Source: Sweet and Bumpass (NFSH); new household means with new dataset 0212
Group: respondents with employed non-academic partners, employed academic partners, and academic partners employed outside of the academy.

Caption: Women with employed partners (academic and non-academic) do significantly more household labor than men. “Outsourced” refers to paid labor.
Note: Data are limited to faculty respondents with working partners. We define working partners as those with employed non-academic partners, those with academic partners employed in the academy, and those with academic partners employed outside of the academy. Valid N's are reported for each task from left to right (i.e., cooking/grocery shopping, laundry, house-cleaning, household repairs, yard care, car care, finances). For women, the N's are 2571, 2569, 2557, 2499, 2291, 2483, and 2572. For men, the N's are 3292, 3287, 3244, 3191, 2936, 3181, 3307. All gender differences are statistically significant except that in finances.
