[quote=Anonymous]Two thoughts: 1. It would be very interesting to compare how a DW/DH pairing each rated work done in their household. I'd bet each person thinks s/he is doing more than half the work. 2. I think a more effective measurement is to assess how much no-responsibility leisure time each person has. How much time is each person sitting around reading a magazine? It's easy to tally up all the things you yourself do around the house, and put them on your side of the ledger. But I'd bet everyone's spouse takes on a lot of jobs we all don't appreciate. As just one example in my house, I spend an hour or two each week searching online for coupons and ordering household supplies for delivery by Amazon. I'd bet my spouse would forget to include that time on any accounting of what we each do. I'm sure it goes both ways too, and I'd forget things my spouse does.[/quote]
