A
DIGEST from my conversation yesterday with a married man; he told me:
“I
realized that my wife comes home tired the same way I do; she had been out all
day working too and we all are going to eat the food she is going to cook. So
instead of leaving her to suffer the stress of cooking alone, I join in! And
I’ve always observed that cooking usually take a longer time whenever she has
to do it alone but helping her out with some things makes the cooking easier,
faster and enjoyable for both of us, especially for her.
At a
certain stage of my life as a young man, I had lived alone, cooked my food; no
matter how tired I was, I never cultivated the attitude of eating at
restaurants. I think it helped me to learn so many lessons about how cumbersome
household chores could be. So I encourage the young men to engage in same
training I gave myself. If they live all their lives with their parents or with
a group, where they don’t have to do these things by themselves, before getting
married, they might not really appreciate it. I also want to disabuse husbands
of the idea that “It’s the woman’s work.” I implore you to please, assist your
wives.
A
word of advice to the women, appreciate your man’s efforts to assist you and to
make you happy. ‘Don’t abuse it! (Many women do.)’
Please
feel free to make your contributions “for” or “against”. Thanks. - ‘Nido
