Something that Lindsay Donnelly is currently facing.\n</p><h3>Disgruntled About Housework\n</h3><p>Lindsay Donnelly from Connecticut has become TikTok famous after deciding to boycott housework and recording the results. The mom of 2 disclosed that both she and her husband work full-time. She also explained and that he does the \u201cmajority of the cooking.\u201d However, a problem arose when he made a comment about how she does nothing, including housework. She notes the pair often tried to share those responsibilities but was still unhappy about his comment. After all, it minimizes her everyday efforts.\n</p><p>\u201cThe night he made the comment, I was getting the kids ready for bed, and he was cleaning up in the kitchen,\u201d Donnelly explained. \u201cI noticed he was kind of grumpy and I was like, \u2018What\u2019s going on?\u2019 And that\u2019s when he made the comment about me doing nothing around the house.\u201d\n</p><p>Deciding not to be grumpy back, \u201cI didn\u2019t want to yell and scream and fight about it. I wanted to prove a point in a funny way.\u201d Lindsay said.\n<figure style='\"width:' class='\"wp-caption' aligncenter><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/secretlifeofmom.com%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2023%5C/06%5C/dirty-bathroom.webp%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"720\"' height='\"912\"' title='\"\"'><figcaption class='\"wp-caption-text\"'>Image Credit: @lindsaydonnelly | TikTok\n<h3>Housework Debate Goes Viral\n</h3><p>The TikTok video now has more than 17 million views and has generated quite a lot of feedback. In the viral video explaining his comment, she would give him a visual of how much housework she does. She shows the kitchen and floors out of order. She shows how piled up the laundry has gotten and how gross the bathroom has become. The situation got even worse when Lindsay went out of town for a girls\u2019 trip, and the house became even more overrun with clutter and filth.\n</p><p>Ultimately, after gaining a new perspective, Lindsay\u2019s husband did apologize for his remark. But not before she posted a second video in which she jokingly stated, \u201cmight accidentally roast you in a TikTok video and let 7 million people join in on the fun.\u201d Although she does share that her husband is \u201calmost perfect\u201d it seems many women are unamused by his antics.\n</p><div style='\"width:' class='\"wp-video\"'><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class='\"wp-video-shortcode\"' id='\"video-87376-1\"' width='\"576\"' height='\"1024\"' preload='\"metadata\"' controls='\"controls\"'><source type='\"video\/mp4\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/echowoven.com%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2024%5C/10%5C/Then-I-left-town-for-a-girls-trip%5Cu2026.mp4?_=1%5C%22"></source><a href="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/echowoven.com%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2024%5C/10%5C/Then-I-left-town-for-a-girls-trip%5Cu2026.mp4%5C%22">https:\/\/echowoven.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Then-I-left-town-for-a-girls-trip\u2026.mp4\n<h3>\nHousework Divides\n</h3><p>Unsurprisingly, his comment sparked some outrage because these days some comedy can be mistaken for malicious or cruel intended. Some women commented that they would not tolerate that kind of disrespect. One stated, \u201cMy future guy is gonna be walking on eggshells, because if he said something like this to me, I\u2019d just leave.\u201d Meanwhile, another shared, \u201cThis same thing happened to me.
