[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm willing to bet the more money a man makes, the less housework gets done by women as well. Your household income reaches a certain threshold and things get outsourced, even if the woman doesn't work. [/quote]

I think that this is a great point. [/quote]

Of course.  My wife is a SAHM, and as our HHI has increased, so has the frequency of our cleaning service, and hence the housework we have to do.  [b]Let's face it, no one likes to scrub bathrooms, deep-clean kitchens, dust, etc. [/b] As the household income increases, it's natural to outsource the things you really hate to do.[/quote]

Not true. I actually like to do these things. I find them to be peaceful and immediately gratifying tasks. And since I'm the owner and I want to keep my nice things looking nice and clean, I take more care when cleaning them. I can't tell you how many times my cleaning service did a shoddy job or broke something. "If you want something done right..."[/quote]
