The article defined man keeping as the woman as in charge of the couple’s social life. In yester year with sole bread winner couples, I believe the woman was also in charge of social life. The article did not define emotional labor. I have seen this term several times. I still don’t know what it means besides women feel they got the short end of the stick. That is I don’t think the term clarify or help illustrate the issues affecting real couples. I wish they would define it in more concrete terms. Like can not afford rent in a good school district. Can’t take time off to care for sick child. Or man doesn’t do his share of domestic chores.
