It is raising men with empathy Families functioning like they should when issues arise Dealing with ourselves with the fear of Allah Of course, I am not against a woman making her own money but it shouldn't be in anticipation of a man treating her terribly.

Recently I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about being asked to clean an Airbnb when they’ve already paid a cleaning fee As a host, I find this attitude quite worrying My wife and I rent out the apartment in Germany. We charge a €145 cleaning fee, and we still expect guests to: 1. Strip the beds and start a wash, separating whites from colours 2. Wash, dry and put away all dishes 3. Sweep and mop the floors 4. Take out all rubbish, separating paper, cardboard, clear glass, coloured glass, plastics, metal, organic waste and residual waste 5. Take bottles with a deposit to the supermarket return machine. 6. Send photos showing the apartment is ready before the 8:30am checkout These tasks must be completed before departure. If you have an early flight, allow time the evening before The cleaning fee pays for professional cleaning. It does not pay for someone to pick up after you Here in Europe, we teach children to leave a place as they found it I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect the same from adults on holiday

We were doing the “what role would you play in the apocalypse” thing at work today and I said “I’d opt out” and I got very shocked looks. Apparently the response of “look how men treat women now without the world needing repopulated” wasn’t the right answer. Whoops.
