Boy, does that piss me off.
I hate that the word "wife" is considered a natural companion to "housework", "kids", "daily bullshit."
My husband and I both work full time, but his schedule is more open during the day. He takes my daughter to school every day and picks her up. He is getting better at pigtails and braids all the time. He takes her to soccer, he does the grocery shopping and the dishes and the laundry. I know sometimes it gets to him; I know it's tough.
If he EVER said that his life would be easier if he had a "wife", I would take him apart. But it would never occur to him to say that. It seems to be mostly women who use "wife" in such a manner, and I don't know man, it just irks the shit out of me.
It seems so fucking sexist. I don't know if it is being anti-sexism (like that's a thing. Is anyone pro-sexism?) or my personal situation that make me feel this way. I hate it. HATE IT.
