A point of interest: these studies typically focus on parenting duties being work *inside the home* and work that is done by men outside the home (I.e., lawn care, home repairs) is not counted. Men tend to work more hours to provide for their families after having children.
Interesting! I'd argue that home repairs, lawn care, income earning, etc. are important parts of maintaining a family, obviously, but not part of actually caring for the child. A child might be better off with the parent who specializes in directly addressing their needs

Also, this division of labor is a fine arrangement on an individual level, but why isn't it more accepted to have it the other way around? I suspect we default to this because society tells men it's unmanly to be involved with nurturing children. We should change that stigma

Yes. And that’s something MRA’s do agree on, particularly those in fathers’ rights groups. There are too many accounts of fathers being harassed for being at playgrounds with their own children or cut out of parent support orgs.
