Who’s best at dodging housework?

BRUSSELS – Don’t turn to French men if you want help with housework.

They spend a minute more a day than Germans on washing up, laundry, and other chores around the house, but are the worst at sharing domestic work with women, according to a Eurostat survey of nine of the European Union’s 25 member states and Norway. French men spend about half the time that women do on domestic tasks, clocking in an average of one hour 53 minutes a day – nearly half an hour less than the typical male in Sweden or Slovenia.Swedish men are the most likely to help around the house, but even they only use up two thirds of the time spent by Swedish women on such chores.Still, women manage to sneak in some extra rest at night, using up a little more time sleeping than men in all 10 countries.- Nampa-ReutersFrench men spend about half the time that women do on domestic tasks, clocking in an average of one hour 53 minutes a day – nearly half an hour less than the typical male in Sweden or Slovenia.Swedish men are the most likely to help around the house, but even they only use up two thirds of the time spent by Swedish women on such chores.Still, women manage to sneak in some extra rest at night, using up a little more time sleeping than men in all 10 countries.- Nampa-Reuters
