Higher risk of divorce when men do housework, Norwegian study finds | News.com.au

COUPLES who share housework duties run a higher risk of divorce than couples where the woman does most of the chores, a Norwegian study sure to get tongues wagging has shown.


man doing housework generally means that the woman is working outside the home, probably both spouses working outside the home. with 2 incomes it is easier for either to entertain the idea of divorce since their livelihood is not dependent on the other.

I see another reason for this as being the old original doctrine that whoever does the work is the real boss.

When the Man / husband does the housework then the husband becomes the boss of the house.

This is really true everywhere, as like in a business or Company the workers really run the place and the owners are the real subordinates.

Most people just do not know or fail to understand the principle.

Jesus said this in the Gospel = "And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:" KJV, Matthew 20:27

Of course this does not mean that the husband sees himself as the "chief" or the boss and the wife might not view the husband as usurping her traditional authority, but the reality happens whether anyone knows it or not.

The worker is not the boss of the other person or the other spouse - as doing the house work simply makes them the boss of the house and in the house.

That goes on my top 10 dumbest things I ever heard of list.

No doubt!

study was co-authored by a man.

nah, in my case it was the more neighbors a man does, the higher the divorce rate.

:yikes: Sounds like you made the right decision to divorce his sorry azz!

....I think our household works the opposite. The more housework my husband does, the more time is freed up for other more mutually rewarding activities....

:buddies: Exactly. The smart men realize this! Happy wife = happy life and more booty too!

My take on this is, men and women have a VERY different opinion of what constitutes "clean" or "neat" or "the right way" to do something. Cups in the cupboard, up or down. Knives in the holder, face up, face down. Toilet paper, over or under. Curtains or blinds. Or both.

I've read now several articles saying that women have more acute senses. Men see purple, women see mauve. Men smell food, women smell every single spice. Men see a clean shirt - women see grease stains, fading colors and so forth. So when you are pulling on your favorite polo shirt, all she can see is the hole, the bleach stain, the grease stain. Whereas you can barely tell.

It just stands to reason if you have two people doing a job and one has a much higher standard of what is acceptable, you're going to have disagreements. A lot. I can easily see if one does it all the time, there's no fight.

I find this study odd. I've heard it said the biggest fights in marriage are almost always over money.

My husband does not do the laundry. If he did, we'd have to pull our clothes out of the dryer each morning....a dryer stuffed with the equivalent of about 5 loads of laundry. I don't like that so I just do it myself. And I make sure it gets done before he ever even has the opportunity to get to it.

You know, I really don't understand this whole feuding over chores....

....I do it if it needs to be done. :shrug:

If my wife decides that she doesn't like the way I do it, I proceed to walk away and leave it to her to do. :yahoo:

:lol: people actually study this stuff :lmao:

It is a serious psychological power play for position.

The person which does the work is the one in control.

Yes people do study such things = APS - It’s All About Control.
