Big news, ladies! Turns out your husbands haven't been slackers all along.
TIME's cover story this week (available here for subscribers) examines the "Chore Wars" that take place in most modern marriages, where women have long felt the burden of being overworked.
Ever since women entered the workforce en masse in the 1970s, they've felt the pressures of paid work on top of their pressures of unpaid work such as chores around the house and childcare.
Their husbands, by contrast, seemed to move at a glacial pace to increase their fair share. This pressure on working women has caused, NewsFeed imagines, many a marital spat.
