I was reading this, and it got me perturbed.

Eugene Lang College will be offering a class in the fall that is based around the belief that women should get paid for “emotional labor” and doing chores around the house.
The course, called “Love and Currency,” is based on Silvia Federici’s 1975 essay “Wages Against Housework.”
“Wages for housework is only the beginning,” Federici writes, explaining that husbands should “pay us . . . not one wage, but many wages, because we have been forced into many jobs at once.”
my opinion: So men are supposed to "man up" to this?‘They say it is love, we say it is unwaged work.’
“Many forms of labor, which are often not recognized as labor, fall along lines of gender, race and class,” it continues. “Whether changing nappies and washing an endless build of up dishes, caring for elderly and infirm family members, working multiple jobs without legal protection, or bearing up under everyday sexual harassment, constricting gender norms and systemic racism, invisible labor is exhausting.”
