This week's Newsweek has an interview with Christina Romer:
Newsweek: Last fall, after 20 months at the White House, you moved back to the Bay Area with your husband, fellow economist David Romer, and your son. I suppose your job put a lot of pressure on your husband, too.
CR: He basically walked around Washington saying, "I need a job where I can pick up my son after school, and if we need to meet a plumber at the house, it's going to be me." In the first few weeks we were there, he'd have all the ingredients out and ready for me to cook dinner when I got home. But then there was one night I was making beef with broccoli at 9:30 in tears and he realized he needed to learn to cook.
They are married nearly 30 years and Christina is the one to cook, even when David sits around in the house and waits for her to come home? "I don't know how to cook" isn't a legitimate excuse. It's like "my dog ate my homework."
What a male chauvinist pig he is.
