Maybe this explains why women on the one hand want equality in the home, and then on the other resist shared parenting like their life depended on it.

Mothers are weird. If you help them, it kills their self-esteem, but if you don't it also kills their self-esteem, because they feel like they're being taken advantage of. In reality, they don't want help. They just want to act like they want help, so that when you do help, they can start yelling and saying you're doing it wrong, then take over the job, which only makes the male get angry and/or sad. It's just another form of manipulative control.
