I think some of you are overthinking this. OP put this under entertainment and if there was a thread on Imabba about women messing up any kind of menial labor I would take it in stride and allow myself to laugh. that's not saying no woman can change a light bulb or even use a drill correctly but there'll be stories galore of mishaps and the ones where the woman is the culprit would make for an entertainment thread.

another point, it clearly states that in Pharoah in Mitzrayim mixed up the women's and men's role and that was the biggest curse of all. it made the shibud that much harder. I'll leave it at that.


Copycatter! (Except that you were first...)

Took the words right outta my mouth!

This opinion may be very unpopular today, probably due to feminism. I do think men should share the responsibility of the home with women, but splitting it and making it "even" is a modern phenomenon. If it works for you and your husband, pls go for it! But if a man doesn't take as much responsibility at home, that doesn't make him a jerk either.


It makes him a jerk if his wife is overwhelmed, or if she is taking over some traditional male responsibilities (like earning money).

Interestingly enough, where I live, it is considered the dh's job to grocery shop!!

I work with a lot of dati leumi men in Israel and they all do the major grocery shopping. It's funny, during breaks they will often argue where the best deals are to be had, or where the best produce is to be found.
My dh as well did all the major food shopping (I supplemented) until recently.
