Is Housework Sexy?

The title may seem like a bizarre question at first, but the answer is yes, in my opinion. I have to say, cooking and cleaning can be quite sexy, especially when my husband is the one doing them! The other day he was helping me with holiday cleaning, and I said (over the noise of the vacuum), "You look so hot when you're cleaning house."

He laughed. I laughed, but there is some truth to it. It makes me feel closer to him when he takes the time to help me. I believe most women find their men extra attractive when the guys help out more often.

It's not just about sex, it's about care and consideration and many other things. However, women who have men in their lives who want to do things for them, feel better about themselves and about their mates. They also have more energy for fun and for lovemaking when they aren't so overwhelmed with chores. Women are also more likely to be in the mood when they don't feel like the maid.

My husband, although he's one of the good guys, isn't generally big on housework. Who is? He doesn't always volunteer and I don't often ask for help. Yet, he's made it very clear that all I have to do is ask, and he's there. You won't find him vacuuming too frequently, but it sure was a big help the other day as I was rushed for time and trying to get too much done in one day. He also cooks sometimes.

This of course, goes two ways. Our husbands likely find us more attractive when we help them or do things that please them. My husband's favorite breakfast is biscuits and gravy, so I made him some as a treat to return the favor for all his help. Guess what he said as he entered the kitchen...

"You look so hot when you're cooking biscuits and gravy."
