the acceptance of communicated expectations is pivotal.

The traditional marriage where the male earns the income and the female raises the kids and maintains the home remains one of the best forms of marriage. A married couple that is into swinging can be successful. A rare - but growing in number - marriage where the female is the bread winner can be great as well. The key is finding the partner who feels the same way and at the minimum accepts the expectations communicated.

No aspect of the relationship can be overlooked. Everything from housework to intimacy should be covered to the extent that there are no surprises. Too often, men and women behave one way prior to marriage and different once married (some of that has to do with suppressed individuality). Once a specific topic is breached it is up to each to accept or decline. Either way, each should clearly understand where each stands followed by the appropriate rational action instead of taking action based on assumptions.

Again, the answer to the question," Is sharing housework the key to successful marriage," is - no.

Sharing the housework can be a part of a successful marriage. Additionally a marriage where the woman does the all the housework can be successful. Today, you may even have the male doing all the housework. Each can be a successful marriage. In my opinion, it solely depends on communicated and accepted expectations.
