Women's life!
I came across this article in NewYorkTimes sometime back and think it'll be a perfect starting post with my comment on it. I totally agree with Judith Warner on Domestic Disturbances.
Whichever part of the world U r living in, this is the same story. We may thought of West as the most modern in gender-related issues. But, this is not true.
Domestic work is always expected to be done by women. I don't think men are forbidden to do any household work. It's just the Social conditioning for centuries that keep them away.
A general opinion on this is that women do the house-keeping work better.
Why not??
This is the only thing they've been doing for centuries. Whatever work u do to a larger extent of time, u tend to do it better. It's not that, only women are good at doing that.
Every man can become good house-keepers. Only they've to start doing that!!!!
Anyways, this is not starting to happen. Only when one generation of children watch their father helping with their moms in chores, which are typically labelled as women-oriented, they'll also think of doing that.
But , I think that is a long way to go!!!!!
