Do men really not know how to do housework?


Cat Bro has a close friend—a friend of his since childhood. From small to big, he’s always thought his dad is lazy and doesn’t like doing housework, and Cat Bro knows this too.
Later, because his mom often blamed his dad for not doing housework, they fought a lot—there was a period when his parents even separated.
His dad moved into a small room left behind by his grandma.
The place was under 50 square meters—one of those old, run-down apartments, the kind.
There was only a bed, a rattan armchair, and a small TV—about that.
Cat Bro once went with him to visit.
He originally thought it would be a complete mess.
But in the end, the floor was very clean.
The kitchen was also tidy.
The trash was taken out every day.
His clothes were washed clean and neatly too.
Everything just felt orderly and well managed.
When we left later, Cat Bro still asked him, “You said your dad doesn’t do housework—doesn’t that mean the house might be messy?”
He chuckled and told Cat Bro, “Maybe it’s just that your mom cares too much about details.
For example, my mom’s requirements are:
Furniture must have dust covers;
Things must be arranged neatly;
There must be a trash can in every room;
And clothes also have to be folded perfectly neat—there are too many requirements like that.
In that moment, he seemed to realize:
Maybe his dad wasn’t really incapable of doing housework.
It’s just that the ‘housework’ in his parents’ eyes is completely different from what he thinks.”
What do you think about this?
