Dishwashing duties can affect the quality of a relationship
(FOX 11) - The happiness of a couple could depend on something as simple as doing the dishes together.

That's according to a new report from the Non-profit Council of Contemporary Families.
But if dishwashing is split evenly women report higher levels of satisfaction in their relationship.
