We're about 75/25 and both work full-time. He'll vacuum the easy areas, take out the trash (once a week of it), help load and unload the dishwasher, clean the bathroom (excluding the shower/tub), and feed the dog and cats (most of the time). I get the rest - cooking, laundry, and pretty much anything not otherwise specified as his.

He is gradually doing a little more, though. Ironically, what got him started was buying a boat. He and our son (who's now away at college) like to go fishing - I'm kind of a hydrophobe and don't get along with boats. They started out just heading off to the lake - whenever - and letting the housework slide 'til later. They seemed to feel a little guilty about leaving me out of the fun, plus they got tired of hearing me gripe about the housework not being done. I pointed out that if the housework was out of the way, it wouldn't bother me if they wanted to go enjoy some fishing - especially if they alternated fishing trips with some family bike rides. They seem to like that incentive.
