No, it's not retarded. Here's the thing, it works both ways. Chores have to be done. The bills also have to be paid.

EVERYTHING can be broken down into finances. The chores that need to be done can be monetized into the value of having them done for you. The bills are already monetized. Let's say you have 3k worth of bills a month. Thats a lot. The man works hard to pay them. If he is bad at his job he gets fired and the bills dont get paid. Then you have a stay at home mom who is shit at her job you come home to a messy house and unruly kids. This is unbalanced.

If you monetize the bills and the chores TOGETHER, and split them EVENLY, then you have a system of accountability and responsibility and expectation and respect. If she stays at home she CANT make money in any real sense to pay money for the cost of the bills, so she takes on more CHORES to cover her side of the expenses. If she is doing MORE value of work than half the total expenses is worth, then she DESERVES some spending money because she is WORKING for it(the monetary income allowing for it). If the monetary income does not ALLOW for that then the man SHOULD PICK UP MORE CHORES to balance it again.

This sets expectations and prevents resentment and abuse from both sides. Everyone knows their job, their worth, and can be held accountable for their performance.

If you feel otherwise you aren't looking for a wife and partner you are looking for an easy mark to scam into being cheap labor for you

The only value in monetizing necessary household tasks and chores is determining if it is more valuable to hire someone to do them for you and you continuing to work, usually a useful metric for people with decently paying jobs. Or maybe when determining a child's allowance.

If you need to audit your entire household budget and tasks constantly to figure out how to give "spending money" then you are living well below your means and should worry about that first rather than some convoluted system of chore value.

This sets expectations and prevents resentment and abuse from both sides.

This very article proves this wrong. This woman has massively overvalued herself and the value of the chore. If you and your wife are amicable and agreeable enough to set hardstone values on a task without major disagreement (compromise will lead to resentment), then you are a couple who doesn't need this entire nonsense.

If the dinner is shit do I dock her pay? If the baby is extra destructive today does she demand more for her cleaning? If I believe dusting isn't as important and she is abusing our finances by doing it daily, who is in the right?

Once money is involved, these little thoughts turn from minor disagreements with little value to incredibly important arguments about our finances. Now the couple has to squabble and argue constantly because every single aspect of their life is revolving around money and their time value, their home life is a second job.

You don't audit it constantly. You use it as a foundation to set up proper expectations and realistic understanding. "Why don't you ever help me with the dishes" turns into happy compliance when you show them how much the house costs to run and how EASY IT WOULD BE TO HIRE A PROFESSIONAL AND REPLACE HER ASS IF SHES NOT DOING IT

when you show them how much the house costs to run

An abstract number versus an annoying action she is doing right now. Yes I see, where the problem is. You live in the world where women, and humans even, are perfectly logical and rational beings that operate entirely on that.

how EASY IT WOULD BE TO HIRE A PROFESSIONAL AND REPLACE HER ASS IF SHES NOT DOING IT

This runs entirely contrary to your earlier sentence on "looking for a partner and wife instead of a mark to use for her labor."

Also HITTING CAPS LOCK JUST MAKES YOUR POINT LOOK MORE SILLY.

No it doesn't. Women are, first and foremost, self serving and self focused. They view the world from their needs and wants and desires only. They don't comprehend the work you do out of their view, only what they are doing. When you show them how much the bills cost and how much it costs to keep her satisfied vs hiring someone to do what she does, it opens her eyes to say "oh. I see how I could be affected if I don't perform well, and I also see how I am being valued through his labor and my cost as well." Its not hard, and it works. I'm married to a straight dime who actually loves me, and we both respect each other's efforts which makes for less resentment or entitlement and more joy. The people not grasping this are also the people without that

Every woman would demand more than she's worth or use this as an excuse as to why she's going to work a full-time job instead of staying home with the kids.

I'm looking for a mother of my kids who is a wife. If I wanted to pay for a maid, I'd hire one. If I wanted to scam her for cheap labor I'd start a business and hire her full time.

I know how modern women work, that's why birth rates are down. Most women and I do mean most are not worth having children with and should be avoided if your purpose is children. You can still have fun with modern women for sex but for mothers, most are worthless.

You get going no-education-no-qualification rates: 10 bucks an hour... After the probationary period.

Thats exactly why I say this. Because bitches ALWAYS think they have it hard or don't get enough help etc. You show them how cheaply they can be replaced and they start working hard without complaint.

In what bizzarro world do you live in where you present facts to a woman and then she acts how you want her to based on the facts?

The woman is doing those chores for the benefit of herself and the child too, not just the husband, you stupid fucking retard.
