Hope, I have brothers and when I think about it, we, as women were taught to scan rooms and see what needed doing, to offer to help the hostess, etc. but they just sit and "enjoy" the party. They were never "taught" how to do stuff so of course they don't know! My brothers had to do dishes and chores like I did but our day was before guys took home economics so what they learned was "survival" stuff that they didn't imagine doing all the time! I was lucky because my husband is the oldest of 4 brothers and was the "babysitter" and dishwasher! He worked as a dishwasher in a club too as a teen so he's "into" doing dishes so we have a pretty good arrangement where I cook and he does the dishes. Of course, he does the dishes when he feels like it rather than when the cook needs the dishes :-) but I'm still working on that LOL
