Whoever comes home first cooks. When I was in retail management, my hours where all over the place and often times, come home much later, so she cooks. Now that I'm on my own, I control my own schedule and I control where I want to be. Most of the time, I'm home before my wife now, so I cook. But she does comes and help when she can. She usually does the clean up.

So long as whoever cooks ALSO cleans up their mess... then I'm fine either way.
(I've known too many kitchen slobs)
Not in our home, when I cook he cleans up and when he cooks I clean up.
As far as house chores we do those as they are needed.
There is no "his work/his work" it all needs done.
Depends on our work schedules. Lately, I've only been cooking once or twice a week. Mr. Butterflyfish cooks once or twice a week. We eat out or order take out once or twice a week and forge for ourselves the rest of the time.
I am a good cook and I like to cook when I have the time for meal planning, shopping, and cooking. But Mr. is a picky eater and as such, he has taken the wind out of my sails and I am not inspired to cook much anymore, especially when I'm busy.
Finicky eaters is a major pet peeve of mine. LOL... I can rant and rail against fussy eaters all day...
I have a coworker, 46 yr old guy and he eats like a 10 yr old. Doesn't like anything but white bread bologna sandwiches... LOL....
One time we were have training in our office so they catered in some food and he got majorly majorly pissed off because they brought in sandwiches, all gourmet style with various types of breads, like focaccia and ciabatta etc.
He almost had a tantrum because there wasn't "normal" bread available.
I've been cooking since I was like 8 yrs old so inevitably I've always cooked regardless of who I'm with....
But....the one guy who did cook for me (he was my former landlord/neighbor- turned into a flame)
Was amazingly talented at throwing together things I've never had before....
Homestyle authentic Polish fare....(lol he was from Poland obviously)
We split the duties. Hubby cooks sooner one week, I do the next week. We get up at different times through the week, so I normally cook breakfast and make him a plate. Lunch is leftovers.
I clean as I go, hubby uses every pot in the kitchen when he cooks.
We cook for ourselves since neither of us likes the other person's cooking, in general.
