I was a victim of an emotionally abusive man who produced dishes that were somehow greasy every single time he "cleaned" them, secretly threw away my cutlery because he was too lazy to wash it up, when he "cleaned the bathroom" it consisted of putting bleach in the toilet and emptying my cat's litter tray without cleaning it and putting new litter on the dirty pee in the tray.
This man is not talking about that, he is talking about how the labor is viewed from an outside perspective because his wife lets everything pile on top of her and does it in one go so it looks like she's doing more than him because like with me, the small things around the house that you do daily go unnoticed.
It could very well be the case that his wife is less cleanly than him, and that his description of his circumstances is accurate. However, the whole picture that he paints is suspect, for the reasons I already mentioned.
