I could accept it, if keeping a home meant actually manually doing everything. But the typical "I organise my organiser to be organised" busywork bullshit a bunch of those stay at home mega mommies do is absolute useless bullshit.
Does she garden? Does she keep her own animals? Everything home cooked, canned, preserved? Does she sew clothes, knit, crochet, make everything she can herself?

Women in 1922: Manually beating rugs, hand-washing linens and hanging to dry, growing, harvesting, and canning because you're in the middle of the Great Depression, sewing new clothes out of sackcloth.
Women in the 2022: "'Alexa, ask Roomba to vacuum. Also, send in my curbside delivery grocery order.' God I'm so oppressed by this patriarchal hell."
Even if she does all those things, it's not a 14 hour day, at least if the kids are older. Turns out kids can learn to do every houshold chore if you put in the time to teach them.
