No, for it is all in how you look at it. I do that, and I am guy, so I guess we fill both sides of the coin!

fueling...there's nothing female about those chores...they need doing in any home, and men often do them...

No, not at all. The idea behind feminism is that women are FREE TO CHOOSE the roles they wish to fulfill. If your preference is to be domestic, be domestic. If your preference is to be CEO of a Fortune 500 company, that is equally fine. What IS sexist is to assert that women are only qualified to do cooking, cleaning, etc. ("...let's keep um barefoot and pregnant, dadgum!"). Or that because women are the primary doers of those jobs, that makes those jobs less worthy ("That's women's work"). Speaking as a guy who did *all* of the housework during the last few years of his marriage, that both demeans women and shows a lack of respect for the time and effort it takes to do domestic jobs PROPERLY. . . .

We all have our roles in a household in order to make it functional. I (as a male) do the cooking, my lady does the laundry. It is not an issue of sexual organs it is a function of dividing the workload.
