It appears that during the average working week women clock in at least 20 per cent more hours than men. A major study claims that because of housework and childcare, career women are working much longer hours than men, even though they may not be spending as much time in the office.
Researchers at Cambridge University have found women who work outside the home still do the bulk of the domestic chores, including picking the kids up from school, helping with homework, cleaning and cooking. A woman's work is never done has never seemed truer.
Unfair, right? So even though men tend to spend more hours at the office, often because they are in management positions and earn higher salaries, it's us women who are actually on-the-go for longer.
So the guys at girls at Vita Liberata tanning have created a Liberation Day competition, that we think sounds just lovely. Imagine if you had a full 24 hours to spend selfishly. No holds barred. Purely and simply, what would a woman do if they had 24 hours entirely to themselves, with no responsibilities, no financial issues, no worries at all?
The top responses from their survey were:
78% were so knackered all they wanted was a day to rest
Shopping!
Cocktails
Spend a day ‘out’ are New York, London or Paris
Go to Nashville and visit the home of Elvis Presley
Watch Barcelona football team - at their home ground
98% chose not to include their other half in their day off
Do makeup on a Hollywood film set
5% wanted an active day – bungee jumping, skiing, white water rafting, being the most popular
Drive the 5 fastest cars in the world
But we think you can do better. Cocktails? Elvis? Nah. So enter here: www.liberationdayiscoming.com to take part and possibly win your very own 24 hours of unbridled fun.
