It really irritates me when men doing their share is 'helping out', just like taking care of your own child so your spouse can have five minutes peaces is not 'babysitting' or doing anyone any favours your doing your flipping share...

That news article wont be 'news' to any of the women I know!

How does one go about getting paid to write the utterly obvious?

Seriously.

Especially patronising bullshit like 'helping out' and 'mother does not work' as if taking care of children happens by itself' and father 'contributes'.

It's doing his fair fucking share in life.

If there's one thing I'll bring up my daughters and son to believe, it's that people who expect others to do their fair share in life just because they live with or are married to them are worthless nobos best left on the kerb for someone else to waste their time on.

incredible that mainstream media still refers to men not being parasites as 'helping out'

I'm sure I have read versions of this article for about ten years now.

I'm not even going to read this one.
