My husband helps me at home or does his duty?

Hala Al Khatib - Beirut

When I asked this question: Does your husband help you at home? I imagined men who were relentlessly asking for many wives, and I would have liked to find a model that considers the house to be responsible too.

Surprisingly, a large number of men are rolling up their sleeves in their homes, and they feel that it is necessary to stop holding women - especially the workers - responsible for the cleanliness of the house in all its details, the children and the kitchen.

The man had previously argued that he worked abroad, and most women were raised as domestic work as their duty, and plunged into the details of "her kingdom" until she put forward outside this kingdom, until it was not in her favor to offer what her mother and grandmother used to offer home.

A man rebelled against the idea of ​​"Set House"
Abdullah Jubaili model Stini wanted to rebel long ago on the idea of ​​Set House. He always helped his mother from a young age in everything. Abdullah tells Al Jazeera Net that he and his wife lived in Paris after their marriage and worked together at home and abroad.

Jebaili says that when they immigrated to France immediately after marriage, the financial situation was bad, his wife Jean, who wants to wash clothes on her hands, asked him to go to be entertained with his friends, and he replied that he did not marry to be alone but to be together and cooperate together, and this is what happened in Marriage period for more than forty years.

"I am not saying I am helping my wife at home, because that means that she is required to work at home. I am saying my wife is working at home and learning what I do not know."

When his wife travels abroad for long periods of time, he does not need and does not accept the help of his sister or neighbor. He does not consider the house to be a woman's specialty. "This is my approach and my way at home."

We all live at home and care about it
Farah Hussein tells that although she is not working, this does not prevent her husband from helping her with the things he knows at home, as well as the two boys, ages 7 and 8.

"Our children taught us that we all live in this house and we all care about it," Farah said.

Farah had two boys who helped arrange and wash the laundry, arranging their room, evacuating and wicksan. Her husband does not consider that work at home is not his duty, being working abroad, but sharing what allows him time, the fact that his wife Farah full-time home.

He works in his house and helps himself

Laila believes that this made them also understand the things of the house it helps a lot, especially in things that do not like to do such as filling water, but does not like the arrangement of purposes.

Farah Malaeb says her husband does not help her "work at home and help himself". He cares about washing and washing as she prepares food and cares about their dog. Farah does not feel obliged to do any work because she is a wife, especially since she works for long hours, sometimes with the help of cleaning.

Nawara al-Khatib, the mother of four children, is not working and her husband helps her with all the household and children's details, from changing diapers to washing and washing, except cooking. He also cares about children at night if she is asleep.

Couples working outside and inside the house
