Ever wondered why, despite all our advances towards gender equality, domestic duties still tend to be heavily skewed towards women? Get ready to unpack this hot-button issue alongside your hosts, Calley Hewes and Valerie King-Mallar. We talk about the gender imbalance in domestic tasks, from unpaid chores to cognitive responsibilities, and why women often find themselves as the primary homemakers, particularly in heteronormative relationships.

Join us as we tackle this disparity head-on. We'll give you the lowdown on how to have those uncomfortable but crucial conversations with your partner, ensuring a fair division of responsibilities. We'll also present creative strategies for equalizing the domestic workload, like the idea of gamifying tasks and the 'effort list' concept.
