Adding it all up — both paid work and unpaid housework, including childcare — the average man’s work week was three hours longer than his partner’s before birth, but after parenthood he worked 8.5 hours less than his partner.
This is particularly interesting, given that this is a socio-economic cohort — wealthy and educated — that generally says equality of household labour is important in a relationship.
