Brilliant, as usual.

Full disclosure, I'm more than a little inebriated.

"Unpaid labor?" WTF? As a man who has been single my entire life I have always performed ALL of my domestic chores with no remuneration whatsoever. So, obviously, it peeves me more than just a little that a housewife who BY LAW is entitled to at least half of her husband's assets can claim that she is UNPAID because she performs domestic chores.

Marriage is a partnership, right? If a man makes $100,000 a year as a truck driver working up to sixty hours a week then his wife gets $50,000 of that doing shit that she WOULD BE DOING ANYWAY IF SHE WASN'T MARRIED! Her husband is almost never home so the majority of the messes she's cleaning up are her own. Furthermore, I can just about GUARANTEE you that the husband is still the one mowing the lawn, maintaining the machines, taking out the garbage, etc. Who is paying HIM for that?

I can barely believe that, as much as I've immersed myself in men's rights issues over the past decade or so, I've never seen anyone bring up the 'marriage as a legal partnership' issue when discussing things like the pay gap. If a man makes $200,000 a year and his wife stays home and plays with the kids, shops, watched soap operas, and supervises the domestic servants then they BOTH MAKE $100,000 A YEAR! What could possibly be a clearer refutation of the 'unpaid labor' argument?
