The men transforming into female hybrids (and dab hands at dusting)



Modern women are turning their husbands into 'male-female hybrids' by ordering them to do a rising number of domestic chores, a relationship counsellor claims.

Women increasingly used to being in charge in the workplace are adopting the same policy at home, telling their men to perform traditional housewives' tasks such as the laundry, vacuuming and ironing.

As a result men are abandoning their natural manly instincts and becoming hybrids of both sexes, according to a book by relationship expert Francine Kaye.

Yes dear, right away: Men are increasingly being ordered to do household chores by their female partners

Mrs Kaye, who counsels dozens of couples every week, says she is seeing more and more relationship difficulties stem from the way that women treat their other halves.

She claims that women are so used to being bossy and decisive in the office that they end up taking charge when they get home.

Her book, The Divorce Doctor, claims there has been a rise of masculine-like females taking on traditional manly roles at home such as booking holidays, paying the bills and calling the plumber out.



Get to work: Ms Kaye says husbands are bullied into doing the household chores

Mrs Kaye says many women return from the office and bully their husbands into doing the housework.

She added: 'It's not entirely our fault, because the demands of the workplace have changed us, and brought out our more masculine side.

'But unfortunately we're taking that home with us every evening into the domestic sphere, and often bullying our men into submission.

'Many of us are so focused, decisive and assertive, that the only role left for our husbands is one where they comply and let us take charge - traditionally feminine traits.

'But the irony is, we don't actually want men like that, and we end up eventually resenting them for not being more dominant and fearless.'
