Let’s say both the guy and girl make the same amount of money and are both good at and enjoy cooking and cleaning.

Would it be wrong for a guy to want the girl to give equal contribution financially to the relationship if he’s also willing and capable of contributing equally to domestic duties?

In this same scenario, would it be wrong for him to expect her to cook and clean if he’s expected to handle the financial aspects of the relationship?

    different strokes for different folks

    We do

    [ (individual pay) / (total pay) ] * [ bills ]

    i.e. one of us earns 70% of the income, pays 70% of the bills (not counting personal subscriptions, student loan payments etc).

    I do slightly more housework, I think, it depends week to week. But I don’t mind, as some of those extra items are caring for our cat which I have a boundless resourcefulness for.
