A housewife (also known as a homemaker ) is a woman whose work is running or managing her family's home —caring for her children ; buying , cooking , and storing food for the family; buying goods that the family needs for everyday life; housekeeping , cleaning and maintaining the home; and making , buying and/or mending clothes for the family—and who is not employed outside the home (a career woman ). [1] A housewife who has children may be called a stay-at-home mother or mom . [2]
Webster's Dictionary defines a housewife as a married woman who is in charge of her household . The British Chambers's Twentieth Century Dictionary (1901) defines a housewife as "the mistress of a household; a female domestic manager; a pocket sewing kit". [3] (A small sewing kit is sometimes called a huswif, [4] : 115 housewife or hussif .) [5]
Some feminists [6] [7] and non-feminist economists (particularly proponents of historical materialism , the methodological approach of Marxist historiography ) note that the value of housewives' work is ignored in standard formulations of economic output , such as GDP or employment figures. A housewife typically works many unpaid hours a week and often depends on income from her husband's work for financial support.
In societies of hunters and gatherers , like the traditional society of the Australian aboriginal people , the men often hunted animals for meat while the women gather other foods such as grain , fruit and vegetables . One of the reasons for this division of labor is that it is much easier to look after a baby while gathering food than while hunting a fast-moving animal. Even when homes were very simple, and there were few possessions to maintain, men and women did different jobs. [ citation needed ]
In rural societies where the main source of work is farming , women have also taken care of gardens and animals around the house, generally helping men with heavy work when a job needed to be done quickly, usually because of the season.
Examples of the heavy work involving farming that a traditional housewife in a rural society would do are:
In rural studies, the word housewife is occasionally used as a term for "a woman who does the majority of the chores within a farm's compound ", as opposed to field and livestock work. [ citation needed ] .
Whether the productive contributions of women were considered "work" varied by time and culture. Throughout much of the 20th century, the women working on a family farm , no matter how much work they did, would be counted in the US census as being unemployed , whereas the men doing the same or (even less) work were counted as being employed as farmers . [8]
A career woman , as opposed to a housewife, may follow a mommy track or a shared earning/shared parenting track .
Regarding family size , a study of three Mexican cities done in 1991 came to the conclusion that there was no significant difference in the number of children in "housewife families" compared to those families with women who worked outside the home. [9]
A research based on 7733 respondents who were aged 18–65 and legally married women in 20 European countries showed men and women share less housework in countries that publicly support gender equality. On the contrary, women did more housework than men. [10]
Full-time homemakers in modern times usually share income produced by members of the household who are employed; wage-earners working full-time benefit from the unpaid work provided by the homemaker; otherwise, the performance of such work (childcare, cooking, housecleaning, teaching, transporting, etc.) could be a household expense. [11] US states with community property recognize joint ownership of marital property and income, and, unless a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement is followed, most marital households in the US operate as a joint financial team and file taxes jointly.
The method, necessity, and extent of educating housewives has been debated since at least the 20th century. [12] [13] [14] [15]
In imperial China (excluding periods of the Tang dynasty ), women were bound to homemaking by the doctrines of Confucianism and cultural norms. Generally, girls did not attend school and, therefore, spent the day doing household chores with their mothers and female relatives (for example, cooking and cleaning ). In most cases, the husband was alive and able to work, so the wife was almost always forbidden to take a job and mainly spent her days at home or doing other domestic tasks. As Confucianism spread across East Asia , this social norm was also observed in Korea , Japan and Vietnam . As foot binding became common after the Song Dynasty , many women lost the ability to work outside. [ citation needed ]
After the founding of the Republic of China in 1911, these norms were gradually loosened and many women were able to enter the workforce. Shortly thereafter, a growing number of females began to be permitted to attend schools. Starting with the rule of the People's Republic of China in 1949, all women were freed from compulsory family roles. During the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution , some women even worked in fields that were traditionally reserved for males.
In modern China, housewives are no longer as common, especially in the largest cities and other urban areas. Many modern women work simply because one person's income is insufficient to support the family, a decision made easier by the fact that it is common for Chinese grandparents to watch after their grandchildren until they are old enough to go to school. Nonetheless, the number of Chinese housewives has been steadily rising in recent years as China's economy expands. [ dubious – discuss ]
In a traditional Hindu family, the head of the family is the Griha Swami (Lord of the House) and his wife is the Griha Swamini (Lady of the House). The Sanskrit words Grihast and Grihasta perhaps come closest to describing the entire gamut of activities and roles undertaken by the homemaker. Grih is the Sanskrit root for house or home; Grihasta and Grihast are derivatives of this root, as is Grihastya . The couple lives in the state called Grihastashram or family system and together they nurture the family and help its members (both young and old) through the travails of life. The woman who increments the family tree (bears children) and protects those children is described as the Grihalakshmi (the wealth of the house) and Grihashoba (the glory of the house). The elders of the family are known as Grihshreshta . The husband or wife may engage in countless other activities which may be social, religious, political or economic in nature for the ultimate welfare of the family and society. However, their unified status as joint householders is the nucleus from within which they operate in society. The traditional status of a woman as a homemaker anchors them in society and provides meaning to their activities within the social, religious, political and economic framework of their world. However, as India undergoes modernisation, many women are in employment, particularly in the larger cities such as Mumbai , Delhi , Kolkata , Chennai , Hyderabad and Bangalore , where most women will work. The role of the male homemaker is not traditional in India , but it is socially accepted in urban areas. According to one sociologist's study in 2006, twelve percent of unmarried Indian men would consider being a homemaker according to a survey conducted by Business Today . [17] One sociologist, Sushma Tulzhapurkar, called this a shift in Indian society, saying that a decade ago, "it was an unheard concept and not to mention socially unacceptable for men to give up their jobs and remain at home." [18] However, only 22.7 percent of Indian women are part of the labor force , compared to 51.6 percent of men; thus, women are more likely to be caregivers because most do not work outside the home. [19]

Until around 1990, the North Korean government required every able-bodied male to be employed by some state enterprise . However, some 30% of married women of working age were allowed to stay at home as full-time housewives (less than in some countries in the same region like South Korea , Japan and Taiwan ; more than in the former Soviet Union , Mainland China and Nordic countries like Sweden, and about the same as in the United States [22] ). In the early 1990s, after an estimated 900,000-3,500,000 people perished in the North Korean famine , the old system began to fall apart. In some cases women began by selling homemade food or household items they could do without. Today at least three-quarters of North Korean market vendors are women. A joke making the rounds in Pyongyang goes: 'What do a husband and a pet dog have in common?' Answer: 'Neither works nor earns money, but both are cute, stay at home and can scare away burglars.' [23]
In Great Britain , the lives of housewives of the 17th century consisted of separate, distinct roles for males and females within the home. Typically, men's work consisted of one specific task, such as ploughing . While men had a sole duty, women were responsible for various, timely tasks, such as milking cows, clothing production, cooking, baking, housekeeping, childcare, and so on. Women faced the responsibility not only of domestic duties and childcare, but agricultural production . Due to their long list of responsibilities, females faced long work days with little to no sleep at busy times of year. Their work is described as, "the housewife's tasks 'have never an end', combining a daily cycle with seasonal work" . [24]
In 1911, 90% of wives were not employed in the work force . Ann Oakley , author of Woman's Work: The Housewife, Past, and Present , describes the role of a 19th-century housewife as "a demeaning one, consisting of monotonous, fragmented work which brought no financial remuneration, let alone any recognition." [25] As a middle class housewife, typical duties consisted of organizing and maintaining a home that emphasized the male breadwinner 's financial success. Throughout this time period, the role of the housewife was not only accepted in society, but a sought-after desire. [25] Eventually, women, due to the difficulty and consuming nature of these tasks, began to focus solely on one profession. By focusing on a particular niche, women spent more time outside of the home, where they could flourish independently.
As a housewife in the United Kingdom , females were encouraged to be precise and systematic when following duties. In 1869, R. K. Phillip published a household manual, titled, The Reason Why: The Domestic Science. The manual taught women how to perform certain duties, as well as the necessity behind their household chores. [26] Cookbooks and manuals provided exact measurements and instructions for baking and cooking, written in an eloquent manner. Complicated recipes required a knowledge of math – arithmetic , fractions , and ratios . Cookbooks and household manuals were written for women, therefore, eliminating t
