There not hard jobs, I cooked everyday for myself unless my girlfriend was over then I would cook for two, I did laundry (I don't want to be stinky after working out), I sew because I never really had enough money to buy new cloths when mine would get old and torn. Maybe if I had a mother then maybe I wouldn't have learned these things, who knows.
that's my point x]

many people are so spoiled that even the 'girls' today
don't know how to do some of those jobs
and for the guys, some guys just think it's a woman's thing
when i personally think it's manlier when men do it ^^"


i was personally kind of spoiled, was never forced too do any chores or anything.

the reason why i sew, why i cook, why i do the laundry and etc.
those were all personal choices
no one forced them on me
or even suggested it xD
i just ... suddenly wanted to do it one day lol

im a guy i cook and love to cook, i clean... sometimes. well my room wouldnt win cleanest room of the year, but it is ok from a guys point of view lol.

dishes i help out with now. all my brothers and sisters and cousins, since we were little have had to wash and hang/dry our own clothes. weather it is hand wash or machine wash we all know how to do it.

i don't like cleaning, but i guess i gotta do it

we were taught this because they knew it would be helpful. i would like to say it has been really helpful.

Wooohoooo!!

Well, that was me about a month ago, as of now I do everything at home cause I have no one to do it for me xD! And I don't actually have a maid, just a housekeeper who comes by every other week and does all the cleaning cause I'm really bad at this sort of thing... but I do the rest of the work: laundry, ironing, cooking (both lunch and dinner), do the dishes ( = put them into the dishwasher + press some button and wait till they're clean ^^) anddd oh I make my bed every morning before I set off to Uni Yeh, my life's just great as it is xD!


everything is relative and contradictory ~

i think it's great that guys are able to do such things as laundry and whatnot
i think it shows more of their "independence"
^_^

I'd gladly do all of the work, if she wanted me to, and if I had a girl... >.>


The color of the sala flower reveals the truth that is... To flourish is to fall. The proud do not endure.

Heaven or Hell, Let's Rock!

Like a passing dream on a night in Spring. The mighty fall at last, to be no more than dust before the wind.
