Learn to clean bathrooms.

1) Your girlfriend, wife, Significant Other will love you for volunteering to clean it.
2) It's really not that hard, but sounds yucky so most people don't like to
3) It gets you out of the way while your wife, gf, SO cleans the rest of the house. (This is a really good thing... trust me)
4) Go to Lowe's and buy the industrial strength cleaners. Avoid anything with a pretty bottle. You want the money spent on solvents, not paint for the can.
5) Using the aforementioned cleaners, you need a roll of paper towels and about 10 minutes... milk it for about three hours. No one will complain as long as the bathroom sparkles.
6) Don't clean unless it is really gross or company is coming over. This ensures you have a job... that you want.

If you run out of bathroom cleaning... vacuuming is very painless as well and can be fun if you get to pick out the vacuum cleaner. They make some really kick *ss ones now. Have fun.

Advice to YOUNG MEN! You weren't supposed to read it! ;)

Trust me. This is the way to go. You get kudos and adulations for all your 'hard work'.
 
And I thought I was the only one.

It's probably best to keep this information away from the women folk out there. I'd hate for the misses to discover how I ride the chore clock.

Is there a smiley with a whip?

Was your wife looking over your shoulder when you typed this?

Did you lose a bet?

I'm not doing any housework. I got married so I wouldn't have to do any.

My wife doesn't do any of the outdoor chores, thats why she got married.

If my wife mows the lawn,trims bushes, takes care of the dogs,works on the car etc I might be inclined to do some in home cleaning,until then :silly:

Right on! I clean bits and pieces everywhere, but come on.
 
I generally find if you do anything related to cleaning of your own volition they tend to be impressed...
 
In our house, you clean up after yourself. Anything left over is for everyone. Why? Because Hubby and I both work more than full-time and have three teenagers. If it isn't clean to our expectations, dinner is not made or served until everyone pitches in. And no you cannot make a peanut butter sandwich - the kitchen is off limits until it is done.

Same goes for the outside.

If one of us asks, the others do. Why? We pay the bills.

If we all pitch in, it gets done quickly and efficiently. No one feels like they have been overworked or used.
