Not sure about that. I would say it became more common for men to help with the housework from the 70's onward, and we had 40 hour weeks way before that. Do you think that the men who worked for Ford in the 1920s and 1930s, started helping with the housework after they implemented 40 hour work week? No, it think it's more likely that women had to prove themselves capable money earners first.
- learc83 11y agoNo, I'm not saying that the 40 hour work week was sufficient to bring out that change, just necessary. I'm just pointing out that a confluence of many things led to the result of women working/not dong all the housework, not just 1.
