Letter: Come the glorious day, sister, men will do their share
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.ANY sensible man should know to steer clear of the distinctly dodgy debate on the division of chores between the sexes.
I am, however, always amazed when newspaper articles on the subject emphasise, as their piece de resistance, that men absolutely will not clean lavatories.
Given a large dose of ecologically unfriendly cleaner and strong brush, lavatory cleaning is a doddle and infinitely easier than vacuuming or washing up.
If tactical retreat is necessary, men should seriously consider this option, which is apparently allocated a points value greatly exceeding its true cost in labour.
