@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch American Time Use Survey (with 2017 as an example) shows that women on average are not spending enough more time with their kids, doing chores, or anything else to justify women's lack of time working.
On average, men just work more in America (considering both paid and unpaid).
Women care for and help household members 2.08 more hours per day than men in the most extreme case presented by Table 8A, but men work 6.43 hours more per day than women.
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch Similarly, comparing the men from Table 8B to the women from Table 8C (where the youngest child is under 6), women do household activities for 1.91 more hours per day than men in the most extreme case presented by Table 8A, but, again, men work 6.43 hours more per day than women.
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch Let's do the math: Men: Women:
Household activities: 1.26 3.17
Caring for household: 1.42 3.36
Work-related activities: 6.57 0.00
==========
Total: 9.25 6.53
Who is doing more?
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch By comparing the men from Table 8B to the women from Table 8C (using the youngest child under 6 column), we see the situation where women are unemployed and spending the most time caring not only for the children but the whole family.
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch Maybe women are forced to stay home with their kids and that causes the gap. If true, women with no kids should be working the same amount as men in the workforce as there is no reason not to since there is no reason to be on call and no extra household or child care duties.
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch Whether you consider all currently childless folks (Table 8A) or just the ones working (Table 8B), women spend less time on paid labor and related activities and women spend less time working considering both unpaid domestic labor and paid labor added together. The pattern holds.
@PadmaLakshmi@NewYorker@BLS_gov@pewresearch In light of the data (outlined hereinabove), it would seem that he would be taking on more responsibility than she would (on average), @PadmaLakshmi, which makes this comic hilariously false when dealing with the general or typical case (

@BrassVon @FoucaultFanatic @Oneiorosgrip @threadreaderapp @PhilMitchell83 @SocialSecurity The Social Security Administration doesn't generally consider "household tasks" and "self-care" to be substantial gainful activity (even where one is getting in-kind payment like living rent-free).

@Oneiorosgrip @FoucaultFanatic @PhilMitchell83 Should someone tell her the (formerly feminist-approved) scientific solution to the incel problem?
One that would make a certain turd-flinging monkey grin.
@Oneiorosgrip @FoucaultFanatic @PhilMitchell83 The solution to the fertility crisis, @FoucaultFanatic, is to decrease female education which raises fertility as “[a] negative correlation is most clearly seen between different levels of female education and the total fertility rate …in a population”().weforum.org/stories/2015/1…
@Oneiorosgrip @FoucaultFanatic @PhilMitchell83 Likewise, “[w]omen’s wage employment is negatively correlated with total fertility rates” ().
It’s simple, @FoucaultFanatic: decrease women’s employment outside of the agricultural sector and thereby increase the total fertility of a population.pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC82…

The median best way for women to maximize the income available to her is to marry a man.

@AnEriksenWife Broadly speaking, strategy is the overall game plan and tactics are the methods employed to achieve the overall strategy. Generals make strategies; captains, lieutenants, and the like employ tactics. There is a slight overlap between the terms and who uses them.
@AnEriksenWife Both strategies and tactics are goal-oriented planning; the difference (to the degree there’s one) is that strategy is more abstract and tactics are more concrete and grounded. For example, Sun Tzu’s Art of War (孫子兵法) is a book of (general) strategies, not (specific) tactics.
@AnEriksenWife Chess is considered a strategy game because you are moving big pieces (or units) across a battlefield and the particular tactics employed by the units are not supposed to matter or change the outcome (which is a vast over simplification of real battles).
