lol @ the responses here.
no its not unreasonable for both you and your wife to have an equal amount of responsibilities/duties which contribute to your household together, whatever those may be. but there must also be mutual respect for one another. it's equally disrespectful for her to be a slackass lazy butt and not contribute to the chores as it is for you to order her to do it. sounds like some effective communication is in order between the two of you.
hell, i dont think my husband has ever washed a dish or cleaned a bathroom, vacuumed, dusted, anything in the two years since we've been married. i do all that shit, plus i work well over 40 hrs per week AND i make slightly more money than he does. it's all good because he does stuff like take out the garbage & recycling (of course I have to alert him when it's ready to go out), handles all the finances, and change the oil in the cars, etc. he will sometimes go to the store for me when i dont feel like it, and we share all the other responsibilities in our house.
