thats disgraceful... how on earth do they get the energy to fill out the survey!

I dont know it has taken me two weeks to open that one email. Good job I have hired somebody to type on here for me

 

[Bmonki]

very good job, otherwise we'd never have known that 29% of women still do housework... we MUST reach out to these ladies and make them see sense... when we can be bothered.

PMSL I know someone who does that and she's not even pregnant!

 

[mislaww]

scrap that I use a mobile phone. A quick text to him from downstairs saying "the remote is all the way at the other side of the room will you come pass me it" is so much easier than actually finding the shop that sells these.

My husband does that to me. And he's definitely not pregnant. Although according to him "we're" pregnant. So I was complaining of a backache this morning and he says "aw, must be sympathy pains, mine hurts too". Please. I'd beat him over the head with a pillow if I could muster the energy...

I have done before I was pregnant if I am laid in bed and DH has tv on loud I am not going to get up to tell him to turn it down.

29%! they are lying to save face they must be! It's a fix.

My man servant must not see these odds he shouldn't be getting ideas above his station!

Very jealous of louiselou's house.

We're moving house at the end of the month I'm either going to have to invest in some kind of loud hailer that I can use to summon my Man Slave - ahem! Opps, I mean 'husband' - or else learn to shout very loudly. *sigh*

 

[bekki_d18]

Get a megaphone or use a broomstick to bang on the floor with when LO is in bed. that should do the job.

Please don't strain your vocal chords, whatever you do.

And moreover - moving house?!? Man Slave has this well organized I hope...

I got that bounty email, thought of this thread then the feminist in me got seriously cross that 71% of women are expected to have an excuse for not doing housework! 'Tis woman's work.

 

[InvisibleRain]

I don't work, but i clean the place etc...
OH works.. and i don't whine... i only whine when my back is sore so he can give me a massgage, other than that i never whine to others. I keep my shit to myself really lol! xD unless its something that is stressing me, but even then i only speak to one friend who is so supportive etc.

I have two cleaners coming round tomorrow to give us a quote for a thorough house clean the day after we move, as well as a removals firm to come and haul all our stuff to the new house. OH has, unfortunately, drawn the line at getting them to pack everything up for us too, but rest assured I am working on it. I shall sit back, and supervise everything from a reasonable distance, perhaps pausing from my relaxation every now and then to bark an order at my people.

Even before I was pregnant I'd shout for DH to come and give me the remote... way I see it, he took it away from me, he left it on a crappy channel, and then HE walked away.
Plus I was sitting with my legs up on the recliner and laptop and puppy in my lap... getting up just to reach 4 ft away takes way more work than it takes him to walk back in the room and hand it to me.
HE'S the lazy one who didn't hand me the remote back when he left in the first place
