Mars and Venus. Got to love ‘em.

Cooking:

Her –

(On work days and at weekend) Plan a meal, source ingredients or use what is in the fridge, produce a tasty repast at a convenient time for the majority in the house.

Him –

Option 1 “What’s for tea?”

Option 2 (on being informed it’s his turn to cook) “I’m not hungry, I’ll just have a bowl of cereal, you sort yourself out”

1/2 an hour later “Ooh, that looks tasty, have you done enough for me?”

Cleaning:

Her –

Sees a mess, clears it up and cleans room prompting “”Where have you put all my F*#@$€ stuff?!”

Him –

“This house is a shit hole. That floor needs a mop”

Gardening:

Her –

Gets the hedge clippers, wheelbarrow and rake. Cuts a section of hedge, picks it up, disposes of it, rakes grass clear. Repeat until a suitable amount of hedge has been clipped for that day.

Him –

Usually after “Her” has cut and tidied the lawn.

Fire up hedge clippers. Look for anything and everything that might require cutting back. Spend a day wielding the machine around the garden and even going next door to see if they want anything cut.

Collapse in armchair, demand a beer and announce that he is knackered and it’s her job to clear it all up tomorrow.

Designated driving.

Her –

“Who’s turn is it to drive?

Him –

Option 1 “Well, it’s my friends so I really should drink because I’m hosting them/need to be on the same plane as them”

Option 2 “Well, it’s your friends so I really should drink to make it tolerable”
