In my relationship, we pick up each other's slack. If he's busy, and I'm not as busy, I clean more. If he's not as busy, and I'm busy, he cleans more. We trade off on cooking, though if I'm busy in the evening (and doing what I do, I often am) he has no problem cooking an extra night. If he were working full-time and I were not, I would fully expect to be largely responsible for the care of the household; that's just how the division of work comes out to being fair in my eyes. Similarly, if the reverse were true, I would expect him (and I suspect he would agree to do so) to step up and do the housework.
