Who should do the laundry?

I do my own laundry just incase my girlfriend finds the extra cash in my pocket she won't be able to take it.

I think this depends on your life situation.

Plate: Handle your own shit, her purpose in your life is primarily sex and allowing her to do too much of this will definitely set the tone that this is a monogamous relationship and not what it actually is.

Dating/LTR: you should be doing your own laundry, dishes, coking, housework etc since you have your own place and it is your responsibility to maintain a decent lifestyle. However, allowing her to do these things in an LTR that might be headed towards marriage is a good idea since it can be a helpful screening tool on whether or not she has anything to offer you beyond sex. I will add that in this situation you should also be willing to help her with "manly" things. Mowing, car maintenance, fixing sinks etc.

If you are married then i would say that the vast majority of all "housework" is her responsibility since in a RP marriage she will most likely be at home while you work and she needs to pull her weight so to speak. I do want to add that this doesn't mean that all housework is somehow beneath you since you are such a strong alpha dominant stud or some shit so handle it on a case by case basis. If her day was incredibly busy handling things outside of the home and the house needs some TLC when you get home there is nothing wrong or "beta" with tag teaming the nightly chores so you can spend more of your night together and such.

TL:DR Plates: Handle your own life, Dating/LTR: Handle yourself but letting her do some of this can be helpful for vetting. Marriage: Should primarily be her responsibility but don't see it as a huge issue if you need to help out sometimes.

I am not sure I'll ever be able to trust another woman (to do my laundry) ever again.

Allowing past girlfriends to help with my laundry has rarely gone well. Women don't have functional pockets on many of their clothes and use purses to haul their important shit. Men use pockets. Consequently many don't check them before chucking things into the wash. USB drives, phones, check books, headphones, MP3 players... I've lost too many of those because girlfriends who were genuinely trying to help just neglected to check pockets on my shirts and pants.
