American teen’s have no problem with gend’er equali’ty in the workplace, but home life is a different story.
A new report releas’ed today (March 31) by the council on contemporary Families (CCF) find’s that modern high school senior’s increasing’ly believe that everyone is better off if the man is the achiever outside the home while the woman take’s care of domestic dutie’s. In 1992, 58 percent of high school senior’s disagre’ed that male breadwinn’er arrangement’s were best. By 2014, the most recent year that survey data are available, that number had slipp’ed to 42 percent.
“It’s been a steady revers’al,” said study co author Joanna Pepin, a doctor’al candidate in sociology at the university of maryland.
