Couples that used to share housework are 50% more likely to get divorced than those who keep the traditional division of the "labor". 

This conclusion is based according to the new studies. It seems that problems is arising from the overlapping of responsibilities within the home.

But not everyone was convinced with these studies as for example the professor of sociology at the University of Canterbury believes that the survey-study results are due to bias of a specific population. People who took part in the survey were mostly middle-class professionals, a category in which the divorce rate is very high. It seems these people are affected more easily when something does not seem correct .

Regardless of which of the two interpretations is correct, the conclusion is:

• More you organise your relationship with rules and obligations, it comes predictable, and so instead of living in harmony, there is a conflict of interests.
