The Weekly Cheek

41. What is the mental load and do you carry it?


Listen Later

In this episode, we're talking about the mental load. The mental load refers to the burden, usually carried by women, of managing all household tasks and social requirements. In your household, who makes sure the washing is done, children/pets are fed, and completes all or most life admin tasks? Women are most often conditioned to carry the mental load, but there's no reason to stick to those norms.
