At home, my wife expects me to be a gentleman, so I open her car doors, etc. and pamper her as best I can.

Not that she isn't liberated, but we have worked out the battle of the sexes thing. I do the dishes and housework, and I don't complain (or snicker) when she tries her hand at carpentry. In fact, since I'm allergic to grass, having her do the mowing works best for us.
