Make Me A Sammich!

Toil and trouble:

Girls worldwide spend an estimated 160 million more hours per day than boys on household chores, a UNICEF report issued Friday said.

Released in advance of the United Nations' International Day of the Girl, Oct. 11, it said girls age 5 to 14 spend 40 percent more time than boys engaged in unpaid activities including gathering firewood, collecting water, caring for family members and other tasks.


Horses for courses. So why is the United Nations, that great black hole of money, "studying" this most obvious of facts?

"The overburden of unpaid household work begins in early childhood and intensifies as girls reach adolescence," said UNICEF's Anju Malhotra. "As a result, girls sacrifice important opportunities to learn, grow, and just enjoy their childhood. This unequal distribution of labor among children also perpetuates gender stereotypes and the double-burden on women and girls across generations."


Oh, of course. They want to Change The World. But here's the really important question: How many boys self-identify as girls and still do no housework? What about girls who self-identify as celery but still do housework? What's the relative number of asexual cis-vegetables performing housework compared to girls? Hrmmmm? Didn't think about THAT did you, U.N.? Clearly gender-biased, the lot of you. Sic 'em, SJWs!
