“Women still do more housework and child care than men — it takes 27 percent of mothers’ time and 18 percent of fathers’. Women in turn spend 11 percent of their time on leisure while men spend 23 percent.” [Cluttered Fridge Doors, Cluttered Lives · Lisa Belkin · NYTimes.com · May 24, 2010]

    I must admit, that I am way lucky, and the scales tip the opposite in my house. My hubbie spends more time on household chores.

    How nice for you, Dawn! I wish I could say the same. ;) You must tell me how you get the scale to tip away from you! =)
