"Men apparently enjoy being with their parents, while women find time with their mom and dad to be slightly less pleasant than doing laundry. Alan Krueger - a Princeton economist working with four psychologists on the time-use research team - figures that there is a simple explanation for the difference. For a woman, time with her parents often resembles work, whether it's helping them pay bills or plan a family gathering. "For men, it tends to be sitting on the sofa and watching football with their dad," said Krueger, who, when not crunching data, happens to enjoy watching the New York Giants with his father. This intriguing - if unsettling - finding is part of a larger story: there appears to be a growing happiness gap between men and women."
Men do less and women do more. Hopefully, in time, that will balance out for the masses.
I wouldn't necessarily call this an anti-feminist thread.
