In this episode, we dive deep into the long-standing cultural narrative of "men’s chores" versus "women’s chores." Why do certain household tasks still get divided along gender lines, and how does this impact relationships, mental load, and equality at home? We weigh in on and unpack how breaking down these old-fashioned chore divisions can lead to a more balanced, harmonious household. Join us as we challenge the idea that certain chores belong to one gender, and explore how both men and women can take ownership of all aspects of home life. We also discuss 'weaponized incompetence' - a behaviour pattern when a partner pretends to be bad at a task so they don't have to do it.
