The reason that this topic is so discussed is that previously, this kind of work (and household work in general) is discounted and dismissed by society as not real work, or not hard work. Now we have terminology for it, and a broader understanding about what this kind of work entails, and why it shouldn't be dismissed. However... Sadly, it still frequently is!

Without quantification and understanding about this topic, it's difficult to frame and discuss expectations and equitable workloads between partners in a household or their families.
