Question 1: Think about your home (either your current home if you live with a partner/spouse/significant other/family or the house you grew up in) - is there a gendered component to how labor is divided? Think about the mental load cartoon and what we've read this week as you answer. Consider the following questions/categories in constructing your answer:

Question 1a: Who knows the Dr. information for the family?

Question 1b: Who knows when you're down to 1 roll of paper towels or toilet paper

Question 1c: Who thinks about birth control?

Question 1d: Who does meal planning? Grocery shopping, cooking?

Question 1e: Who knows how old your sheets and towels are?

Question 1f: Who decides what time dinner is?

Question 1g: Who knows where the thermometer is?

Question 1h: Who knows if you have cold medication or throat lozenges?

Question 1i: Who monitors laundry detergent levels?

Question 2: What is ONE policy that you would like to see implemented right now to benefit families/workers? Would your policy benefit everyone equally? How would it help families? What about people who are not married, or don't have children? Who would be left out - or how would you decide who benefits?

Question 3: If you were designing a workplace that centered the needs of a diverse workforce (in regards to gender identity, sexual orientation, family status, age, etc) what would it look like? What would the standard hours be? Would people be able to work remotely? What type of amenities/benefits would you include? For all of the details you provide, also include why you made that decision.
