More housework, less sex for married men: study
A man lights a gas stove on January 6, 2009. Husbands who spend more time doing traditionally female chores -- such as cooking, cleaning, and shopping -- reported having less sex than those who do more masculine tasks, according to a study in the American Sociological Review.

AFP - The road to hell is paved with good intentions, as they say: the more housework married men do, the less sex they have, according to a new study published Wednesday.

Husbands who spend more time doing traditionally female chores -- such as cooking, cleaning, and shopping -- reported having less sex than those who do more masculine tasks, said the study in the American Sociological Review.

"Our findings suggest the importance of socialized gender roles for sexual frequency in heterosexual marriage," said lead author Sabino Kornrich, of the Center for Advanced Studies at the Juan March Institute in Madrid.

"Couples in which men participate more in housework typically done by women report having sex less frequently. Similarly, couples in which men participate more in traditionally masculine tasks -- such as yard work, paying bills, and auto maintenance -- report higher sexual frequency."

His study, "Egalitarianism, Housework, and Sexual Frequency in Marriage," looks at straight married couples in the United States, and was based on data from the National Survey of Families and Households.

The study was co-authored by University of Washington sociologist Julie Brines and doctoral candidate Katrina Leupp.

Men in the study reported having had sex an average of 5.2 times in the month prior to the survey, while women reported 5.6.

But both men and women in couples with more traditional household labor divisions said they had more sex.

Lmao... I don't know... I think a guy who does dishes and laundry is HOT!  Where is this study from? Provincetown, Mass.?  hahahahaha You crack me up Hollywood... now get back to your cooking!!!

making pasta primavera now ;)~ yum

Does the study refer to sex "at home" ?  .... Lol

HAHAHA-ya right- no-wonder he has no sex- he is TIRED- isnt that what women say after a day in the kitchen? The system has made a buch of sissies out there and this is what we reap. Guys who want to VACCUM---That SUCKS- ---(SIDE JOKE) I think if a man wants to bring home the bacon thats fine if the lady of the house wants to work thats fine also then split the work. If you have kids at home i think its better to have a mom at home. Kids need that social nourishment- When dad comes home his lady loves him for that -I believe that if you want your man to come home make him want to come home and the same goes the otther way- Surveys do more than harm families- they tear them apart- Having a dad with DISHPAN hands isnt what you bring your friends home to see. To me that is crazy and dont Please dont get me wrong here ladies of 12160 put the guns away- I dont mean any disrespect. But having a mom at home and a dad working shows stability in a marriage and when mom goes to work then the time is right-Kids notice these things. I do think that sharing is a great thing to show chidlren also as it reinforces who they are. Turn it around and we end up with wimps and all sorts of other things that will get me into trouble here - hahaha- Thanks for understanding my predicament0- --- WE raised 4 girls- so i do understand Estrogen Moments every 5 minutes- This why i have a BIG SHOP- lol

It is always interesting to find certain differences:

Men in the study reported having had sex an average of 5.2 times in the month prior to the survey, while women reported 5.6.

How do researchers interpret the difference>?

all depends on who u ask i guess-Are u sure it wasnt a lab rat test-Cause the males are always at the wheel-

5.6 - 5.2 = 0.4, lesbian?

The Postman always rings twice?

Postmen are suspicious. I should have known.

Good for you ED!!!

GOD promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in ALL corners of the Earth------------Then HE made the World round--- and laughed---- ------------WHY? IASK WHY? HAHAHAHAHAHA----- now what was that question again? ahhh what survey? haha
