Men who do more housework get more sex

09 November, 2009 06:37:00 Staff Contributor

Women have long since hinted that seeing men do house work is akin to an aphrodisiac, but it’s all coming out in to the open now!

Women are definitely turned on by their men wielding vacuum cleaners and steam irons

Surveys have actually been conducted to test the veracity of this new age phenomenon and found it to be true.

Appreciation is what turns us on

There’s something more at play here than a woman turning randy at the sight of her man doing the laundry. It’s all about appreciation…when the guy takes over the housework the woman feels appreciated and not taken for granted.

All those warm, fuzzy feelings take over and she wants to return the appreciation the womanly way – in the bedroom.

It’s not a trade off – don’t get me wrong

It’s a simple fact that when a man does the housework, the stress is off the woman and she is in a more conducive mood and willing to work out in the bedroom. Men on the other hand like to burn off stress by having sex, but women are structured differently.

Men are finding out that their wives have actually begun to initiate sex ever since they took over the house work

There’s a lesson here – when the woman works all day and then has to come home to housework and babies all thoughts of sex go out the window.

It’s not all about sex you know

Let’s not be misled – housework is actually a very important aspect of marriage. When there is a sharing of the housework, studies have shown that affairs are more infrequent and separation and divorce rare.

Obviously there has to be some truth to the fact that men doing housework really turn the women on and keep them faithful.

Since the dawn of civilization women have been cast in the mold of homemaker and have been doing household chores tirelessly, accepting it as part of their role as woman and wife.

However, times have changed and more women are now getting an education, holding full time jobs and relentlessly pursuing careers, climbing ladders to success with no time for household chores.

It is unfair to expect a woman to work all day and still come home to housework

Moreover, it is really unfair to expect a woman to hold a full time job and then come home to a sink full of dirty dishes, piles of laundry and cat puke on the living room carpet!

Lets get real here for a minute and consider this scenario – the woman works a long day, then comes home to a messy home so she starts vacuuming and picking up and the guy is just lounging on the couch.

I mean seriously, do you think that would put her in the mood for sex – it’s probably the very last thing on her mind because foremost on her mind is the fact that she would like to punch the so and so!

Consider what is REALLY being said in this article

There’s some psychology at work here so before you blow off this article, pause a minute to consider what is really being said here.

It’s not that women reward their hardworking men who do household chores with sex – they do and they don’t. By that I mean it’s not some crass trade off but a reciprocation of affection and appreciation at play.
