Norwegian Study: Marriages are stronger with traditional arrangements.
Devin Foley | March 9, 2016
A while back, Medical Daily reported on a Norwegian study of couples to see “how married and cohabiting men and women divided housework and childcare throughout various life stages.” It might make a few heads explode.
“Couples may be better off living in a ‘traditional’ household where women do all the housework if they want to stay together, according to a report from the Oslo and Akershus University College of Applied Science.”
The reason why the study came to that conclusion is up for debate, though.
“Researchers did not find an association between a traditional share of housework (women do most of the work) and a lower risk of divorce — but they did report untraditional couples had a greater risk for divorce. Men who did as much or more of the housework were more likely to get divorced than couples where the woman did most of the housework over a period of four years.

Many or most men have no idea how life actually gets lived.
Make America 1940 again.
Most women are clueless
How so, 5:00pm? They may not know how life gets lived, but when it comes time for death to die for our country, men are, shall we say, enthusiastically overrepresented?
But there was no cause-and-effect determined in the study, so this is not really news. Also what’s happening in the comments here, a men v. women showdown?
