because it implies that
(1) women withhold sex for reasons like "you didn't do the house work"
(2) sort of restating, women use sex as a reward for when men do things for them
(3) women some how find men doing housework in itself sexy
i think women who do (1) and (2) are despicable and stupid. You can't really argue with three, if that's what turns you on, but it certainly doesn't turn me on.
I can sort of understand the whole "it's not doing housework that's sexy in itself, it's that he's showing he cares about you" angle, but the underlying assumption there is that housework is the woman's job and when a man pitches in, it's like he's doing the woman a favor, sacrificing himself on her behalf. And that's BS too, if you believe in housework parity.
