“Few tasks are more like the torture of Sisyphus than housework, with its endless repetition: the clean becomes soiled, the soiled is made clean, over and over, day after day. The housewife wears herself out marking time: she makes nothing, simply perpetuates the present ... Eating, sleeping, cleaning - the years no longer rise up towards heaven, they lie spread out ahead, gray and identical. The battle against dust and dirt is never won."
Simone de Beauvoir - The Second Sex 1949
