    Do you do house work because you want to, or do you do it to earn favours from your partner?

    Relationships aren’t business deals. You don’t pay for sex with choirs and brownie points.

      Nobody does house work because they want to.

      Edit: those of you who disagree and do want to do housework… would you come do mine?

      Relationships aren’t business deals. You don’t pay for sex with choirs and brownie points.

      All relationships are transactional. There may not always be an explicit ledger with columns for AP/AR. Interpersonal relationships that repeatedly fail to provide the expected return on investment result in dysfunction and toxicity. We always pay for sex and companionship; the currency just probably isn’t money.
