Full time is not equal full time. On average men who work full time works more hours per week than women who works full time.<br /><br />If one look at the sum of paid work and housework one will find that it is close to parity in the US (http://www.slate.com/id/2164268/pagenum/all/#p2) while in Scandinacia where I live men work (paid work + housework) 1 hour more per day than women (I cite the source here: http://www.feministcritics.org/blog/2011/02/27/author-reassesses-%e2%80%98the-feminine-mystique%e2%80%99-noh/#comment-153759 )Tamennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3164556861454970487.post-63522117480279766152009-10-17T13:14:33.158-04:002009-10-17T13:14:33.158-04:00Very true!
