Who does what (in the house)?

Asked by rebbel (35550points) August 24th, 2011

Fluther is full of emancipated Jellies, who value equality highly (I think and I assume).
So, tell me please, in your household (that is, if you are living together with a partner) who does what and is it evenly spread (which ratio)?
There was an interesting tv series on the BBC some months ago where they observed couples, 24/7, to see how much each person of a couple did in the household.
Not only that, they also asked each person how much time they (thought they) spend to do the chores they did, compared also to their partner.
It was interesting to see that some couples had it completely wrong (for example: John thought 60% for him, 40% for her and Anita thought 80% for her to 20% for him, and it turned out that John did 75% to 25% for Anita)
Care to give your honest estimates?
Edit: I forgot to give my numbers.
When my girlfriend and I live together I think it is rebbel 65% to Mrs. rebbel 35%
