What are the *criticisms* of Parsons' view? - answer✔- Young and Willmott (1962) argue that

men are now taking greater responsibility for domestic tasks and more women are becoming

wage earners

- Feminists reject Parsons' view that the division of labour is natural & they argue that is only

benefits men


What is meant by *segregated* conjugal roles? - answer✔Where the couple have separate roles:

a male breadwinner and a female homemaker - as in Parsons' view. Their leisure activities also

tend to be separate


What is meant by *joint* conjugal roles? - answer✔Where the couple share tasks such as

housework and childcare and spend their leisure time together

What did Young and Willmott find in their study of families in Bethnal Green in the 1950s? -

answer✔- That men were the breadwinners who played little part in home life and spent their

leisure time with workmates in pubs.

- Women were full-time housewives with sole responsibility for housework and childcare,

helped by their female relatives.

- The limited leisure time women had was also spent with female kin


What view do Young and Willmott take of the family? - answer✔March of Progress - they see

the family as gradually improving for all its members, becoming more equal and democratic.

They argue that there has been a long-term trend away from segregated conjugal roles and

towards joint conjugal roles and the 'symmetrical family'


What are the features of a symmetrical family? - answer✔- Women go out to work, although this

may be part-time rather than full-time

- Men now help with housework and childcare

- Couples now spend their leisure time together


What do Young and Willmott see as reasons for the rise in the symmetrical family? - answer✔-

Changing social position of women

- Geographical mobility (living away from where you grew up)

- New technology (labour-saving devices)

- Higher standards of living


What view to Feminist sociologists take on the family? - answer✔- They reject the 'march of

progress' view

- They argue that little has changed: men and women remain unequal within the family &

women still do most of the housework


What do Feminists blame for the segregated conjugal roles within the family? - answer✔They

see the inequality as stemming from the fact that the family and society are patriarchal - women

occupy a subordinate and dependent role within the family and wider society

Only 15% of husbands had a high level of participation in housework

- Only 25% had a high level of participation in childcare

What is happening within families for those who follow a *'march of progress'* view? -

answer✔Men are becoming more involved in housework and childcare, just as women are

becoming more involved in paid work outside the home

What did the BSA survey in 2013 find in relation to changing attitudes regarding conjugal roles?

- answer✔- A fall in the number of people who think it is the man's job to earn money


- A fall in the number of people who think it is the women's job to look after the home and the

family

What is the Feminist view of more women entering paid employment and the impact of this on

the division of labour? - answer✔- Reject that women going into paid employment has led to

greater equality

- Women now carry a dual burden
