1
in Britain that men these days do believe
more housework than they did in previous generations. But is this really so A
recent survey has made some interesting discoveries.

, when men do help out, they enjoy cooking and shop apparent
ping but most are

to doing the washing. A quarter of men willing
think that women are better suited to looking after the home than men and 19%
admit to

no contribution to housework. The average man says make
that he does a

of the housework, while the average woman three
says she does three-quarters of it, so someone isn"t telling the truth! It was im-
possible to find any men who shared housework equally with their partners. Per-
haps it is not so surprising, therefore, that there are some politicians who want
a new law forcing men to do their share.
