Oh, the movie quotes! so true. But in our home, I’m the football fan and he works Sundays. It’s all very ironic, since he often works on the sidelines of Lambeau Field while I’m home shouting at the television set…I’m afraid to try fantasy football because I’ll get addicted! Not my loving husband. He’s a better cook, too. Oh, man, I’m hopeless!

Haha- I get it. Ah, to be a domestic goddess!

Thank you for all of your comments - unfortunately, we’re just wired this way, or most of us anyway. Sasha, I definitely meant this post as a little sarcastic but with a tinge of truth; we men (most of us) simple don’t have the same domestic abilities as our wives, I really believe this. And I actually relish being the adult child in the family, but only if it doesn’t tick off my wife too much.

I find this a little safe-hating although funny. I mean, what father or mother would tell their young son that this is their destiny? No mother thinks her son is future simpleton who - yes- holds a job and provides for his family - but is a a primate all the same and doesn’t have as much to bring to the table as his female counterparts.

A little Everybody Loves Raymond meets King of Queens meets every single commercial featuring a husband and wife doesn’t it?

Sometimes I wonder if men get tired of being seen as the adult child in the family.

Thank you for confirming what I’ve finally come to realize about my own husband. Unfortunately, he is not one of those exceptions. He would like to be more and do more for me and our kids. But sadly, he’s ill-equipped.

I like to give my male co-workers a hard time for being able to quote lines from every movie they have ever seen yet birthdays and anniversaries escape them.

Yes, I think my husband would pretty much agree with this, too. Why IS it that men just don’t care about their surroundings?
