The column chart illustrates the average hours of housework per week done by married women in comparison with married men
To couples without children, women are reported to spend 30 hours per week doing housework whereas this number is only 20 hours for men However, things are quite different when children enter the house In families, of one or two children, men maintain approximately the same number of time doing housework as in childless households, but women’s number of time doing housework as in 50 per week because it takes them more time to take care of their children
With families that have 3 or more children, women have to work harder They spend 55 hours a week doing housework while their husbands share with only 10
These numbers shows the unequal distribution of housework hours per week between the two sexes Therefore, if women are to gain social quality, they should first be liberated from familial responsibilities
