Its not my opinion, its what I have realised. When I see hollywood movies, i find that the husband helps wife in household activities like utensils washing, cleaning the lawn, cooking dinner but in Indian movies neither we find them in movies nor they really exists..
Men here have a myth in their mindset that cooking, washing, cleaning, taking care of child...all are the permanent responsibilities of women. Why is it so...why they cannot change..
Rather they give suggestions...my mom has done all then why not you...
After few generation, indian women will try to get married to an english man only. They don't want to get married to slavery.

Its really good Sunil that you help and share the load, but my post is only differentiating the men in United States and those who are in India. They do not want a lady to make roti at home, they need a life partner with whom they can live the life. With the update in educational system, Men has changed which is good and acceptable but still when the groom comes to see to be bride, he asks, whether she knows cooking?
why does he want to know that... there are many men in my country to disagree that they do the following:-
1. while shaving, the basin remains full of foam and even after that.
2. they never knew where are their clothes
3. what is there in dinner tonight is their usual question instead of I am cooking tonight.
4. while taking out one handkerchief , they can mess up with other ironed clothes
5. even the child wants his working mom to be back with dad and thereafter help him in homework.

@sunilparthan I can bet that either you have seen your dad helping your mom or your mom has always told you to respect women, at least you believe that earlier it exist, it has not completely changed yet.
I said hollywood movies, because I really didn't wanted to dig it direct, its true. we are getting education, learning and so changing. 50% remote areas of my country still are without education, do you really think those women are getting help in carrying their water pots from river. not at all.

Customs change slowly. In India I believe there are arranged marriage among other differences from the occidental ways.

Its the upbringing and the old customs. the families which have decided to change has dropped it but in the remote villages of India, the scenario is still the same.

@nomus24g again don't lets generalize. This is not a men vs women thing.
Both have their strengths and weaknesses.

@sunilparthan I am sorry I think you have misunderstood. i was not clear maybe.
my 'don't generalize" is for Shreyasi das's posts.
I am glad you help out at home.And all the people I mentioned also take part equally in household chores.
