Chapter 5:
Role in The Family
According to the study "The Place of Men in the Portuguese Family"
coordinated by sociologist Karin Wall (2007):The Portuguese man is "modern" but only women take care of the washing.Over 80% of men are of the opinion that they should help more at home, but
only less than one percent of men make their own meals, while only around two
per cent makes use of the dishwasher and only 0.1 take care of their clothing. Gender is still an obstacle.
For most men, the right expression to use is "helping at home." But the house
(still) is the responsibility of women.
Men continue to make sure that their professional work is more important than
their wife’s work:
• Three in five men do not ask for the five days off to which they are entitled in
the first month after the birth of their child.• The division of maternity leave is still a rarity, only 413 men share the 120
days with the woman.• Only 3200 men are househousbands.
• The tasks carried out jointly by the couple represent only 14% of all the
domestic work. • Of single parents which represented 7% of Portuguese households in 2001,
only 0.9% are men.
The distribution of household chores between men and women is still, as a
rule, unbalanced in favour of men, although this has registered a positive
development.
