Men and women employed in full-time jobs have to share evenly household chores and caring for children at home.  Do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your knowledge or experience.

Given how much time women are spending at work, the question of how much housework and

childcare

Suggestion

child care

should each marriage partner do has recently attracted a great deal of public interest, with many saying that

both

men and women should undertake equal responsibilities around the house.

This

essay will shed light on why

this

is a forward-thinking proposal. Granted, one might argue that housework and

childcare

are traditionally women’s duties.

This

is predicated on the gender stereotype that men spend more hours, and have more responsibilities at workplaces compared to their female counterparts;

hence

,

childcare

and domestic tasks are deemed to be for women.

However

,

this

line of reasoning is flawed in the sense that nowadays, the working time of female workers is similar to that of male employees.

Therefore

, it seems to be unfair if a woman has to work as much as a man and assume

childcare

responsibilities as well as other chores. To add

further

credence to my assertion, I note that evenly sharing household tasks and

childcare

can be largely beneficial to the family life and

society

as a whole. With regard to the former,

this

proposal could help strengthen the family bonds.

This

can be seen in way burnt out working women would be content as not having to spend hours preparing meals for the family or bathing the baby, to name but two, and children would benefit from being cared for by

both

parents.

As a result

, equally sharing domestic tasks could facilitate better understandings in the family, and prevent potential domestic conflicts and an increase in the number of

such

families would help ensure the stability of

society

.

Additionally

,

this

proposal could assist in removing gender discrimination, fostering a fairer

society

where

both

genders are respected

both

at

workplace

Suggestion

the workplace

and in the home. In conclusion, for the reasons elaborated above, it stands to reason that if

both

genders undertake the same amount of work in the home,

this

can be advantages to not solely family but

also

society

.
