for people who weren't here that day to see that discussion

It's funny that "household activities" are not labeled "work". Don't tell your wife about that.

That's... quite an old fashioned assumption you have there.

To suggest that household work is not work is old fashioned to say the least. Studies have shown that not "working" mothers actually work 80h+ weeks doing "household activities" like child rearing, cleaning, cooking, washing dishes etc.

Men even when they stay at home do only 60h of it as far as I remember the numbers.
