Bản báo cáo 1:

The column chart illustrates the average hours of housework per week done by married women in comparison with married men.

In households where there are no children, women are reported to work some 30 hours per week in housework. Men's contribution to this work averages a considerably lower 18 hours.

When children enter the household, however, the inequality becomes even more pronounced. In families of 1 - 2 children, men maintain approximately the same number of hours of housework as in childless households, but the number of hours women work in the home rise to 52 per week, much of which, no doubts, is due to childcare responsibilities.

Interestingly, when there are three or more children in the household, men are found to work even fewer hours around the house than before the appearance of the third child. Whereas women's unpaid hours rise to approximately 56 per week, the corresponding figure for men, 16, actually represents a decrease.

The chart suggests that if women are to gain social equality, they should first be liberated from familial responsibilities. This can only be done if men lend a more helpful hand to women in doing domestic chores.

Bản báo cáo 2:

The column chart illustrates the average hours of housework per week done by married women in comparison with married men.

As seen in the chart, there is the distinctive difference in the average hours of housework in households. In childless families, the gap of housework hours per week between men and women is not largely. Women do some 30 hours per week, meanwhile men's contribution in housework is about 20 hours.

In families of one or two children, however, the number of men's housework hours decreases to 15 hours, but women's number of housework rises even to 50. Undoubtedly the cause of this rise is due to childcare.

And amazingly in households with three or more children, the inequality becomes more distinct. Men work fewer hours than about 10 hours, but women's housework hours rise to 55 per week.

The chart shows that the inequality in housework between husband and wife should be resolved. It is important that women should be liberated from the unreasonable burden of familial responsibilities. And to get the target, men should do their share of housemaking.
