    Most disapprove of 'wives stay home' idea, but few men do chores

    (Kyodo) _ A majority of Japanese disagreed in a recent government survey with the traditional notion that wives should stay at home for the first time since the poll started in 1979.

    The survey on gender equality also showed a record 40 percent of Japanese believe women should continue to work after having children.

     

    But while female participation in the Japanese workforce is growing, the reality is that men have not been taking up a bigger share of housework and the burden of household chores still falls on the wives, according to the Cabinet Office poll released Saturday.
