If you're on the opposite side of a Reddit thread about something, chances are 98% of the time you're on the "right side of history" on that topic. Using their words not mine.
Also I'm going to assume these r-slurs just eat nonstop slop, because let me tell you, every happy healthy relationship I know in person, the dude does a bulk of the cooking. Women only cook if it's a brainless meal to prepare.

Cooking is too important to be entrusted to a foid. I agree w the arrangement though because i can eat my steak and potatoes and then relax after while she cleans up. She's better at cleaning anyways and i'm better at cooking so it works.

Meanwhile average western woman in a long term relationship drops her job six months in and spends most of her life sitting on the couch while the guy works his butt off, then whines that he's not doing enough and she spent all day working on chores (she got up at 2 and then browsed facebook marketplace for an hour and bought another live laugh love sign with his money)

At most its like 2 hours of actual work, the rest being TV/social media and whatever hobby that's chosen (that is also being counted as daily chores).
If you've got young children then the workload increases, sure. But otherwise, no lol.

lmao extreme wine mom cope, maybe your husband wouldn't have left you if you made a home cooked meal once in a while
leaving aside that this whole attitude towards relationships is r-slurred and that it's literally impossible to ensure completely even division of all household tasks without being completely neurotic, there's no indication that the husband can't or won't cook lol. For all they know, he could be the one who cooks every other day and she just felt like returning the favor for once. If anything, the fact that he thought about it as notable enough to post on the internet shows that he was surprised/this is not just a regular occurrence.

Redditors see a relationship as completely transactional. Everything one person does for the other needs to be reciprocated in kind or it's an abusive relationship.
Jump in the discussion.

I grew up in a family that had a really transactional gift giving tradition. So for example if my mom brought my aunt a crock pot for a house warming gift, my aunt would buy some pans or some shit of equal or greater value next time she showed up at our place. And then the cycle would continue with both of them blowing money on shit that neither really needed just for the sake of keeping up their pride lol (meanwhile the guys would just bring each other beer when their wives made them take a gift
). If somebody broke the cycle at some point, it'd get held over her head and a pointless argument about which one bought more stuff for the other would ensue ![:marseynoyou: :marseynoyou:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseynoyou.webp)
I dunno why somebody would actively try to cultivate that dynamic with his/her spouse (with chores in place of gifts obviously) because it seemed genuinely exhausting

If there's one thing that commie-tards get right is the capitalistic thinking towards relationships. You can't just enjoy one another and do things for each other without keeping a running tally? Why wouldn't I just hire a maid if making sure we're "even" is so important?
Jump in the discussion.

Exactly. What's even more ridiculous to me though is the idea that chores always somehow scale in difficulty with the addition of another person to the household. If you're a childless single person, you have the sole burden of cooking for yourself and cleaning up your own living space. If you get married and are still childless, is it really gonna make that much of a difference if you cook for your spouse as well? It's literally a matter of throwing two scoops of pasta into a pot instead of just one lol. As far as cleaning goes, I guess it kinda depends on how messy you are, but you're pretty much cleaning up the same amount of space at the same frequency. Laundry barely even counts as a chore if you sort out whites in advance and hang up most clothes instead of meticulously folding them.
Household chores aren't hard to begin with and doing them on behalf of somebody else doesn't make them that much harder. I don't get why redditors pretend that they're some kind of backbreaking labor.

If a woman made a meal for me (and if she weren't present), I would appreciate the effort, but I would seek to modify or supplement it somehow. Perhaps steam some rice, and buy some wine to pair it with. I'm not a goony goon fat neckbeard; i'm a male human being.
Nobody prescribes me something. I don't follow orders. I eat something because it suits me at the moment; if someone gives it to me then I bless them and I bless the meal and I give thanks to the person who prepared it for me, but I don't ever follow orders.
