A friend emailed me this medical study that indicates breast cancer risk is higher for women that perform no housework than those who do. I have a few issues with this study:
- The sampling of women who actually do not perform housework would be too small for scientific evaluation.
- Does breast cancer know if you exercise regularly but have a cleaning person tackle your housework?
- With these results breast cancer should be epidemic in men.
- Who sponsored this study? Surely it was the manufacturers of cleaning products and vacuum cleaners, with the full support of the male population.
- Am I now to believe I may smoke and drink all I want as long as I make certain the house is spic and span?
- Has anyone checked the breast cancer rates of maids?
I have surmised that a British scientist didn’t want to do dishes and told his wife, “it’s not that I’m lazy, I just don’t want you to die.”
Hire me a maid, I risk it!
