We use a lab-in-the-field experiment to investigate intra-couple labor supply decisions and the division of housework … decide upon the allocation of an unpaid task serving as our proxy for housework. In our gender neutral lab, we find tax …-effects only on men’s labor supply but not on women’s and no gender differences in the allocation of housework. Instead, the …
