If he owns half of the house, shouldn’t he do half of the housework ?

just that really. I took on traditional roles because he worked away a lot and I was a SAHM for a while.
Now he’s retired, I work PT, yet it’s still my responsibility. If I ask him to do something he either does it badly or says I’m a nag.
I so hope women see that it’s not on any more, and sort this shit out from the start.

Get him to pay for a cleaner. That is what my Mr would do, at present I am stay at home so the house is my job but this is only on the condition that he earns all the cash. He has said if he is ever responsible for a percentage of cleaning he would get a cleaner.

This set up only works for us because he knows that the house, kid's stuff, garden, school runs, being here if anyone is ill blah blah blah is of equal importance.

Cleaner on his account or cleaning himself those are the choices.
