Re Emma Beddington’s article (Working from home? It’s so much nicer if you’re a man, 1 June), from day one of the Covid lockdown, my husband got the spare bedroom with the spare desk and two huge computer screens, whether he was doing technical work, meetings or just email. He would make a huge scene if he had to work on his laptop for just one hour. Meanwhile, I was stuck at the kitchen table with my mini laptop, including on days that I had to do technical work, big presentations or long meetings.

Now he is retired and I work mostly at the office. On the rare days I work from home, I still work at the kitchen table, but he may let me work in his office for a couple of hours if I have to do some focused work. How nice of him! And I am an alleged feminist married to an alleged feminist ally.

I have the lovely office one and a half days a week and my hubby, soon to be at home five days a week, gets a bedroom downstairs with a garden view. They don’t get their way all the time!
