Quotes About Dual-career families

A survey of 348 male managers at twenty Fortune 500 companies found that fathers from dual-career families put in an average of two fewer hours per week – or about 4 percent less – than men whose wives were at home. That was the only difference between the two groups of men. But the fathers with working wives, who presumably had a few more domestic responsibilities, earned almost 20 percent less.

Parafraseando a Ralph E. Gomory en el prólogo de su libro Being Together, Working Apart: Dual-Career Families and the Work-Life Balance, pasamos de una unidad familiar en la que uno traía el pan y el otro cuidaba de la casa a otra en la que dos traen el pan y nadie cuida de la casa.
