This study will use American Time Use Survey (ATUS) data to compare time spent on housework for men and women in same-sex and opposite-sex couples. Specifically, it will compare these groups with regard to (1) the relationship between a partner's share of a couple's earnings and time spent doing housework, and (2) overall time spent on housework, and overall time spent on specific household tasks, especially “female-typed” tasks. This study’s sample is much larger than those of previous studies on this topic.  The sample is also somewhat more racially/ethnically and economically diverse than those of past studies and includes both female same-sex couples and male same-sex couples (past studies have mostly focused on female same-sex couples).
