So 'workaholic' is a word for someone who dedicates almost their entire life to their job & loves it. Do we need 'homeaholic' (or something)

Just met another person presenting being at home *all the time* as women's role & equivalent to men's of going to work for 40 hrs a week.
-
Which it clearly isn't coz in this depiction men don't stay at work *all the time* They come home & spend similar amount of time with family
-
If they don't but spend nearly all their waking hours at work, they are a workaholic & have a right to be but we don't advocate it for all
-
Similarly, the women who they advocate spending nearly all their waking hours parenting & doing domestic stuff would be ....homeaholics?
-
Which again is their right if they want to do this (and have a partner who wants to support them to do it) but it is advocated for everyone?
-
So this would seem to be not only an ethical failure 'Men shld do this & women shld do that* but not even consistent internally.

Not all workaholics love their job. I'm not even sure most do. I've known and worked with some and they are often miserable at work or play.
-
Well, I;m talking about people who choose to be workaholics just like people who choose to be stay at home mums. Not those coerced.

Like weekends etc.. Or it will simply be a privilege of the most wealthy members of society.

Incentive for big companies/mgrs is not to provide opportunity for work/life balance. i suspect it is something we will have to fight 4.

I think some use it as an escape from lives they don't like very much. Unhealthy work/life balance does not make one more productive.
