To help out or not: Nigerian Twitter users discuss the importance of helping with chores in a relationship

I don’t understand why people go to their partner’s house and think its ok to not do chores‘. ‘Ladies, quit complaining about not finding husbands if you can’t do chores‘, are some of the tweets that have been flying all over Twitter since yesterday.

Some argue that doing chores for your partner (or just anyone you visit) is a major ingredient to sealing a great relationship.

We’re not sure why exactly, but this is one topic that everyone seems to have an opinion on. While some (men) are appalled by the idea of women not wanting to help completely appalling, others (women) are amazed at how patriarchal society has become and believe that no one should have to deal with a partner that thinks doing chores is a prerequisite to walking down the aisle. This group believes that a man would gladly do chores with/for his woman and shouldn’t leave it for her alone to do.

For others, this shouldn’t be a big deal if you love someone while the rest (like us) find the argument completely boring and unnecessary.

So what do y’all think? How important is doing chores in a relationship?
