New post on my blog: Promoting Gender Equality By Sharing The Load
URL: http://2brahulprabhakar.blogspot.in/2015/03/promoting-gender-equality-by-sharing.html
Excerpt:
The thing about a successful marriage is that it is never about an individual or a gender per se but a team. Sadhna and I have continued to build our nine-year-old relationship on love, respect, and trust. Both of us work full-time and realize that it doesn’t get any easier with two kids around. So we share responsibilities without letting our egos get in the way.
In the Prabhakar household, there is no distinction between a man and a woman. No bias at all. If I see an untidy room, I go clean it.
Ditto for laundry.
I don’t expect the Mrs to do the laundry every time. There are days when Sadhna would return from the school fully exhausted. I try to pep her up by making tea or coffee, ordering food online (so she doesn’t have to cook), and doing laundry. This is the least I can do for her.

The art of soiling what is clean
http://passey.info/2015/04/the-art-of-soiling-what-is-clean/
“I stopped, whirled around but before I was able to execute that flying kick, I opened my eyes and saw her there beside my bed, smiling. It didn’t take me long to understand that my adventure was over and that I was back home in the world where I was born. Dreamtime was up. I sat up straight and said, ‘Good morning! I just saved us all from a group of hardy terrorists tonight and was about to come splashing to you through mud and slush. Some adventurous soiling is what sensual dreams are made of.’
‘Good that you’re back in the real world. A few of your adventure-soiled clothes are also waiting to be cleaned,’ she said, pointing to the pile on her side of the bed. I remembered that I was to take the #WashBucketChallenge and transform a pile of soiled clothes into as clean as possible…”
Here’s my post! My dad too the challenge 🙂

Thank you Ariel for this wonderful campaign that is not just inspiring men to #sharetheload, but also decoding the laundry process for them. Men who hitherto thought that laundry was a tricky women-only domain now know that good quality detergent can make laundry quick and easy for anyone.
I did take the Wash Bucket Challenge 🙂 What about you?
