I posted this as a laugh. Things have been too serious recently. And let’s face it, the Irish Times is a joke and deserves to be treated as such.
Tl;dr: Brianna has unresolved issues with her mother.
Better not let the missus see this. She’ll be wanting me to do the babysitting next! I’ll just switch off the router and say the internet is down.
Is this another chatgpt article? Either way I’m not giving them the clicks
I wonder would I get a article in if it was slaggin off modern women(from a male perspective).
I haven’t read beyond the headline but I agree with the contents of said headline.
Same when I spend the day minding my child on my own and later get asked how the babysitting went – a father minding their own child isn’t babysitting. It’s parenting.

That Brianna Parkins exists should be a concern for her as she is clearly more expensive than ChatGPT. When papers embrace AI it’s her like that will be first out the door
It’s true. There was a study done called The Second Shift and constant polling shows it too. Men, and boys are socialised this way so it has to change from an early age. Even in our own home despite being aware of it I definitely do a smaller proportion of domestic work.
Loads of studies on it to demonstrate that it impacts relationships, creates resentment and the whole lot, but The Second Shift was one of my personal favourite reads on the subject.
The Irish Times- back to getting utter drivel and nonsensical opinion pieces from *real* humans.
Know a lad that does NOTING around the house, and he’s single!
Honest to god, his mother comes over to do a weekly clean. He also goes to her house daily for dinner, and to drop off laundry.
Fucking mental…….
Irish Times Editors: “Ok guys, make sure you keep getting trash opinion pieces on utter nonsense to drive outrage- just make sure the shite comes from a real person this time”.
More bait.. I’m glad the AI fuss has opened reader’s eyes to the shallow tat being passed off as journalism.
it’s from AI newspaper The Irish Times, so it should really red:
“Men, beep, boop, you don’t, Error Code 404, help, loading, around the, 55%, house if you, deep, durp, live in, 10001100, it”
Doing housework and sharing the child rearing duties is the low hanging fruit of maintaining a relationship. If two adults are sharing a home, they’re both responsible. Letting someone else do an unfair share of the work is a great way to slowly drive a wedge between you with small festering resentments. Doing housework is one of the easiest ways to show love and respect.
That said, it doesn’t mean each person has to do 50% of every job. Some people like to cook or do the gardens or laundry and maybe are a lot better at certain things. A good way to tackle the division of labour is to talk about it in advance. Discuss what you both think is fair, agree on it and do your share. Don’t fall into the trap of waiting to be told (common for men) or into the trap of saying nothing til you’re at breaking point (common for women). Be proactive. Tackle this stuff when it’s not urgent or fraught with anger and stress. You get more out of these talks when it isn’t part of an argument.
Another good thing to look into for couples is the concept of a love language. I thought it was airy fairy shite when I first heard about it but it bears out. We don’t all communicate love or expect love to be shown to us in the same way. So we can be in a relationship with someone, thinking they are not showing us any love because they don’t show it in the way we expect. Or we could think we’re expressing love but our partner isn’t picking up on it. I say it in this context because doing acts of service in the home is one type of love language.
I can’t read the article but the title is spot on, at least.
Brianna parkins definitely needs to work on her unresolved anger issues.
If you don’t stop posting and providing free clicks for ragebait and fuelling reactions to it they will never stop writing ragebait articles
Another misandrist who can’t deal with her own paranoia and irrational fears so she blames everyone else. Imagine feeling hatred for your partner because they’re not as paranoid as you are about a radiator being spotless.
You’d have to feel sorry for the chap. It’s therapy she needs ffs.
The fuck has happened journalism. Stop clicking these links. Stop reading these absurd stories.
Christ the Irish Times has really been poking at white male fragility this past week!
This looks like another case of someone blaming “society” for there problems instead of their own bad decision making (in this case, not picking the right partner to have children with).
My da literally does all of the housework bar cooking and washing clothes, 1 because if its not a fry up he’ll burn the house down, 2 because of several shrunken clothes incidents ma doesn’t trust him to do it

Why is there an assumption I help?
That is a relief. I will just watch tv so.
