How have gender roles changed?

Answer

i think alot of changes have been made for both men and women, especially in the home. Men and women are often both responsible for the cooking, cleaning, and laundry (traditionally women's work) and they are often both responsible for the maintaining of vehicles, appliances and the lawn (which was once considered the responsibility of men). Marriage has become more of a partnership.


This may be due to women entering the work force, society's greater affluency and education, the divorce rate, and the feminist movement. At the same time, men still dominate in the workplace in that men receive higher degrees of education, leadership, and get paid more. Women are still primarily responsible for the bearing and rearing of children and fill more leadership positions that work with children or charities.



Men and women still share the responsibilities of child rearing more than ever in history More men are enjoying their relationships with their children instead of just being the breadwinner and authority figure in their children's lives.



Still, among the poor and uneducated, the traditional roles are more prevalent and dominate society. However, there is pressure among popular culture and television for men and women to be more androgynous (having more male and female traits/roles).
