In her new book, All the Rage: Mothers, Fathers, and the Myth of Equal Partnership, Darcy Lockman includes quantitative as well as qualitative data to back up her findings regarding gender inequality and child rearing. She includes vignettes of real situations between couples illustrating the functionality, on a wide spectrum, of contemporary domestic partnerships involving children.
