Op-Ed: As couples figure out a 'new normal' in the COVID era, aim for a less sexist division of labor (via latimesopinion)

In interviewing more than a hundred people about their relationships — a diverse sample of men and women in heterosexual and same-sex relationships — we asked: “How did you decide who does what in your relationship?”

We started to call this the “wing it” approach. Even when the outcome varied from 1950s gender roles, it seemed to be a fluke. As one man we interviewed put it: “I’m the toothbrush guy with our daughter. I have no idea why that happened. But 90% of the time, I’m the guy.” That confusion entrenches the gender gap. It tends to create a vacuum of domestic responsibility, in which someone has to jump in to make sure the insurance bill gets paid or the auto registration gets renewed to keep the car street legal. The more uncertain roles become, the more the disparity grows. That’s why, when schools and daycares closed because of COVID, it was largely women who quit their jobs to deal with the chaos.
