[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can any couple not get all household chores done (cleaning, dishes, laundry) in one hour every day after the kids are in bed? I don’t think we have low standards but DH and I get everything done in one hour and are ready for the next day. We get everything else done on weekends with one of us taking the kids and the other doing shopping and errands. I make three dinners and the kids lunch food on Sunday and still have time to spend time as a family. I don’t see why it’s so hard either. [/quote] I’m the genex who posted up thread but I think it is bc many, many people do not have this egalitarian arrangement with their spouse. Take the historical norm of women doing the housework. Couple it with them working but retaining their deficit mindset and likely actual deficit in earnings, and women will continue to do more than men. Outsourcing is a better option than fighting, resenting, or nagging. [/quote]
