“I see working mothers doing everything, and I see husbands staring and saying ‘huh, I have nothing to do’! […] That’s the theme. And the women are tired,” attorney Dennis R Vetrano Jr. said in a video on TikTok, which has been viewed more than 7.7 million times in a matter of weeks.
Based in New York, the American lawyer thus underlined that the fatigue of women is a “major theme” in the many divorce cases that walk the door of his firm: an assertion which has been confirmed by several Internet users, according to what ‘reported The Independent.
“I had less work as a single mother of two children than as a married mother,” commented a user under the video.
Same story with another woman, who felt that she had leveled her quality of life by reducing her stress, comparing her ex-husband to “one less child to take care of”, we can read. However, a third also indicated that women often find themselves with the weight of divorce on their shoulders, as they have to find a lawyer, complete the application and create the co-parenting schedule.
“The reality is that it shouldn’t be the case, but many are much less stressed post-divorce,” added the lawyer, according to the British media.
On average, husbands would add seven extra hours of household chores per week to their wives, a 2016 University of Michigan study estimated, The Independent.
