There was a huge spider in the bath this morning. I am entirely capable of removing a spider, but, I hate it. So I woke DH up and asked him to do it. He of course did so without complaining.
But now I'm wondering, am I being a bit of a hypocrite? All hardcore feminist when it comes to my rights and place in the world but descending into wussie femaleness at the first sight of an eight-legged creature?
Admittedly, DH has things he irrationally hates and I take care of. Like flowers. He can't handle flowers, especially when they're dead so I have to dispose of any and all flowers in our house at all times because they freak him out. Does this make us even - partners who have strengths and weaknesses?
this is partly a serious and partly a light hearted thread. I am genuinely interested in opinions though.
