Girl code: Let’s talk men and house chores

 Can you participate in your own house chores without being pushed? (Photo: Shutterstock)

Because I am in the mood to engage married men today, I will ask you this question; Can you participate in your own house chores without being pushed, or must your women bribe you? I have not only seen but also experienced what it means to be helped, or not, with house chores.

I must say that the relationship that lasted longest was the one where my man used to help in the house. I remember how fun it was, just the two of us going about the chores, talk of laundry, cooking... name them. Back then, most of my friends always told me that the only reason my man was helping me around was because we still hadn’t had a baby and the relationship was new. I dated this man for seven years and all through the years, he never changed. You should have seen us in the kitchen together. He would be chopping onions while I would be chopping tomatoes. In the laundry, I would wash the clothes and he would rinse them then we would both go out to air them to dry. It was such a priceless feeling.
