s/o man vent

What does your DH do (or doesn't do) that a stereotypical man does?

I used the words do and does way too much there.  But you get my point.

He does almost all of the cleaning.

He hates video games.  We have an XBOX360 that gets used mostly as a DVD player.  I think he owns 2 games total.

He waits for the ice cube fairy to fill the ice trays.

The stereotypical canadian male is a hockey loving, beer guzzling sport addict.

My DH hates all sports and doesn't drink.

Mr. J loves him some pedis. And he hates to hunt/fish/camp...pretty much anything outdoorsy.

Atypically, DH vacuums and cleans the bathroom.

Typically, he expects me to have dinner on the table every night when he gets home. But I love cooking for him, and definitely prefer it over cleaning the bathroom, so it works out great.

Hmmm, there's a TP fairy in my house.

He rarely opens doors for me. ?He says it's because he wants to know I won't be standing, staring at a closed door not knowing what to do :-)

The only sport my husband gets into watching is tennis, all other sports aren't his thing.  He mopes a little when he has to go to work instead of working from home, he prefers to stay home with DS full-time.

MH is the neat freak of the house, although I usually do the choresy type stuff.  He likes to straighten and dust though.

He is not into sports at all.  The only reason he talks football is because he works for an LSU apparel store and customers come in assuming he can chat about stat's and last weekend's game.  He brushes up on the bare minimum so he doesn't come off as completely cluless.

I guess where he works is different too.  He works for the clothing store, I work for the construction company!

He could talk about guns all day though, so I guess he gets his 'man card' back for that.  I guess.

DH thinks that any sign of affection in public is "gay". (holding hand is ok, but hugging or any other affectionate thing around other guys isn't permitted. He's to much of a manly man for any of that stuff (or so he thinks), it drives me nuts.

He is a typical football obsessed, video game playing, beer drinking, grillmaster.

He also gets choked up over College Gameday feature stories, talks in baby talk, is not afraid to cry, and is overall a sap.

I become a fantasy football widow every fall as he is in not one, but THREE leagues.

He likes to fold laundry though.

Dh doesn't like football, or any sport for that matter.

He does all this own laundry, and irons all his pants and shirts.  He sucks at folding laundry though.
