Our readers matter most to us. We have opened a page for robust debate among you. This page does not have a political stand and should be read in that spirit. We do not seek either to offend or to appease. We strive to present all points of view but expressed in a civil manner. Speak up and be heard.

  • Men's lack of effort in domestic chores is a myth propagated by working women. 
     
  •  Exaggerating men’s uselessness at home makes women feel in control of domestic affairs.
     
  • Taking care of household chores is still an essential part of female identity.  
     
  • Working women nag their partners as they feel guilty for spending less time at home.

    Submission guidelines:
    The debate and poll will close on Tuesday, at midnight. Send us your arguments at readers@gulfnews.com. Please do send in your photographs if possible. The word limit is 150. We welcome all points of view, as long as they are within the bounds of civil discourse. We will edit for length and clarity, to accommodate as many voices as possible. You could also sound off below by clicking on the Post a Comment link.
