Help isn’t just used in the context of a person doing something and another person with a secondary contribution. It’s also the word used for two people working together on a common goal.

We’re helping eachother out.

You made a nice meal. Oh yes, but Steve and Joe were helping me cook. That doesn’t mean one was the cook, it means 3 people cooked to make a meal.

OP even says “when he doesn’t know how to help” implying all his chores are done and he still has energy so he gets advice on the next chore from his partner. Maybe it’s a chore his partner usually does, or maybe it’s a chore he didn’t notice needed to get done that she noticed. If she finishes her chores and has energy left she can ask for the same thing.

God you just want to see men as useless and women as heroes when we’re all just people in this world trying to make the best of things.

Oh no, think of the poor capitalists. They might get mad and stop giving us their crumbs!

Get their meals, eat the rich!
