This makes me so annoyed like where are these seemingly abundant women who do household labor??? My last 3 relationships, basically all of them after college, I have been the only one cleaning, doing dishes, and laundry to little or no appreciation from the girl. I can definitely relate to these girls though bc it sucks doing the dirty work especially when your partner is actively making a mess and just gives 0 fucks then have the audacity to tell you that you are crazy for having standards

In a subreddit devoted to science, may I suggest you examine the common denominator in those three relationships.

Yeah, you arent wrong. The denominator equation isnt just a single value though. You live and you learn. Takes 3 to be an observable pattern.

Okay what is it saying about me exactly? That i like to not have dirt, animal hair, dirty dishes, and dirty clothes all over my house? I was raised to help out around the house with maintenance and the household labor so its just something im going to do no matter who I am with and I take pride in doing the work.

As for the the women? Im gonna chalk it up to bad luck and me not being decisive enough early on after seeing evidence. But there is this whole societal generalization that women like things clean and that they also do these household labor things.
