Lots and lots and lots of reading over the years.

"Lots and lots of reading", yes that scholarly peer reviewed journal. I know it well.

The 60 hours of work a week for homemakers comes from a book called "More work for mother." It is a figure that has been stable for 300 years. I don't recall where specifically I got some of the other figures. I was trying to sort my life out, not prepare for debate on an internet forum I had not yet heard of and which did not exist when I was doing a lot of this reading in my 20s.

I don't think the statistics you posted about men working an extra 10 mins a day is accurate. It actually sounds quite absurd.

You've posted plenty of comments that break the HN guidelines. If you keep doing this will ban you. Especially, please cut the ideological flamebait and—as in this case—nasty snark.
