Only Some Men Think They Do Most of the Household Chores

35% of men think they do most of the chores around the house.  So, hey . . . at least they admit it.  72% of women said THEY actually handle most of the chores.

 

 

Also, the types of chores men and women do aren’t exactly equal.  Three out of five people said they have specific chores they’re responsible for.  Women do most of the cooking, dusting, and vacuuming.  Men are more likely to mow the lawn, deal with clogged drains, and change light bulbs.

 

 

There are some chores we share though.  Things men and women are just as likely to do include:  Feeding the pets, or walking them . . . deep-cleaning the shower . . . and steam-cleaning the carpets.
