Strindberg's Refutation of the "Unpaid Work" Claim Mens-Advocate March 23, 2016 14 upvotes /r/MensRights The claim that wives perform massive amounts of "unpaid work" appears frequently, most recently in a New York Times article sympathetic to the claim, and in a thread here challenging the claim. Over a century ago, the playwright August Strindberg wrote a refutation of the "unpaid work" claim: http://www.readbookonline.net/readOnLine/11657/ He also wrote other material critical of marriage from the male point of view: http://www.readbookonline.net/readOnLine/11658/ http://www.readbookonline.net/title/38537/ http://www.readbookonline.net/stories/Strindberg/430/ For his troubles, he has been lambasted as a misogynist ever since - and the "unpaid work" claim persists, a century later!
