The work that women do is less valued than that of men.
विकल्प
True
False
उत्तर
This statement is true.
Explanation:
Women do a lot of work. The main responsibility for housework and caregiving tasks lies with women. Yet, the work that they do with the home is not recognized as work. It is assumed that this is something that comes naturally to women. It, therefore, does not have to be paid for. This is the main reason why our society devalues women’s work.
