Couples Sharing Domestic Work and More
A new poll released today by Maru/Blue Public Opinion shows that even in a pandemic when couples are forced to live under the same roof for longer periods of time due to lock-downs or having to work from home, the perception of who is shouldering the household work is far from harmonious: a majority of men (58%) think there is a shared domestic workload (like cooking, cleaning, and laundry) compared to a minority (42%) of their female counterparts who disagree—a striking gap of -16 points.
