作者研究了 22 个国家婚前同居对家庭劳动分工的影响。首先，在所有国家中，女性比男性承担更多的日常家务劳动。其次，婚前同居的夫妻分工更加平等。第三，全国同居率对夫妻具有均等效应，无论他们自己的同居经历如何。然而，只有在总体性别平等水平较高的国家才能观察到同居率的影响。作者得出的结论是，同居现象日益增多的趋势可能是更加平等地分担家务的更广泛社会趋势的一部分。
The authors examine the effect of premarital cohabitation on the division of household labor in 22 countries. First, women do more routine housework than men in all countries. Second, married couples that cohabited before marriage have a more equal division of housework. Third, national cohabitation rates have equalizing effects on couples regardless of their own cohabitation experience. However, the influence of cohabitation rates is only observed in countries with higher levels of overall gender equality. The authors conclude that the trend toward increasing cohabitation may be part of a broader social trend toward a more egalitarian division of housework.
