Why would it mean you do all the housework and your job doesn’t matter? That’s only the case if your partner thinks your job doesn’t matter. It’s not a function

Why would it mean you do all the housework and your job doesn’t matter? That’s only the case if your partner thinks your job doesn’t matter. It’s not a function of income difference, it’s a function of how much your spouse supports you in your endeavors. You can still be equal partners even with vastly disparate incomes simply by treating each other as equals. It’s entirely in your control, as a couple. If my wife wanted to work a job that earns a fraction of what mine does, I’d still split all the housework equitably because she is my equal no matter what job she works.
