Dads who do housework have more ambitious daughters - Technology & Science - CBC News: Maybe you've told your daughter she can grow up to be an engineer or CEO if she wants to, but she may not really believe it if her dad doesn't cook or clean, a new study suggests.
A group of psychologists at the University of British Columbia found that when a father performs a greater share of traditionally female household chores such as cooking, cleaning and childcare, his school-aged daughter�is less likely to say she wants to pursue a stereotypical female career such as nursing, teaching or staying at home with the kids, and more likely to aspire to more gender-neutral (and often higher-paying) careers, such as becoming a doctor or lawyer.
