[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how common it is for women to, in reality, take on far more of the burden of running a family and how much of it is selective perception, reinforced by like minded women.

For every woman who slaves away at the dishes while her husband watches TV, seems like there is probably a husband slaving away at a high stress job while his wife "watches the kids" while drinking wine in the afternoon with other moms. [/quote]

This "like minded woman" has a full time career outside of the home. So, no.[/quote]

Not to completely open up a can of worms, but SAHM and WOHM have completely different values systems, as evidenced by their decisions. I work for home, always have. My DW felt my kids should be driven to school all the way through HS. She would come home after taking kids to school and then talk on the phone for an hour with her girlfriends. Never felt the need to get anything done, as in "oh, I forgot I will do it tomorrow". After watching this for about ten years, and epic battles, I made her go back to work. I was done funding the SuperMOM lifestyle. Some of these SOHMs get completely caught up in the wrong shit - they are wrecked if they are not the school moms or can't go on the field trips. And yet they have no problem spending money. So, I have alot of respect for how hard it is for WOHM, I find SAHM in the lower upper class have a racket. Mine complained that she didn't have help with a driver for the kids. After awhile it was like get your head out of your ass.[/quote]
