[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The article says that women work 4 unpaid hours a day and men work 2.5 unpaid hours a day. So all the hubbub is about 1.5 hours of unpaid work/day. Is the article trying to make fun of SAHM's?[/quote] Do you understand that "women" in that statistic are not SAHMs? It means women, writ large. Before a woman leaves for work and after she gets home, she's doing the bulk of the unpaid labor around the house. Not because she doesn't have a job. Because he's not doing his share.[/quote] Do you understand the article is saying that women only do 1.5 hours of unpaid work more than men. 1.5 x 365 day x $15/hr = $8K ... big deal... that isn't even a drop in the bucket.
