Haha...
I believe that every guy checks out girls, unless he is really smitten to you till the extent that he forgets everything else(which is rare even if you are drop-dead gorgeous head to toe).
My boyfriend does not admit that he looks at girls, occasionally he just acts as if nothing happens. However if he does check them out, he will say something like,"Hey, that girl has a good figure, but if you just work out a little, i bet you will look so much better then her". I guess guys have different responses.
Considering housework.... ummm, we aren't exactly even married yet, haha~ but he does cook and compliment my housework at times. Certain guys are still old fashioned, they totally feel that the women ought to be the ones to do it.
So... um, what say you?

Hope that helped.
