What's frustrating about the way the media has reported this is that the difference in frequency was statistically insignificant at fewer than one less time per month, but the media had completely ignored the fact that the couples where men do more housework reported being happier overall.
Apparently, half a BJ extra per month is more important than being happy to the men who run the media. Yay for priorities.
