[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe men do a ton, an equal share let’s say, but are simply less vocal about their contributions and, especially, their complaints. Women, biologically, are programmed to be more emotional. They’re more chatty. They initiate 70% of divorces and 90% if they’re college educated. They’re more flighty, and variant in temperament, and neurotic in general as has been reported by top scientists. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3149680/

So a woman might complain a lot about feeling the emotional burden of parenthood, and a career, but perhaps that’s just her subjective, emotion-based, rather than a fact-based, objective assessment of her situation, we’re outside observers able to quantify her particular case.

Study after study shows that women spend more time on childcare and housework than men, even in marriages where both partners work and earn about the same amount. And men spend more time on paid work AND on leisure activities. It's literally study after study, I've never seen a study on allocation of labor in marriages that found the opposite. This is one from just last week:
