Good to know that they have. Anything else you want to teach
So you are going to be snarky to him, when you posted your own opinion on the same thread?

Gender bashing is not allowed. I have tried to move this thread away from bashing men. If it deteriorates it will be closed.

(Assuming we're not talking about someone who inherently selfish and either did a good job fooling their partner or their partner was simply blind to it)
When the newness wears off, people get comfortable with one another and stop trying to impress each other. It's not uncommon for people to put into the relationship proportionate to what they're getting out of it. One person may think they're putting in a ton of effort, but missing the mark in the areas that are actually important to their partner. Personally, I think women generally have it a little easier in that regard: a lot of men are happy and feel their needs are met when their partner listens to them, is loyal, keeps their belly full, and their balls empty. Stop wasting energy on scrubbing the bathtub and cooking fancy dinners 6 nights per week, when dude just wants to eat a taco over the sink and get some lovin'

pretty much this and I can actually cook and feed myself!
I think keeping a man happy is much easier than keeping a woman happy.... at least in my relationship. I have to agree with Ms. Mathlete.

I agree that most men do not seem as chore oriented. It seems they don't see it and/or it is not a priority. It's always a case of whoever it bothers the most...... ends up doing the chore.
Then there are men, like me for instance, who have been fulltime caregivers for their wives who have medical issues and physical limitations we've compensated for over the course of many years. It makes us the chief cooks and bottle washers, shoppers, errand runners, chauffeurs, pet minders, launderers, house maintainers, etc. Since I have my own physical and mobility limitations now I do admit to having a housekeeper come in every two weeks to do the heavy lifting as well as a lawn service. It also helps that I enjoy cooking and am rather good at it. I even clean up after myself.
Not everybody has yard, some live in flats...house repairs aren't needed to be made everyday, like food for example. Women still have more work to do around the house, cleaning dust, washing clothes, making food, going to buy food and etc...
It sounds like you didn't pay attention to these things before you got married. This is not about "men". It is about your own particular man.
