This was so fascinating to read! So much for heterosexual couples to learn about how these gay dads parent--the freedom of not having certain roles projected onto them! That graph made me grimace, though. I was the wife who was the sole income earner in my marriage and that did NOT mean my husband did more of the childcare and household labor. We are now divorced, but only after three decades. I am pretty sure the gay couples you profile here wouldn't have put up with that imbalance for so long. That gender divide goes DEEP.
