I think I've seen - but will need to find data to validate - that on average "full time" for men is more hours than "full time" for women. I think ~10% more if I remember right. I wonder if that is addressed in the studies you've read?
I can believe that, though also interesting in itself. The way the data read it would have taken that into account. One survey was asking how many hours spent on different activities and summarised work/kids/housework etc. The other was focused on leisure time left over after all else is done. So both looked at actual hours, not an assumption about what 'full-time' meant.
I love the fire circle idea. Actually, I've been thinking of writing a post entitled "F*@k Patriarchy" because it's been such a mind f'ker. Becoming a mum had made this starkly obvious.
I bloody love that fuck you fire circle idea!
