What’s Love Got To Do With It? Equality, Equity, Commitment and Women’s Marital Quality 

"Recent work indicates that marital quality declined over much of the past four decades,
although the rate of decline seems to have leveled off in the 1990s"
"we saw evidence that women who are more egalitarian-minded and more upset
with the division of household labor receive lower levels of positive emotion work from their
husbands, perhaps because they are more likely to initiate conflict with their husbands. Thus,
rising expectations among women for marital equality may also have the unintended effect of
lowering investments in marital emotion work on the part of men; this, in turn, may be
associated with declines in marital quality for American women"
