Do you believe in “gender roles” in a lesbian relationship?

No, I do not believe gender roles should be defined in any relationship.

Same as you both. I don't see the relevance of it.

it's so prevalent in lesbian relationships

Perhaps in situations where one person is "carrying" the other, the one without the financial means seeks to compensate in kind?

True... And in situations like those, you can't even point fingers.

Also, I've read a few stories where it's intentional. In countries where homosexuality is recognized, you have one partner who works and the other stays home or works from home and also manages the home and births the kids. 

Is it still gender roles if both partners agree that 'this is what it should be', and it works for them. Should it still be frowned upon?

Honest opinion? To each her own. Lol. It makes the world a happier place.

l think in all relationships, roles should be well defined if necessary.  like for instance, some people are very domestic while some are not.e.g me But l always try my best to do the necessary things when need be.  l once had a friend who can wash  the cloths in the world but she hates to press them so her and her partner came to understanding about that, Her partners loves to cook so she washes and clean the house while her partner presses and cook most times. It was lovely on how they manage that.

My ex always act as if she is being cheated so she always compel me to do equal amount of things she has done. like if she has prepared meal the day before or for two days, she will come straight out to me to say is my turn that she has been the one cooking since or driving since. I always found it funny that she keeps record of all that.😀 

l am of the opinion of  if you love somebody, what ever you do or the number of times you do it, shouldn't count. Otherwise it will begin to feel like the relationship is friends with benefits. 

Pls you are welcome to judge me if you feel am wrong.😀
