Not a confession, but do you agree with this statement?

"You working on cleaning the house and taking care of your kids is harder work for a man to do then a woman."

Do you agree with this statement? I do not....

Haha! No. Dh is better at housework than I, but I'm generally better with the kids.

 Not in general but in my house it is true.

It just depends on the individual.

That's what I thought when I first read it.

Quoting kngarber:

My husband definitely can not do it all like I do. However I don't necessarily think it's that way for everyone. I'm also slightly picky about how certain things are done.

lol.. i kind of do... its funny to watch SO clean around the house... he struggles.... he has to like stare at the vacuum for 10 minutes to figure out how to turn it on, then when he needs to empty it, that takes him another 20 minutes (just to figure out how to open it.) He flooded the bathroom last time he tried to clean the shower...idk..

I think its just we are so used to it and they arent... it would be like us going to their work and trying to do their job.. we would be lost

nope, MOST men are just lazy (when it comes to any household chores or watching their own children)

In some cases it is true, like if he is disabled or something...in general, though, I don't think it is harder, they are just lazier. Also, I do think most women feel the compulsion to clean before a man will. They are perfectly comfortable in a mess. Also, our mothering instincts tell us we have to provide a clean house so our kids don't get sick. It is just as easy for a man to DO it, though.
