That one exists in german with a german, italian and turkish wife. The german and italian wife get their husbands to do housework. The turkish wife got beat up.

I feel like this joke is okay, because its degrading to both genders. YAY!

I wouldn't marry a man who expected me to do all that every day. I'd be happy to make him a meal sometimes because I enjoy cooking but I'd want us to share the cooking duties as well as the cleaning duties. Marriage is supposed to be about spending the rest of your life with someone you really love, not about having a maid/cook move in and slave over a stove/scrub the floors for the next 50 or 60 years. The marriages that last the longest are the ones where both partners respect each other, communicate and share their lives. I don't see marriages like the ones in the "joke" lasting very long. The last part is pretty horrible regardless of gender. Violence against your partner because they won't do something for you is despicable.

I think its horrible all the way around. What asshole marries someone and then orders them to do anything? (notice the gender-neutral stance)

All 3 of those women should have just filed for divorce because they married an asshole and been done with it. Also, domestic violence isn't the solution no matter who it comes from.

marriage is supposed to be beneficiary to both partners.

i would not marry a woman who did not cook and clean.

Men are still marrying women like this? Why?
