[quote=Anonymous]So purely anecdotally, of all the married couples I know - I know exactly one or two (out of 40ish) marriages, where the both parents are working, and both parents have equal responsibilities in the home/children/family/social/domestic arena. In the overwhelming majority, are women who are not only working but also taking on the lions share of responsibilities in the home. By the way, that one marriage with the husband who actually does a bit more of the home responsibilities- we wives are very jealous! In a good way. Is this universal? Or is my sampling skewed? I feel like women are getting the shaft by being told they are expected to work and should work. I get that it's important to have that financial independence and for women to gain ground and equality in the working world. However, when the reality of marriage sets in, it ends up that they also take on most of the household and family responsibilities on top of that.[/quote]
