In my world there is a big difference. On Mother's day, I made breakfast in bed for the wife. Handed her a bunch of DVDs to watch all day and she got to do whatever she wanted all day long. I cooked all 3 meals, cleaned the house with my 2 sons, and basically let her have a quiet relaxing day.
On Father's day, I was guilted into going over to my Grandmother in law's house to dig a trench for her gutter drainage system for 4 hours. After that, I had to go to my niece's birthday party that isn't for another 2 weeks, but they thought it would be more convenient to have it on Father's day since everyone would be there, so I spent my Father's day digging a ditch and watching a pre-teen open presents.
Yay.
Sounds pretty normal. Last year I was asked what I wanted to do. "Go fishing by myself with a six pack and a lawnchair and a couple sandwiches. Enjoy a nice day in the mountains with no one complaining (wife and daughter hate to do things like that)
I got to cook for a family and friends BBQ.
