Not rude. Nobody wants a dead ass partner that can't do for themselves.

@SW-User I don’t mind cooking and doing dishes as long as I have the energy to do it. But when a woman gets incapacitated for some health reason and can’t do it the partner needs to step up to the plate. That’s why it is very important for men to learn to do basic cooking and household chores and laundry. There are some that are too worthless to even attempt to help out with household chores or cooking. I knew an older woman who got breast cancer, lived on a farm and her husband expected her to do everything as usual plus drive herself to Tulsa for medical treatments. Her adult daughters cared for her and then she went to live with one who was going to the university here. She’d go back home about once a month to visit and eventually divorced her husband. They’d been married about 40 years. She went to live with her daughter on the east coast.
