I for one NEVER HAD THAT COMPLEX  (THANK GOD!)
I'll chop the pyaz and he's put it in haandi. Sometimes he grills. He Vacums - I DUST. He put the luandry into the washer and dryer and I fold and put it away. Each one of us takes one child to put to bed. (He gets the easier one)
Your chores double with kids. So there is no other way.
Sometimes we do ROCK PAPER SCISSORS for whose turn it is to change the diaper

I agree with you, it can b 50/50, some women have complexes (Some MEN have a BIGGER COMPLEX about it), and I also have NEVER had that complex either!
On days I'm working, if hubby gets up first he prepares breakfast, when I get down its ready. If I get up first, then I make it ready.
Off to work. I usually come back first, then do any majorly important housework, lounge around, get food ready. If he gets back first, he gets the food ready.
Have dinner, wash up - not much to wash usually.
Vacuuming any of us do, usually he vacuums (BUT leaves the corners!) and I put things away.
When cooking for guests, he chops everything for me and we both cook it. Mostly I cook and he washes along the way so that the kitchen is not over run.
On days that I'm not working, I do most of the stuff.
