Universally domestic labor refer to duties mainly performed by women and intended to provide the family with the daily required services . It is an inevitable work that expand over the twenty four hours of the day, providing care, food, clothing, and shelter. The same understanding applies in many third world countries and burden women with this vast responsibility. For women in rural areas domestic chores may include walking many miles to fetch fire wood and water.
It is to be emphasised that the most important role for women is their contribution to build the future generations.
The fact that the women are bestowed with the natural ability of bearing, should be considered an asset to add to their value, rather than deprive women from their pre-acquired rights as humans.
The Devine as well as other religions, in their primary call did not ignore the importance of the natural role of women.
An example is that the Muslim religion value the social status of the mother three times than that of the father. It is imperative that a breast feeding mother is to be materially remunerated. The depth of such guidelines were blurred over the years. It is time for modern thinkers to reclaim such values.
