Doing the dishes, cleaning the stove, making the beds, folding the landry and put it back where it belong! I actually put sheets in the tumble-drier and feel proud that I don't waste my life by the mangle. Until february I did'nt have a dishwasher it was Hell! Now I can't live without it, I never knew that one small baby could produce so much dirty dishes. I hate beeing in charge of everything and having the do all the housewife chores. Men don't realise that it's not just doing the things that takes time but all the planning! My partners ex-wife was the perfect housewife and he can't do anything if you don't make him, just like a child.
Since I'm a feminist and think that men and women are just as good or bad at hosework I refuse to take the whole responsibility for our home. He seems to accept it as long as he doesn't have to do the landry and he is really helpful with our daugther. And the god thing is that I'm not as helpless as the ex-wife, she couldn't pay the bills, use the computer, hang a picture, drive a car or program the VCR. Hence, I'm not so bad afterall just a little messy and I'm nice to him. But I almost never asks him to do things like cutting the grass or other typical man things.
In Sweden we have 240 days of maternity/pathernity-leave with 80% salary and whe are actually sharing the days. He is going to take care of the baby at least 4 months now and 3 later on. That is really great!
