My mum looked after the kids and worked albeit less hours than my dad but you're assuming that males when they finish work just sit on their arses and women care for the kids AND work 24/7. My father finishes work still to this day at his old age, comes home, takes the dogs out, fixes broken things, manually labours around the house fixing things and developing the bathroom or kitchen etc etc. He doesn't get paid for any of this. Saints live in flames; wise men, next to them. |

It's work, you know. And the male is 50% responsible for creating it. Men are perfectly capable of caring for children, and many men do these days. Your dad is pulling his weight then in the way the old arrangement intended him to. The difference is that men are not expected to leave work to come home and fix a dripping faucet. It waits until after work. You can't do that with a baby. It needs to be tended to asap. So, the man stays at work while the woman has to leave and take care of the kid. Hence the discrepancy in hours spent at work and the pay gap. ![]() |
