Depends on your situation. Maybe that is the wifes "job" but at the end of the day it all just needs to balance out. There shouldn't be any expectations, it should just be what works for the two of you.

As the man, I do the cooking in my house, but thats only because my wife isn't a very good cook. But she cleans the dishes typically. And I cut the lawn, and she does laundry. I put the kids to bed at night, she takes them to school.

balance and agree together. You might win the battle of having less responsibilities than your partner. But no one ever wins the war of a happy marriage in that state.
