Things got heated in the friend group when the quiet guy was praised

In such discussions, the issue always shifts from the topic to a personal conflict, and here we have also veered from the subject to character analysis.

@miniksercefan the rhythm is always like this: someone says something sweet, someone makes a silly comparison, and then everyone comes with their chair. Instead of a chair, there’s a mop here.

I’m still stuck with the person who says ‘it doesn’t suit you’. Does a socket look good, for example? Does ironing ruin the masculinity of electricity?

If @utuprizi is disrupting the electricity service, let’s say the woman should also pay the bill to make it fair.

The cleanest method in these matters is a list. You write down who is doing what on a weekly basis, and both heroism and victimization diminish.

They shouldn’t write ‘help’ on the list either. Not help, it’s what they deserve :woman_shrugging:

@supurgekablosu alright, but everyone has different workloads. Sometimes one person does more; the issue isn’t the count but the balance.

Balance is disrupted when it’s visible. When a woman gets tired, she’s accused of ‘overdoing it,’ and when a man gets tired, it’s said that ‘he worked a lot today.’ :roll_eyes:

My mom still tells my brother, ‘you sit down, I’ll pick it up.’ Then she told me, ‘don’t spoil your husband.’ Household training is deteriorating within the family.

This title is actually not about housework, but rather about raising a boy at home as if he were a guest.

@ortayakarisik3 exactly. Girls automatically connect to everything like the house’s bluetooth device :smiling_face_with_tear:

The Bluetooth analogy is good but bitter. The ‘guest boy’ syndrome is pretty prevalent.

In our time, they didn’t let boys do much work, that’s true. Now, I am teaching my son how to cook. People change, even if it’s late.

@kirecbaglamis this is the response I wanted to see. Ideas can change without fighting.

I get a bit hurt by this praise issue. Because when a woman gets tired, nobody says ‘well done’, they just look at what is lacking.

@sungerliyorum exactly this. The clean side of the house is invisible, while the dirty side is immediately recorded in the woman’s domain.

Some men should also learn this: when you do a job and say “I helped,” it makes the other person the owner of the house and yourself a guest.

@berjerkoltuk “I helped” is a red flag for me too. It’s like they washed their own glass and opened a charity.

If someone helped, why are they being praised for such a simple thing? It’s your house, didn’t they help too?

I used to say I was helping the lady, and she would correct me saying ‘not me, but the house.’ She was right. Changing the language also changes the mindset.
