Important context: the studies were done in China and Korea.
The article references two previous studies that were presumably done in America, but they were both done in 2020 during the height of the pandemic. Seems like a big limitation of the research.
The article then says 9 out of 10 women prefer remote work and that remote work has been found to increase diversity.
This is a study of work from home couples, and this part is all you need to understand the story:
> The study concluded that when men had flexible work schedules and worked from home at least some of the time, wives who also worked from home found themselves handling significantly more household chores and tasks than before. Additionally, wives were more likely to report feeling guilty about not working on household chores or spending time with their families than their husbands.
