In the past, women took care of the inside of the house, and men handled the outside. But now women are also working. In that case, men will have to change diapers too; thereâs no other way.
Even âthereâs no other wayâ felt like a blessing to me. Not because thereâs a way, but because we share a home.
If itâs a shared space, itâs also a shared responsibility. Thatâs my measurement. Whoever arrives early starts the meal, and whoever is available hangs the laundry.
My ex used to send a photo when she hung the laundry. âLook, I did it,â sheâd say. When I replied, âShould I post my story every day?â sheâd get upset.
@kirlisepetim itâs the same. You canât live with someone who becomes the household hero just because they washed a dish.
As a man, let me add that some women push men away saying, âyou leave it, Iâll do it.â Then the guy really doesnât learn.
@balkonperdesi thatâs right, because most women do it to avoid having to deal with it twice at the end of the job. Teaching is also left to women, thatâs the issue.
In a friend group, when I say âIâm vacuuming the houseâ, two types of reactions come up: one makes fun of me, and the other looks at me as if Iâve just won a Nobel Prize. Both are ridiculous.
Iâve prepared some remarks for @pazarertesiâs message because the Nobel part is correct. In our country, a photo of a man holding a mop would make headlines.
Guys, the tone is slipping a bit. The topic was about a window cleaner, letâs not involve anyoneâs family. These kinds of headlines always go off the rails from here.
@eskiuyelik nobody has entered the family yet, but itâs felt, itâs not long now.
I think the debate about the man wiping the glass is like a dry cloth when itâs still damp. Everyone leaves a mark, but no one really cleans the glass.
I both agreed with this sentence and I donât know what I read.
Iâm the subject here, let me add this: my spouse didnât raise this issue. It was friends who did. My spouse also said, âWhy are we in the spotlight just because I cleaned the window?â.
Then your spouse is normal, the environment is more ceremonial. The man has cleaned the glass, the assembly has been opened.
Exactly for this reason, the issue is not individual equality but the environment. Sometimes, the applause and shame from the surroundings amplify the burden on women more than from men.
Is praising bad? A person can compliment when they see good behavior. Letâs not reach a point where this is completely prohibited ![]()
@tersminder thatâs not good behavior, itâs a shared responsibility. The problem starts when you erase the difference.
Iâm looking after my grandson, and Iâm also cooking. When someone says, âYouâre such a good grandfather,â it makes me happy, but youâre right, no one says that to the grandmother ![]()
@cayibardakta look at this honest answer. Thereâs a difference between being pleasing and the system being crooked ![]()
