Agreed, most men are like this. I’ve known many myself.

I’m a good cook. Do it several times a week. We usually cook together, though. More fun that way.

I wash nearly all of the dishes and never have a problem noticing when anything is out. I go grocery shopping by myself all the time to get what is needed (did it just yesterday). Why do all too many men seem incapable of this?

It’s not like I take care of everything, though — we do concentrate on what we prefer. I don’t like sweeping, so I don’t do that. And I don’t like cleaning mirrors. But we generally clean the bathrooms about half and half. Same with vacuuming and any other form of cleaning.

If we ever have to paint, though, I’m just not doing that. I hate painting, am bad at it, and refuse to do it. I’d rather hire someone, or just not do it at all. And no one wants me doing general house maintenance, if there is to be a house left standing at the end of it. I will gladly be the dumb muscle if my girlfriend decides she wants to do something, but if it’s up to me I hire someone.

I also don’t do yard work, but that’s why they make money.

But not being an oblivious dumbass is really not hard. I left childhood behind a long time ago. Why can’t more men do the same?
