Statistics About Chores

Doing chores is a dull, repetitive experience for most people. That’s why folks don’t like to do them. Courtney Ronan writes that according to an MSNBC survey, respondents were asked if the chores in their households were performed by just one person or if they were shared.

The results were telling: 74 percent of men said the chores were shared; 51 percent of women said chores were shared. Twenty-six percent of men said one person did the housework; 49 percent of the women said the same.
