Men and women employed in full-time jobs should share the responsibilities of household chores. Do you agree or Disagree?

Males and females working full-

time

should share a domestic division of labour in households.

This

essay agrees with

this

assertion and will give reasons for my stance after which a logical conclusion shall be drawn.

To begin

, I believe when house chores are equally practised it will save

time

. Both genders sharing household

activities

such

as cooking and washing equally with no dispensation on gender roles will save

time

that will be involved if it is only burdened on one side.

For instance

, men helping their spouse in the kitchen, household keeping and preparing their wards for school can mitigate the

time

that will be spent and

also

enable the wife to go to

work

early to prevent lateness in her workplace.

Furthermore

, the domestic division of labour reduces the

work

overload that mounts the females. Since women combine their

work

together with household

activities

such

as cleaning, they become occupied with many tasks which can lead to health-related problems

such

as stress which becomes detrimental to their health. When

this

is practised equally and evenly it will lessen the

work

overload which may interfere with their daily

activities

.

This

can be exemplified by the majority of men seen extending a helping hand to their wives

such

as cooking and washing so their partners can take up the different tasks in other to be relieved from the stress involved.

That is

why it is more important for males to equally perform domestic

activities

. In conclusion, I personally think individuals of different sex engaged in full-

time

jobs should practice equal domestic division of labour because it saves

time

and

also

reduces

work

overload on females.
