If a man rests after paid work and a woman does care work after paid work how should this be understood?

Correct answer: Double burden and gendered division of care work

This situation shows a double burden on women. After doing paid work, the woman also performs unpaid care work, such as cooking or caring for children and older family members, while the man rests. Thus, care work is divided along gender lines rather than shared equally. Exam tip: assess total work by adding paid work and unpaid care work.
