Below are the scientific findings I found. However, I don't personally agree with what the findings show . . . I think it has to do with us sitting on our phones too much.

This study seems sexist in many ways . . . but we're just here to report the scientific findings.

--A new study out of the University of South Carolina says women have gotten CHUBBIER . . . the reason being, that they don't do enough housework.

--For what it's worth, the team behind the study is mostly male, and the head researcher is a guy . . . but the team DOES have a few women on it. 

--In 1965, the average woman did 25.7 hours of cooking and cleaning a week.  And that meant they were up and active and burning calories.  Today, women do about HALF that, just 13.3 hours.

--And what are women doing with their spare 12 hours a week?  The study says they're sitting on the couch, watching TV, which doesn't burn calories.  The average woman burns between 132 and 360 fewer calories per day now than in 1965. 

--Do you agree with these findings?!
