Sharing the housework destroys relationships!

rofl, the last line of that video, hahahaha

Because the traditional households where the woman does the lion's share of chores:

1. Involves traditional women who buy into the patriarchy-inspired view of women as second class citizens who are responsible for "serving" men

2. Involves traditional women who do not work outside the home and hence have more time to devote to housework. Many such wives do not have reason to resent their husbands for not picking up a fair share of the housework.

3. And last, but most important, the housework gets done right because its not left up to lazy, lame a$$ men to do any of it.

yep!

But the antagonism in modern relationships stem from women finally getting a clue and recognizing

1. women do not need to be subservient to men

2. women have a higher quality of life when they don't resign their lives to men (especially in light of the high divorce rate)

3. women expect men in their lives to respect/support them- and hence, pick up a fair amount of the chores, child rearing etc.

Basically, modern women don't want "traditional" men and demand more from them as equal partners.

Funny. When I say traditional, unequal relationships are unrealistic and that I want equitable, 1:1 relationshops for everyone I get maligned as 1) a closeted homosexual and 2) a misogynist.

LRC, you da bomb!

I try to give you the benefit of the doubt but the fact remains that you are just plain stupid.

everybody thinks divorce is some sort of disaster, and to be avoided at all costs.

people change, and relationships change. its a normal part of being human.

rofl, at silly humans, thinking their affairs even matter.

Divorce is a disaster, assuming you understand the gravity of breaking a vow with another human (and god, if you're religious)

If you both agree that divorce is the best option, how is that breaking a vow? Its not working, time to move on.

Let me guess.....you have never been divorced, or even married....

Divorce, almost always, means you are too lazy to work to keep a relationship. No just with your spouse, with anyone.

I know a guy, divorced three times before age 33, who has about a dozen tattoos. He plans on getting several more. He says tattoos are a sign that he knows how to make a commitment.

He actually has no clue how to make a commitment. He is too lazy. He thinks he knows, his tattoos prove it. Nope.

Please note that the use of phrases such as "Let me guess" and "You do know" as rhetorical devices is moronic, sophomoric and was out of style before the first time either one of these was ever used.

I hope that you will be able to improve your posts in the future.

Have you? I assume not, if you take marriage so lightly.

I have to both. And strangely enough, as I am an adult, I am still on good terms with my ex-wife. This is pretty common in the modern world.

Are you and/or your ex-wife religious?
