Division of labor

Apparently, getting married changes everything ... chore-wise, anyway.

So, men get married, they do less housework, women get married, they do more.

Is this a matter of marriage traditionalizing roles? Or is it that women take more pride and responsibility in a household? ('This is my family's home', as opposed to 'this is where my boyfriend and I live')?

Did you catch the interesting side note of how men who make more money do fewer chores?

Hmmmm.
