A man's work is never done!
Men washing dishes? Women
fixing the leaky faucet? Well, according
to this article the longer a couple is married, the more likely they are to
undergo a reversal of traditional roles in their home. That said, I was
wondering how the chores are broken up in your households? Any takers?
Btw, that Tomaten-Zucchinni casserole wasn't bad for a vegi dinner.

On the subject of your post, I think this is true. Post-retirement, I have found myself taking more and more responsibility for many household chores while the wife goes out and earns a living. Though I'm not entirely devoid of my own modest income, she is unquestionably the bread-winner these days.
She never asked me to do household chores but I am sufficiently soft-headed to want to do them. So I do laundry, dishes, some cleaning and even some cooking (as the spirit moves me). On weekends, she tries to do some of the household stuff, I think just to stay in touch with that side of her persona.
I like the arrangement because it enables me to feel more useful while still giving me time to do my own writing and painting and crafting.
Is that how it is with everyone else?
