Should Men Be Forced by Law to Do Half the Housework？

It is really ridiculous that the Australian parliament was to lay down a law to force human being to do the housework.I can't reason out anything to explain that a government should meddle in the family life.In my opinion,nobody can divide equally the housework into two parts and tell what a man or a woman should do in a family.

Husband and Wife,enjoying the same right in a family,give their deep seated love to each other.On the one hand,Wife has no obligation to shoulder the heavy burden of all the housework.Neither does Husband.On the other hand,if they deal with the housework as the businessman does in a market,the family will come to its end.When one is at home,the other is still working outside,why doesn't he or she prepare everything for him or her and give him or her a sense of having a family?Why not comfort him or her if he or she comes back exhaustedly?Why do you just force Husband to do half?Why not the whole if he is free?If he loves his wife,is it necessary to force him?Therefore,it is not reasonable for any institution to interfere in a private life.It is not necessary to force Husband to do half of housework.
