So, yes, having one person--regardless of gender--at home does increase the quality of life.

Perhaps for you. You can have a clean house with a cleaning woman. For me, quality of life is the being able to live life. Not having to be the one who has to clean....being able to go out to eat at a nice place and not have to cook or clean up after it....being able to enjoy my family and their company and not have to worry about the laundry, etc.
For you, that equals quality of life. But, I am sure for others, like myself, it does not. That is exactly why I said it depends on how you define it. What makes America great is that we all can have different definitions, opinions, etc. and no one can saw we are wrong. Each person needs to determine what is right for them.
BTW- even if I am home, there is no way I am cleaning. That is what I have a cleaning person for. You said it was nice for you to come home to a clean home that someone cared enough to clean for you- well, it is nice for me to come home to a clean house that my husband made me get a cleaning person to clean so that I can pursue my interests other than Pine Sol. Again, its all in the definition.
