    Thanks for the reply, I’m still not sure if I would equate overproportional volunteering for a lesser profitable task equates to work “chores”.

    I would understand if author etc deduced that I meant men where more hesitant to do lesser tasks when woman are around. But I think that speaks more to the power balance issue that specifically work chores.

    To me, the article shoe horns a scientific study to match a list of tips that are pretty unrelated. There’s space for both discussions but seems to be a strange choice of evidence for the latter.
