Fair Play
A Game-Changing Solution for When You Have Too Much to Do
A card-based system for splitting domestic work, built on the idea that one partner's time is treated as infinite.
Rodsky started with a spreadsheet of everything she was invisibly carrying and turned it into a system: a deck of cards representing every domestic and childcare task, dealt between partners, with the rule that whoever holds a card owns it end to end rather than waiting to be asked. The argument underneath is about time being treated as finite for one partner and infinite for the other. Practical, and blunt about whose hours get respected.
