    Marriage is a partnership. Duty? Maybe its my view of the word but I don't think I have a duty to act in a specific way according to some set rule....my husband doesn't either. We both contribute to the family. There have been times when he wasn't working & I was the bread-winner and times it was the reverse. If we had a 'duty' it was to the family as a unit, not as individuals. We divided responsibilities according to ability & situation.
    Through all of our running and all of our cunning, if we couldn't laugh we just would go insane. - Jimmy Buffett

    I'll think more on this later.

    Misogyny like racism has conceptually been spread out too thin. Is defining traditional relationship-gender roles misogynistic? That's a matter of opinion I think and I don't agree.

    When there's a huge spider in the shower and she comes running to me to deal with it, is that misandristic? I don't think so. Or when the battery in the lawn tractor needs changed?

    Like anything else, people get way too hung up on $#@! like this. Chill the $#@! out already.

    Private poll, no one will know so be honest.
    Yep. "Honey, could you please bring me a sandwich and a beer. I'll do the laundry later." is like light years better.

    Sammich and Fetch are not words one should use (unless one is married to a dog i suppose ;-)
