Even little kids have a wage gap
Boys, on average, spend two fewer hours doing household chores per week than girls do (they play two hours more).
If they live in households where children are compensated for doing chores, boys make and save more money. Â
A 2009 study conducted by University of Michigan economists found a two-hour gender disparity in responsibilities per week in a study of 3,000 kids.
75 percent of girls had chores, while just 65 percent of boys do
This disparity in chores and free time continues into adulthood all over the world.  According to the Organisation of Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), men âreport spending more time in activities counted as leisure than women. Gender differences in leisure time are wide across OECD countries.â
Year after year, studies repeatedly confirm these patterns.
The problems women face with unequal pay and housework duties actually start in childhood.
The fact that boysâ chores appear to be more profitable makes the childhood chore gap even more disturbing. Turns out, parents tend to value the work that boys do more.Â
Gender stereotypes dictate these patterns.Â
men who grow up with sisters do less housework than their spouses and are also significantly more socially conservative.
