Why don’t you ask the Yazidi women their opinion?
“When children see their mothers pursuing careers and their fathers doing housework, they’re more likely to carry gender equality forward to the next generation.”
Putting men in their place, stifled in the office wage slaving for lower wages competing against offshored labor and hitting the glass ceiling in an environment that rewards sex differences and skin color over performance and time at a company. Now go in the kitchen and make “ME” a sandwich and do the dishes and do the laundry.
Somehow life is better with assertive women pushing men into the same limiting roles that they believe were forced upon them.
You can do some chores.
But never when she asks.
Only when you decide.
Then get ready for action.

Last night my wife asked me if I ‘wanted’ to pour the drinks and help her get ready for dinner. I was conflicted. I did not ‘want’ to do that. I could see what retirement would be like. Luckily, at that very moment, the phone rang from work and I escaped a showdown.
It has been said that men should not try to understand women. Because women understand women and they hate each other.
Sounds like she’s nothing more than a self-absorbed over-sexed social media swinger, facebook syncophant and stakeholder.
“each spouse should think of it as his or her job to give a solid 100% at all times.”
Thing is BOTH have to. One may become complacent, knowing the other will take care of everything. One may also develop depression over “I can’t do it all” and “you don’t need me, you’re handling it all without complaint”, turning that 100% into something much less (but still enough to declare “I’m working my butt off! [list of overstated work here]”).
There are differences in what each considers 100%. There’s embarrassment when “giving your all” is much less than the other gives; different people have different limitations and different perspectives on those limitations (”I’m tired, I’m done, I’m going to go read for a while” vs “this $#!^ has to get done, even if I collapse at 3AM”). And there’s differences in what each thinks needs doing (dirty dishes can be left on table/counter overnight, vs should be washed/dried/stored ASAP). If you’ve given what you think is your all, you’re burned out, and you think the other is wasting time doing things that don’t need doing now, you might very well not be inspired to intimate action.
And some people just think verbose enumeration of what needs doing is enough, berating the other for not having done what hasn’t been done (of which and overlooking what has).
Sometimes one just gets wrapped around the axle of the endless list of what needs doing, while the other acts out Sisyphus forever pushing the boulder of chores up the hill - not conducive to nookie.
Quit worrying about my sex life and start worrying about all of the predatory criminal trolls on your website!
Sounds like Mzz Sandberg needs to go make a sandwich.
“Women don’t want to have sex with Beta Males who do housework. “
How much would you like to bet on that?
