I Have A Question For Guys

Hmmm..that's a good question. I don't like being financially beholden to anyone..but, if I couldn't find work..I'd be the best damn house husband ever!

He should do house chores whether he had a job or not. Weird question.

I cannot speak for others, BUT..... I lost my corporate job right after 9-11. My wife had been working part-time at a school in order to "keep an eye on our son" (disabled). When I got laid off she saw an opportunity to go full-time and accepted. So, in essence we switched roles.

This allowed me to stay at home and focus on an idea I had to start an internet business AND take care of my son when he was not in school. So, I became a full-time "house-husband". Fast forward: the business took off and I have been a "house husband" for over 20 years now.

My spouse works hard in her job, so I make sure the dishes are done, the floors are vacuumed regularly and the laundry is done so that when she gets home she can just relax. Yes, she still looks for "things not done".... and I do think there might be a slight inkling of "jealousy" there.... but it works for us.

Of course, I can't see every guy being as flexible as I am.... so, "your mileage may vary".....

It's a partnership isn't?

I would be extremely depressed and not want to do anything, but I understand that that's a flaw of mine to be overcome, and would at least try to contribute.

I do all the chores anyway, even when I worked. Yet I have been alone for decades now.

What's the reward for living with anyone?

I did it for a period of time... went from being jobless to working part-time from home to about six months later, going back to a full-time job. During that period my significant other was working and I did about 99% of the household chores.

Before and after that she and I more or less shared the household and kid duties... okay, she shared more than I did, but I did do nightly and weekend chores and kid stuff, plus I was almost always the cook.

I had one period of enforced unemployment when I did a load of decorating etc.

More recently ill health forced me to retire early so I took over shopping, cleaning etc as for years while I commuted, travelled, worked late etc she regularly did those tasks. I'm happy to do it. I would have to do it if I was on my own.

I would do it no questions asked. In fact I did a few years back. I moved to her country to live together, and before I found a job I made sure the house was always spotless and that she came home to a warm meal. I also often drove her to and from work.

As a couple is a team I would have no problem.
Besides, doing daily chores while also working is not at all alien to me, did it since young, when married, when single and specially as a long time "single dad".

I don't see why that would be an issue. I'd clean , do the laundry and cook your favorites including dessert all while donning an apron and nothing else underneath. And I want a kiss soon as you get home... I'm not prone to headaches if you know what I mean

I am retired now. But we wife and I both worked full time once the kids were in school and split the home duties. Now I still pull some grandparent pickups and manage the house as my wife canr any more. Its just not as hard as some make it lookm unless you want the place to look like a display the whole time. which ours never did..😷

Yes, I could do that. I actually do some housework now.

I did the chores regardless of my employment status when I lived alone.

So I don't see a probelm doing house work.

I wouldn’t mind

Of course I wouldn't mind, I'm a subbie.

If that was what was needed. Our kids are grown. But they still are home and now 4 grandchildren live here also. But that another story.

I was a house husband for 3 years when my ex and I were living abroad. Not an issue for my cv , currently working in Europe things my be a little easier here v

No problem. I had to do that when she had a serious medical issue years ago. Everybody survived my cooking.

As of yesterday i am retired. Signed the forms. Not married but have a gf. Watching the dog while she's at church. Have our own places. Always have to do my own chores. Will just have more time to do them now i guess.

Have been a house husband in the past as well as other roles. Nothing at all wrong

I wouldn't mind at all being a house husband. I enjoy being home. I live alone and do all the domestic chores, anyway.

I did exactly that for a year during Covid. Cleaning and laundry won't do themselves.

I did that for about 6 months during the 2010 housing crash. I didn’t mind it

Why would I mind being on vacation?

I belive in doing what is just needed , after all it's my own house, why to shy away in my own house

No, not at all. Been there, done that.

I mean I usually do those anyway as well as work so probably.

My husband has like 4 jobs. Any of them can keep him busy

Yes, I need to work and be a provider to feel worthy.

of course. cant see why not.

Yes Of Course

I would give 110%. I know that I wouldn't be able to keep a house spotless without any help at all because I have limited mobility these days - but I would still try my best to do as much as I can do and a bit more besides.

I would mind

I do chores regardless. But not being able to provide would bother the heck out of me. I would take an position even if I have to downgrade or create my own business.

I wouldnt mind

Sure

I absolutely would be a house husband! And if I do something wrong, like break a dish or accidentally bleach her colored clothes, I expect her to pull my pants down and whip my tushy tan! While telling me how I'm a "bad boy" and mommy is whipping me for my own good!

If I wasn't working and I had a partner who was, I would definitely be doing three chores. I'm a bit slower at some being in a wheelchair, but I'd be doing my best to contribute.

I would further state that if we both worked, we would share in chores. The only time one partner should have the majority of chores is when they do not work and the other does. The chores are their contribution to working in that case.

Welp...im gay so i wonder if this applies.
I have had both a house husband and have been a house husband.

I can't imagine being so fragile in your masculinity that you would be upset at being a homemaker.

No, but I wouldn't do the chores, I hate chores.

I could certainly do that, and even more. I would even be a sissy for some random female if she was cute and kept me in chastity all the time and sometimes beat me. Its really a thing.

I would delight in being your house husband and doing as you wished ♥️♥️♥️
