 😔

If you have one of these mythical creatures, where the fuck did you find them?! (And do they have a brother?! 😆)

Yes. I'd say that describes my DH.

🙄🙄🙄

Yes I have one. I wouldn't say it was 50/50 all the time. Sometimes it's 70/30 me doing childcare and house stuff and sometimes him 70/30 - depending on how busy we each are. But overall 50/50.

Mine's just cooked us all a roast dinner which he shopped for and done the washing up.

I'm in bed feeling a bit crappy & he's made sure the kids are cuddled & tucked up in bed.

To be honest my Dad was pretty much the same.

It ebbs and flows of course.
We met 26 years ago at uni.
I hope to be bringing my boys up to be as loving, supportive and respectful as their Dad!
